Every wedding we work on is such a different experience and always such a treat to see everything come together. For Anna and Ross’s wedding we had the joy of not only creating their wedding day paper goods and day of details, but also had a hand in designing items for their rehearsal dinner too! I love when we have the opportunity to design items for an entire wedding weekend as it really allows for an immersive experience as details are intentionally woven throughout the events.
Rehearsal Dinner Details
The rehearsal dinner took place at Noelle Hotel Nashville, which is a gorgeous boutique hotel in downtown. A clear welcome sign with a gold frame greeted guests that read “Welcome to the Night Before”. Light blue ribbons tied at the top corners of the sign gave a subtle hint to the colors that would be seen throughout the evening. We also created the seating chart that mimicked the clear welcome sign with a gold frame and blue ribbons. This was a lovely touch and a foreshadowing of the details to come on their wedding day.
As guests sat down to the rehearsal dinner, the tables were decorated with fresh flowers, greenery, and flickering candle light, which made the light blue and white table numbers and place cards we created stand out beautifully. The entire evening unfolded seamlessly and was a perfect prelude to the wedding day ahead.
Elegant Letter-Pressed Wedding Invitations
Their classic, letter-pressed wedding invitations set the tone for an elegant evening. The custom monogram on their Save The Dates and Wedding Programs would also make an appearance on other wedding details we created, creating a cohesive design that we just love!
Their wedding took place at the stunning Richland Country Club in Nashville, TN, which is a beautiful venue with a breathtaking property.
Mirrored Wedding Seating Chart
Their wedding reception featured a three-piece mirrored seating chart. The arched mirrors with gold frames were lettered by hand. A fresh flower display of white, cream, and various pink flowers sat at the base of the seating chart making it an eye-catching display.
Table Numbers
Colorful flower centerpieces decorated the center of each table. The table numbers we designed elegantly completed the tablescape. The white cards with numbers in a dusty blue color were displayed in gold holders tying the look together.
Custom Wedding Favors
Anna and Ross decided on custom drink koozies and matches for their wedding favors. To make them stand out, we put their custom monogram as seen on the invitations and programs on one side of the koozie and match box, and the other side featured their new shared name, The Stitts.
Engraved Cake Serving Set
One of my favorite items from this wedding was the hand-engraved cake serving set, which was a gift from the Mother of the Bride to the couple. The knife was engraved with their names and wedding date, while the cake server was hand engraved with a custom monogram.
Tying all the details together for this wedding weekend was so fun. At White Ink Calligraphy, we love creating experiences for our couples and their guests by artfully weaving threads of the design throughout the weddding day to create a cohesive look.
Congratulations, Anna and Ross, and thank you for trusting us with your wedding invitations and day of details for both your wedding day and the night before!

When designing paper goods and day-of details for weddings, we always strive to bring cohesion to the design. We did just that for this Cherokee Dock Nashville wedding. The couple, Madison and Jackson, dreamed of a celebration filled with soft spring colors, thoughtful touches, and a hint of fun. We took their ideas and wove their vision and colors into every element we created, bringing their vision to life. From the invitation suite to the late-night snack boxes, this wedding was full of creativity, color, and personality.
A Soft, Spring-Inspired Invitation Suite
We started with an invitation suite inspired by airy spring hues. The palette centered around light blue, white, and a soft sherbet orange, which instantly set a fresh and joyful tone for the day.
For the envelopes, we used a dusty blue color that was the foundation of the wedding day design. The envelopes featured the couple’s monogram and a custom floral-patterned envelope liner created with the wedding’s signature orange hue accent color.
The main invitation was white with light blue calligraphy. The details card was similar but stood out with a thick sherbet-orange border. The entire suite was then wrapped in a vellum band in the same light orange color showcasing a custom sketch of Cherokee Dock in a deep blue.
The suite felt polished yet playful and gave guests an early glimpse into the wedding day ahead.
Wedding Day-of Details
For the ceremony, we designed a white welcome sign featuring sherbet orange lettering, keeping everything soft, clean, and cohesive.
