When it comes to wedding design, few things are as breathtaking as the bold colors and traditions of South Asian weddings. This luxury styled wedding at Four Seasons Hotel in Nashville, planned by Let’s Do this Events, was the perfect celebration of vibrancy, culture, and elegance. With an incredible vendor team and a stunning vision, the day overflowed with bright pinks, oranges, yellows, and rich details that set the stage for a joyful and vibrant Hindu wedding.
An Invitation Suite Full of Color
For this editorial, we designed a stationery collection that embraced bold color and cultural patterns in a modern, luxurious way. The invitation suite began with an orange envelope, paired with a striking yellow patterned envelope liner. That same yellow pattern became the base of the invitation, creating a cohesive and eye-catching design.
We layered orange paper to match the envelope and lettered the details in crisp white calligraphy. A standout detail was the wedding weekend Details booklet, which featured a pink and light green paisley motif accented with orange, yellow, and cream ombre pom poms attached by hand. This touch added personality, texture, and fun.
Custom Menus
To carry the design through the reception, we created custom menus that incorporated the same yellow pattern from the invitation suite. Each menu featured a layered look with yellow patterned paper beneath bold pink cardstock, topped with elegant white lettering. Of course, the menus wouldn’t be complete without their playful touch – more ombre pom poms!
The Seating Chart
The seating chart wall was a true centerpiece of the event design. Each guest’s name was displayed in pink lettering on either side of the installation, bordered by the paisley design carried over from the stationery. In the center, the couple’s monogram, names, and “Please Be Seated” were framed by the same yellow pattern first introduced in the invitations.
The result was a luxury seating display that beautifully tied together the invitation suite, menus, and overall event design. Surrounded by bold floral arrangements in pinks, oranges, purples, and yellows, this installation made a lasting impression.
Cohesive Design from Start to Finish
From invitations to menus to the seating chart, the stationery details for this Four Seasons Nashville wedding were carefully curated to celebrate the colorful beauty of Hindu weddings while maintaining a luxurious, polished feel. We loved how each element echoed and complemented another.
It was such an honor to collaborate with an incredible team of vendors and to see our stationery designs and day of details come to life.

At White Ink Calligraphy + Co., we specialize in creating custom wedding stationery and event details that tell your love story from the very first impression to the last dance of the evening. This elegant spring wedding at Cheekwood Estate and Gardens in Nashville was a perfect example of how thoughtful design can transform a celebration into something unforgettable.
Elegant Spring Wedding Details
The couple chose a dreamy palette of light blue, white, and soft green accents, perfectly suited for Cheekwood’s lush spring gardens. We carried these colors throughout their entire wedding stationery suite and event signage for a cohesive, elevated look.
Wedding Invitations | Grand Millennial Maximalism Meets Timeless Elegance
We started with their invitation suite. Featuring letterpress printing, a custom monogram, and an intricate envelope liner adorned with a bird illustration, the design was a nod to grand millennial maximalism. If you aren’t familiar with this design term, it is a trending style right now that combines more traditional elements with a modern twist, creating a detailed, yet polished and refined style.
The Custom Monogram
That custom monogram we designed on the invite became a signature design element for the wedding day. It appeared on the menus at each guest’s place setting, a stunning fabric backdrop at the reception, and, my favorite, on the dance floor wrap itself! Seeing our design come to life in such a grand format was a true “pinch-me” moment.
Statement Seating Chart & Welcome Sign
The seating chart was a showstopper! This elegant, tall display had guest names written in light blue calligraphy on a crisp white background. We framed the chart with the same floral-and-bird artwork from the envelope liner, creating a sense of connection between the invitations and the reception space.
The welcome sign echoed this same border detail, featuring a white oval center with the wording placed inside. It greeted guests and set the tone for the celebration ahead.
Place Cards with a Pop of Color
For the place cards, folded squares featured guests names in light blue with a soft floral and green border. Peep- The same border design can also be seen on the details card from their invitation suite! This subtle color combination perfectly tied into the tablescape’s springtime elegance, offering a fresh and cheerful finishing touch.
Designing for the Spring Season
When we began designing this suite, it was still the middle of winter, but these invitations gave us serious spring fever and got us SO EXCITED for spring weddings! This wedding was just as beautiful as we imagined and it was an honor to create so many elegant and beautiful details for their Cheekwood wedding day.

