2011 Wedding Invite & Coordinating Items... A look back

I was able to work with some REALLY fabulous brides last year!! I love the result of all of their invites, each very unique! 

I was really privileged to work with Jenni... she let my creativity flow and even asked me to coordinate the wedding reception site day-of. It was SO fun to see everything come together and it was BEAUTIFUL... just like the bride herself!! 

Thanks for letting me in on your big day, ladies. You are the BEST!!

Here are just two of the sets of invites I did...

Cupcakes & Polka Dots!

So, it's really been hard for me to find the time to blog! After moving, we've been working on getting the house just right... I got ANOTHER new job-one I am VERY fond of and I even told my boss he will have to fire me because I am NEVER leaving ;) Then, we had the holidays. 

I have been steadily getting orders for all sorts of goodies- and by FAR my favorite things to get are CUSTOM requests. 

Kelli contacted me about doing a couple items for her daughters' 1st birthday party, which was held November 13th... it turned into a complete party package and before the end of it I was shipping 3 HUGE boxes to Kelli!! I LOVED every second of making these items and just added them to my shop as a new collection because they are SO darn cute!! 

I asked Kelli to let me share some pics here on my blog of the beautiful party she threw for little Olivia. 

Links for all her vendors are at the end! :) 

Enjoy!!

I asked Kelli why she chose this theme for the party:
"I came up with the theme because I wanted her 1st birthday to be timeless and classic. Pink, polka dots, and cupcakes should never go out of "style"." 
Well said, Kelli!!


Her very adorable birthday invite which started it all!


Outdoor decor... I just adore these lanterns!

Table set ups... sooo cute to include pics of the babe all over and I love the bubbles in buckets for the kiddies!


And last but certainly the MOST important thing... the little sweetie, Olivia Ann, herself!! What a face!


Kelli also mentioned that the "polka dots" on the picture frames that were on the tables and throughout the inside of the house had some of Olivia's finger prints on them and those were gifts for the adults. 


She used a variety of Olivia's newborn, 3m, 6m, 9m, and 12m pics as displays all over as seen above. 

Kelli- thank you SO much for sharing all of these amazing photos with me! I LOVED working with you and hope we can work together again in the future!!