Guests also received program fans, which served a dual purpose of sharing the ceremony details while offering much-needed relief from the Tennessee heat. Practical and beautiful—our favorite combination.
Fun, Colorful Details at the Bar
We created bar inserts showcasing the signature light blue color pattern. This same pattern could later be found on the table linens created seamless design that carried through the wedding day. On top of the bar, guests found custom orange napkins and white stir sticks with an orange flower sketch, bringing an extra pop of color. It’s always the small touches that make the biggest impact.
Seating Chart Display
We created a framed seating chart wall with a gallery light, giving it the look of a curated art installation. The clean, structured design brought an elevated feel to the reception entrance.
Reception Details That Tied Everything Together
As guests entered the reception, they located their seats using the frosted acrylic table numbers and white place cards we designed. Notice anything familiar? Here are the table linens I mentioned earlier featuring the same light blue pattern from the bar fronts! The repeating pattern created a seamless, intentional design, which is our speciality.
We also designed the frosted cups used throughout the evening, which doubled as wedding favors. Each cup featured the Cherokee Dock sketch from the vellum band, this time printed in light orange, paired with the couple’s initials and wedding date in soft blue. It was the perfect blend of chic and fun.
A Playful Late-Night Snack Moment
The wedding ended with a little late night snack of burgers and fries that were served in custom burger and fry boxes we designed! The white burger boxes featured a bold orange circle centered on the lid with the couple’s monogram in white. The fry boxes leaned retro with white-and-red stripes and a yellow circle holding the same monogram.
This final detail brought so much personality and nostalgia. It was impossible not to smile when you saw them. Not only that, but they were truly so much fun to create.
A Spring Wedding Filled With Creativity and Color
This Cherokee Dock celebration was the perfect mix of polished design, soft springtime color, and playful, personalized details. Every piece from the invitations to food packaging was created with intention and cohesive design in mind. It was an honor to bring Madison and Jackson’s wedding vision to life.

It was such a joy to design classic black and white wedding invitations and day-of details for Eva and Francesco’s Saint Elle Wedding. The entire celebration centered around an timeless and elevated black-and-white palette, and our paper goods became the thread that tied everything together. Everything from the playful save the dates that imitated a plane ticket, to the meaningful displays guests interacted with throughout the day was created with purpose. Eva and Francesco infused their personalities and story into every detail, giving us the opportunity to create something meaningful, elevated, and uniquely them.
Classic, Elevated Invitations With a Modern Edge
Their invitation suite laid the foundation for the black-and-white theme, with a modern structure and layered textures. Their suite was proof that modern doesn’t mean minimal. Eva & Francesco wanted a suite that felt personal, polished, and completely their own. So we leaned into sculptural shapes, high-contrast tones, and luxe gold foil to make every piece feel intentional. We designed the main invitation in a white tombstone shape for a striking yet classic focal point. The additional paper pieces layered neatly into the suite, and each card alternated in color of white, black, and cream, indicating the main colors of their wedding day. It was the perfect balance of clean, elevated, and effortlessly chic.
And don’t miss the save the date; designed to look like a plane ticket for their destination-inspired day. A first-class way to kick things off, if you ask us.
Seating Chart Wall Featuring Their Engagement Photos
This was a first for us, and now we’re obsessed! When the bride asked if we could include their engagement photos on the seating chart, we said absolutely yes. We had fun with this request, designing a seating chart that became an instant showstopper. The result was a black and white moment that felt like part art gallery, part seating chart, and fully them.
The sleek black display wall, we added the white lettering to display the guest names and their table assignment. Then on each side, framing the display we showcased an engagement photo. At the top corner of the display, their names, Eva & Francesco, framed the design beautifully. On the opposite side, we added a sweet personal touch with the phrase: “Tennessee made us sweethearts. Find your seat and let’s celebrate.”It added warmth, storytelling, and just the right amount of Southern charm.
A Cowboy Hat Guestbook Wall
It’s no secret that Nashville is all about country music. To honor a bit of their story, personality, and the city where they tied the knot, they included a cowboy hat guestbook wall, which might have been my favorite detail of the entire day. Not only was it unique and memorable, it created a playful and completely memorable moment for guests, as they couldn’t wait to leave their mark.