As a full-service wedding design house in Nashville, we love working with couples and planners to create wedding details that reflect each couples’ unique vision. It is such a treat to create custom pieces that tell your story, and are thoughtfully woven into your day. Lexi Jo and Landry’s artistic and colorful wedding at Belle Meade Historic Site in Nashville, Tennessee, was the perfect example of how vibrant colors and meaningful design can come together to create something truly beautiful and unforgettable.
Sherbet Hues and Hand-Painted Details
Their wedding invitations were one-of-a-kind. The main invite was both elegant and southern in style with white card stock and blue calligraphy. Then there was the cowboy boot-shaped welcome party piece, which hinted at the fun cowboy cocktail dress code. It was playful, memorable, and full of personality just like the couple! This was the perfect base for the pop of sherbet orange on the rsvp and wedding details card. The combination of white and blue, and the creamy orange hue were carried throughout the day.
However, our favorite moment of this suite was the groom’s hand-painted floral artwork that was included on the vellum overlay (as well as many other wedding details) that held all the paper pieces together with a wax seal.
Day-of Details That Brought the Color Palette to Life
The celebration continued with colorful, cohesive paper goods that carried their sherbet-toned color palette and floral focused design into every space.
Wedding Welcome Sign
A white, rounded welcome sign featuring Southern-inspired blue calligraphy greeted guests, framed by a stunning floral arrangement bursting with vibrant pinks, purples, and oranges. As guests entered the outdoor ceremony site covered in gorgeous florals they could pick up a wedding program. We designed the programs on classic white paper with blue calligraphy and a floral element from the suite brought a cohesive and elegant finishing touch to the ceremony space.
Elegant Seating Chart
The seating chart was a show-stopping display and one of my favorite details. The display featured soft blue lettering on a white background that had a 3D effect with stunning florals arranged at the base. The mix of low florals and tall stemmed blooms created a romantic, layered look that perfectly complemented the venue’s charm.
Bar Sign
We created an oval bar sign in steel blue, with white calligraphy framed by the same floral border from the invitation art. This visual tie-in made the entire event feel thoughtfully styled.
Reception Tablescape and Details
As guests moved inside for the reception they found their menus tucked into a custom die-cut orange pocket, again featuring Landry’s floral artwork. The menus and orange acrylic table numbers popped against the blue linens and tied into the colorful spring floral centerpieces.
Lexi Jo and Landry’s wedding was full of color, romance, and intention. It was a joy to work them, and lean in to their love of color and design, as well as the rest of the amazing vendor team who brought this wedding dream to life!

Set against the stately backdrop of Ravenswood Mansion in Brentwood, TN, this colorful garden wedding was a breathtaking blend of timeless design and heartfelt celebration. We had the joy of designing a variety of paper goods and signage for this stunning wedding day. Gold took center stage in all the designs and was thoughtfully woven into a variety of elements. Classic gold wedding details and accents played a part in bringing this stunning, garden-inspired wedding to life.
A Gold-Kissed Invitation Suite
The invitation suite truly set the tone for the day with an elegant mix of gold calligraphy and classic styling. One of our favorite moments from this invite was the custom sketch of Ravenswood Mansion that lined each envelope! It was an inviting nod to the historic beauty of the venue. The couple’s custom monogram added a layer of sophistication, making its debut on the invitation and reappearing throughout the wedding day for a cohesive, elevated look.
Day-of Details
That same monogram reappeared on the couple’s wedding programs, which echoed the gold-ink design of the invitation but with a soft floral border that added a romantic, garden-inspired flair.
A gold-framed mirror welcome sign greeted guests as they arrived, setting the tone for the refined celebration ahead. The full-length mirror seating chart, also displayed in an ornate gold frame, guided guests gracefully to their seats.
Throughout the reception, every detail was thoughtfully styled. Tables featured white table numbers with gold numerals, nestled among vibrant summer florals.
White place cards with gold calligraphy coordinated with the seating chart, guiding guests to their seats, while gold-framed signature drink signage and custom bar decals added personality to the bar area. The couple’s monogram even graced frost flex cups, tying everything together seamlessly across every touchpoint.
A Celebration to Remember
These two graduates of the University of Tennessee Knoxville had a gorgeous wedding day vision that balanced color with classic neutrals. It was a perfect blend of personality and timeless style. The amazing and incredibly talented planner, Dana McCollum, expertly planned the entire day to flow beautifully.
We loved seeing how gold became the thread that tied everything together, creating a memorable, joyful, and elevated wedding day. It’s a beautiful reminder that paper details aren’t just decorative! They shape the guest experience and make a wedding feel truly you.
Congratulations to the happy couple, and thank you for trusting White Ink Calligraphy + Co. to be a part of your unforgettable day at Ravenswood!

