After working with Lee Kleinhelter (owner of Pieces, Inc) on her wedding, we were thrilled with  Southern Accents (sadly, now gone) asked us to design a baby shower for a feature spread, since Lee was expecting her son Holden at the time it was a perfect pairing! We went back to using her signature kelly green color, and modern touches like a simple font, and Jonathan Adler ceramic accents.  The shower took place at the famed Swan Coach House in Atlanta, Ga. so we had fun making such a traditional venue work for this modern maven. Of course, we brought Liz Banfield back to shoot the day for us.

We’re taking a look back at this perfect pocket sized welcome booklet for a Charleston wedding weekend. All the important information for the weekend events and a guests’ guide to Charleston along with personal photos of the couple were all laid out and designed by Lettered Olive and Soiree to coordinate with the rest of the wedding paper design.  The couple chose some of their favorite restaurants they like to dine in while visiting and filled in with recommendations from us.  Any “sights”, and favorite shops and art galleries they had seen over the years and enjoyed were mentioned.  Then, research was done on local historic facts, and recipes from the wedding caterer were shared.  These were waiting for guests in the welcome bags when they arrived in Charleston, and were the perfect size for men to keep in their pockets, or ladies to toss in a bag.

Time for another installment of our Monogram Monday series. Our brides keep asking for custom monograms and to incorporate them into their weddings… Well we must oblige of course.  Here are just some of the fun ways we’ve used monograms in our events. Thank goodness our sister graphic design and printing company, Lettered Olive is a master of monogram design! All photos by Liz Banfield.