The black display wall featured their last name, “The Pulvinos,” in bold white lettering centered at the top. Below, we mounted one black and one white cowboy hat for guests to sign, along with a small cocktail table placed in front to hold pens. It perfectly captured the couple’s love for Nashville while remaining clean and elevated.
Menus, Bar Signage, & Table Numbers
To round out the day-of details, we carried the black-and-white palette through everything including the welcome sign and classic white menus set against black paper at each place setting. On the elegant tablescape were the table numbers we created that coordinated with the seating chart. The custom bar signage we did featured an adorable illustration of their dog.
Every piece tied back to the invitation suite and the classic, black-and-white destination theme, creating a cohesive, high-end design experience from the moment guests arrived.
This Saint Elle wedding was such a beautiful example of how a classic palette can still feel fresh, modern, and deeply personal. Between the black-and-white details, meaningful installations, and thoughtful touches throughout the day, Eva and Francesco created a celebration that was elevated but still uniquely theirs. It was such an honor to bring their vision to life by designing their invitations and day-of-details.

This Nashville wedding at The Cordelle was full of personality, color, and creative design. It perfectly reflected the couple’s playful spirit and love for music. As a team that loves weaving meaning into every detail, we had the best time bringing their vision to life through a collection of custom stationery and day-of details that felt both fun and elevated.
Fun and Playful Invitations
The couple lives in New York but loves the city of Nashville, and chose it as their wedding destination! Their invitation suite set the tone from the very beginning. We combined blue calligraphy on crisp white paper and lavender envelopes. The light green details card and soft pink rehearsal dinner card added pops of color and gave the suite a fresh, fun, playful feel.
Rehearsal Dinner Welcome Sign
For the rehearsal dinner, guests were welcomed with a custom sign that introduced the weekend’s colorful aesthetic. The border design on the welcome sign also mirrored the border found on the rehearsal dinner card from the invitation suite. It’s truly these tiny details that make your wedding day and that we love to include.
Vinyl Record Wedding Details at The Cordelle
One of our favorite elements was the seating chart wall, which we created entirely from real vinyl records. The couple love vinyl records and color, so naturally we paired the two and leaned into the city’s musical energy while highlighting their love story. Each guest’s name and table assignment were displayed on the vinyl record, and each album cover artwork depicted a special moment in their love story! All of this was beautifully displayed on a white installation with The Beatles song lyrics “All you need is love” written above the display.
We kept the vinyl record theme going by using them as table numbers as well, tying the whole concept together beautifully. I just love these design concepts that are carried throughout the day! At the dinner table, you could also find the custom menus we created tucked into light pink napkins.
To honor Nashville’s creative roots, we also designed a hatch print–inspired poster for the guestbook. Guests were able to sign the poster as a keepsake for the couple.
This wedding was such a joy to design! We love creating wedding details that reflect the couple and tell a story from beginning to end, and this Cordelle wedding was the perfect example of that.

Recently featured in The Wren, this Cedarmont Farm wedding editorial was an absolute dream to create for. The entire design concept centered around texture, warmth, and timeless romance, and we wanted every detail of the paper goods and signage to reflect that. I am in love with the results from these Cedarmont Farm textured wedding details.
A Warm, Earthy Vision for This Cedarmont Farm Wedding
Set among the rolling hills of Franklin, Tennessee, Cedarmont Farm is a venue that beautifully blends historic charm with modern touches. Its elegant interiors made it the perfect backdrop for this editorial. Our goal was to pull as much texture as possible into each stationery and signage element.
Elegant and Classic Textured Invitation Suite
The invitation suite set the tone for the event with handmade, textured paper and a classic wax seal for an organic yet elevated look. We paired the suite with light tan envelopes. The combination of warm neutrals and refined materials perfectly echoed the editorial’s color palette inspired by Pantone’s Mocha Mousse.
Day-of Details: Fabric Signage
For the bar signage and seating chart, we continued the theme of texture and flow with custom fabric signage, which brought a sense of cohesion to the space. The seating chart flowed in the wind as was placed outside in the seating area. The bar sign was a statement piece as it draped over the front of the bar listing all the beverages available.
Fabric continued to take center stage as we created fabric menus that draped effortlessly across each place setting, adding softness and movement to the tablescape.
To complement the other design elements, we also incorporated leather place cards. Each detail worked together to create a cohesive visual narrative that invited you to see and feel the design. This vibe was enhanced by the muted floral tones and boho-inspired flower arrangements that decorated the space adding movement and beauty.
It was a dream to collaborate with such a talented team of wedding professionals and bring this vision to life.

I am so excited to share the details from this timeless black and white wedding at The Trillium Venue in East Tennessee. There is so much to love about this wedding, from the breathtaking views of the Great Smoky Mountains to the detailed artwork and wine seating chart we had the joy of designing. This wedding had a modern, romantic vibe that paired effortlessly with the venue’s architecture, floor-to-ceiling windows, and panoramic backdrop. It’s easy to see why Kaitlan and Michael chose The Trillium as the setting for their gorgeous wedding day.
We had the honor of designing the couple’s custom invitations and day-of wedding details. Every element reflected the elegant, timeless, and classic vision they had for their day.
Black and White Invitation Suite with Custom Artwork
The invitation suite was truly a work of art. Designed in a classic black-and-white palette, the suite featured elegant typography and a custom details card with artwork of significant places from the couple’s wedding weekend.
We designed artwork of The Pines, the charming venue where the rehearsal dinner took place, and The Trillium, where their wedding day unfolded. The event timeline included playful illustrations for food, cocktails, music, and more, giving guests a preview of all that was to come.
A sleek black band held the suite together featuring the couple’s names and wedding date in white. It was simple, refined, and elevated and just like the celebration itself. I love how this wedding invitation set the tone for their wedding day.
Wine-Inspired Seating Chart
One of our favorite details was the wine bottle seating chart wall, inspired by the bride’s vision. She expressed early on that she dreamed of having a wine seating chart. And we always try to make our clients’ dreams a reality! To make her vision to come to life, we designed and created a packable display that could be transported from Nashville to East Tennessee.
The bride’s father and the groom came to pick up the display before the wedding day, and you could tell it was bonding time for them! They were the absolute sweetest. The father of the bride even shared a little about his upcoming speech for the wedding leaving us all teary-eyed!
At the wedding, the display featured three rows of three sleek black shelves mounted on a crisp white wall. The nine wine bottles featured each guest’s name in alphabetical order along with their assigned on a custom wine label. Greenery was woven throughout the display for a natural, romantic finish. Beside it stood a clean white title sign with the couple’s last name, The Hauns, and the words “Please Be Seated” in classic black lettering.
Day-of Details: Wedding Signage
Every detail carried through the couple’s timeless aesthetic. Greeting guests with elegance was the wedding welcome sign, which was a gold-framed mirrored sign featuring “Forever Starts Here” in white calligraphy at the top, along with the couple’s names and wedding date at the bottom.
We also created two different bar signs. One was a modern black acrylic sign that listed available drink options in white lettering, keeping things sleek.
The other was a white specialty cocktail sign with black lettering and illustrations of the couple’s signature drinks, which included an Espresso Martini, Old Fashioned, and Blackberry Lemonade.
Timeless Black and White Wedding Details
The Trillium Venue is truly stunning inside and out. Even from inside, guests can still take in the scenic mountain views through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The tablescapes at the reception wove their timeless black and white theme with crisp white napkins sitting atop black plates. black place cards with white calligraphy created a striking contrast. White floral centerpieces and flickering candlelight elevated the romance of the setting.
Every piece of stationery and signage was designed to reflect the couple’s elegant and classic vision, while also including a touch of personality. Weaving in custom details throughout their wedding day added personality, shared their story, and set the stage for a truly unforgettable wedding day.
Kaitlan and Michael, thank you for letting us be a part of your special day!
