"Can't repeat the past?
Why of course you can!"
When your venue transports your guest to a glamorous time where art was geometric and symmetrical,
your invitations and stationery should do the same. Custom line art of the building paired with a monogram and custom deco patterns made for an elegant and new Gatsby event.
Bonus points if you notice the wedding dress detailing on the sides of the building for an extra custom touch.

mate for life
penguins being a funny part of this couple's love story inspired me to create custom art that matched the daintiness of this event with a touch of whimsy. Hand drawn penguins and florals were cut out to make lace like patterns on the seating chart. Penguins were turned into florals for the menus!

"loud" colors for
thunderous beauty
For this invitation suite the bold colors reflected the heritage of the couple and the vibrancy of the event. The ceiling of the Cooper Hewitt provided inspiration for the tiled artwork and watercolor. A custom building drawing and watercolor also customized this suite. The menu was truly an art piece featuring vegetation and landmarks from the couples respective countries to be represented. All together a stunning combination.

birds of a feather
This love story began with the grandparents of the bride. Grandpa commissioned the geese stature in Smale Park as a gift to grandmother, Father had it replicated as a gift to mother, and I became the third artist to replicate this beautiful art piece.
The watercolor artwork and line art was used throughout the stationery, even providing inspiration for the monogram. Telling a story for special guest who listen with their eyes and hearts.

the "l" train
Celebrating Philly means indulging in murals.
Every piece of this suite is a mural reference, from the save the date to the huge mural seating chart. Watercolor florals in exploding shades of joy really captured this dynamic couple who loved art! I loved painting and imagining for E&N!

a pinky promise is forever
Shades of pink and blush were the inspiration for my watercolor paintings used for this suite. I was inspired by the sweetness of the couple's use of pinky promises throughout their dating. The venue painting on the outside of the invitation showed guest what the estate would feel like on the wedding day with loose pink expressionism.

london pineapples
expressionism captured the essence of the event. Watercolor florals and gradients painted the picture for the dramatic night that celebrated art and love. If you look closely you can see the pineapple and Eiffel Tower icon in the borders. One symbolizing each mate.
