We are so excited to share our NEW Damask Wedding Invitations Suite.  This beautiful new design is by one of our newest designers, Jill Johnson. We are super excited to welcome her to our team and are doubly excited to spotlight her first submissions to us: Damask Detail.  Her sample creation is done in lime green and deep purple, but this design looks great in black and white, yellow and red or any color combination that strikes your fancy. The clean lines and beautiful damask design make for a great way to invite guests to your wedding.

I spy - A detective party!
Party Ideas and Inspiration

Detective and Spy parties are all the rage right now, and what could be even more on trend then a fancy mustache? We have combined the two in our new detective party invitation we are calling: Top Secret!

Top Secret Birthday Invitation

Once you've got your invitation, you've got to get down to investigating how to throw the perfect party! Here are some great ideas for you:

Start with a scavenger hunt! If it's a party held at your house, print out a list of objectives that your little detectives can search for. If you are planning on having your party at a park, why not make the point of the hunt to actually find where the party is? Depending on the age level of your guests you can plant clues that are easy to follow, or that may take extra tools to decipher!

You can outfit your party guests with party tools that can also serve as favors to take home. Why not make some of the clues on your scavenger hunt teeny tiny? You can give out pads of paper to track clues and magnifying glasses too.

 

Once your guests have found the party, or finished the scavenger hunt, it's time for the fun to really begin!

Bridal Luau Shower - Take ours and make it yours
Take Ours and Make it Yours

A Luau is the theme and the party is a Bridal Shower. The bride's wedding colors are fuchsia and silver. Pair the two together and you get a beautiful, yet elegant Hawaiian Bridal Shower Invitation. The host contacted us looking for a Luau themed invitation. She was thrilled when she learned that she could take any of our invitations and change the colors to that of the Bride's wedding scheme. She chose an invitation from our wedding line and truly made it a one-of-a-kind. See how we transformed our Hawaiian Wedding Invitation into a fun Bridal Shower Luau invitation.

In addition we created a matching insert card requesting guests to bring a recipe an dish to the bridal shower.

Country Wedding Inspiration
Wedding Ideas and Inspiration

I love the idea of a country wedding: big open fields, old barns, great music and the crickets chirping come to mind when I think western wedding. It just makes you want to put on your boots, get ready to dance and have a great time.

This gorgeous setting is so inviting with the bistro lighting, the large white drapes and large initials above the entrance to the ceremony and the tables with (what looks like) peonies.  It just looks downright fun and beautiful.

I love this idea to re-purpose an old window.  Take some white window paint and write guests names and table numbers.  Absolutely charming:

This is such a great idea for seating at a country or Western wedding.  Just wrap bales of hay with fabric and make yourself a fabulous seating area for the ceremony.

I love this idea for holding guests place cards. Just get some logs, saw in some slits and you have a great display:

This barn just looks fun and I love how they painted on an old board and hung it on the barn:

Of course, with Western Weddings you can have a lot of fun with your wedding invitations.  Invite guests to "don their spurs" or "shine their boots" for your big day.  Here are some great Western Wedding Invitations options from us that looks so great (and available in different color combinations):

This old west wedding invitation has an old feel to it with the torn edge and the barbed wire inspired edge:

This western wedding invitation looks like an old poster that would hang in the Saloon:

Or this mason jar wedding invitation, has a modern spin but still has a country wedding feel:

Check out all our western wedding invitations and see if they fit the bill for your big day.

These ideas not only show fabulous western wedding examples, but also show that western weddings are anything but casual or hokey. We hope you have a great day!

 

 

 
Monkey Baby Shower
Party Ideas and Inspiration

There is so much monkey business going on that it makes perfect sense that so many folks would choose a monkey baby shower theme to help celebrate a friend's great news.  This complete monkey baby shower article is full of great ideas and tips (including freebies, menus, and tutorials) but I thought I would just give a few more here:

If you're going for a sock monkey theme, this great post from giggles galore is worth a read.  Her table setting is extra cute as well:

Urbanity Studio's sock monkey invitation fits this theme perfectly:

If you're not into a monkey made from a sock, then maybe a more cuddly monkey would do the trick.  Look at this incredible cake from cakebaker1978:

Or this fabulous inspiration board from thepartydress.net:

The swingin' monkey baby shower invitation goes with this style well:
