Wedding Planning: Branding

January 25, 2014 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Celebrate, DIY Wedding, Weddings

I love design, and my fiance happens to work in marketing. Between the two of us, I knew it wouldn’t be difficult to come up with a ‘wedding brand.’ We knew we wanted something classic yet fun (think JCrew meets Kate Spade). Our main color is navy, which keeps the overall look classy while still […]

Wedding Planning: Mood Board

Wedding Mood Board

The beginning planning stages of any wedding (or party) can be incredibly overwhelming. I find that it can be helpful to begin by creating a mood board. Different from a style board (we’ll be discussing this later) a mood board simply consists of images that catch your attention, details that you want to include, and […]

Beginning to plan your wedding, #11cupcakes, #weddingplanning, #wedding budget

Rustic Wedding Invitations

December 4, 2013 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Celebrate, Rustic Wedding, Weddings

I wanted to be careful not to over-do the ‘fishing’ theme of this wedding, so I tried to stick to vintage photos and fun rustic accents. Below are the invitations I designed using the same photograph that I had taken earlier of our lake. The invitations and rsvp cards are still available on etsy here. […]

Rustic Wedding Logo

I designed a simple logo using aspects of nature and elegant fonts. We used this logo on many pieces of the invitation, as well as around the reception.

A Rustic Wedding

November 29, 2013 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Celebrate, Rustic Wedding, Weddings

My brother got married last summer and I had the pleasure of helping with a few wedding things. He and his wife love fishing and being outdoors, so we went with a rustic elegance wedding theme, bringing in the lakes of Minnesota and their love of fishing. Below are the Save the Dates I created […]

She insisted on dressing up like Reba McEntire, and thanks to her new love of country music I now know all the words to ‘Consider Me Gone’. Happy Halloween from the Queen of Country Music and her dinosaur sidekick. 🎃🎤🦖