This destination wedding at The Hemingway House in Key West, Florida, was one of those unforgettable weddings, filled with beauty, and even a little adventure! The couple, who live in Colorado, selected this beautiful venue to host their destination wedding. Guests traveled in from all over, and the couple wanted to make sure the whole experience was immersive. The historic, garden wedding venue was a dream and provided all the inspiration we needed to create their Key West wedding invitations and details.
Key West Wedding Invitations with Custom Artwork
From the very beginning, this couple had a clear and stunning vision. The suite came to life with various shades of green. The bride hand-sketched custom artwork found in their invitation suite, which was a delicate, bright green line drawing of The Hemingway House. And the paper stack was tucked in a custom sleeve featuring a more detailed venue sketch than the liner.
Each piece was a nod to the lush surroundings of Key West. The envelope liner, printed in an earthy green with bright green artwork, mirrored the feeling of stepping into a tucked-away tropical garden. A soft green tassel added playful elegance to the main invitation. We even included a striped insert card printed with Ernest Hemingway quotes, tying the entire suite back to the venue’s iconic namesake.
Anything for our Clients
As fate would have it, the week we shipped out their final paper goods, Nashville and the Southeast area was hit with a series of tornadoes over multiple days. While our team was safe, shipping delays caused a major hiccup, as UPS failed to deliver the package in time.
When that happens, we do what needs to be done.
We gladly reproduced EVERYTHING. And then, I personally boarded a flight to Key West on the morning of the wedding to hand-deliver everything. I met their planner at baggage claim, and made sure every single piece was ready for their celebration. Nothing was going to stop us from delivering the promised items to our couple!
Bringing the Suite Into the Wedding Day Details
We love when couples carry design elements from their invitation suite into the wedding day itself, and this one did it beautifully.
The menus echoed the green-striped Hemingway quote cards from the suite and included the same fun tassel detail.
White place cards featured the same flower sketch found on the wedding details card and came in three different colors: a dark green, tropical green, and coral. The cards were then tucked into upright sleeves of the same color that featured the same custom venue sketch used on the suite sleeve.
The Cocktail markers featured Hemingway quotes clipped to drinks with mini clothespins. It was a small but charming nod to the literary legend and the venue.
All of these details popped against the stunning reception design of white linens with deep green floral patterns, dark green napkins, and cascading greenery woven into chandeliers and centerpieces.
The outdoor ceremony itself felt like a hidden oasis! The romantic ceremonial garden featured a lush tropical landscape of Key West. The thoughtful, elegant design choices made by the couple and the talented vendor team created a seamless and gorgeous wedding experience.
The Power of Paper to Elevate a Guest Experience
It’s always our goal to ensure the paper details do more than just inform guests! We think they should tell a story and immerse guests in the experience. It’s safe to say, we accomplished just that with this wedding! From the very first impression to the final sip of a Hemingway cocktail, every piece of paper played a role in welcoming guests to this beautiful celebration.
It was an honor to be a part of such a meaningful and joyful day, and a reminder that we’ll always go the extra mile (or 1,000) to make sure our clients are taken care of.

Nashville is home to many amazing wedding venues, but this luxury lakeside venue sitting on 15 beautiful acres is one of my top favorites. The Claybrooks’ luxurious fall wedding at Cherokee Docks combined romantic elegance with interactive fun. Personalized touches and breathtaking details filled the entire weekend, and we were honored to play a part in it all.
We worked closely with the fabulous mother of the bride, Kelly, who planned every last detail of her daughter’s big day with care and intention. Kelly truly had a vision, and bringing that to life through elegant invitations and paper goods, custom signage, and unforgettable installations was such a joy for our team!
Custom Sketches for an Elegant Invitation Suite
Guests were first introduced to the weekend with a custom save the date featuring an engagement photo underneath a vellum overlay with the event details printed on top. Held together with a gold grommet, this piece was an interactive and modern way to include a photo while keeping the aesthetic cohesive and timeless. Read more about this and other fun and unique Save the Dates here!
The couple’s invitation suite was a perfect reflection of their classic style. We created a soft, romantic white invitation that featured delicate florals surrounding the couple’s monogram. A custom sketch of the Cherokee Dock venue on the wrap that held the invitation suite pieces together was my favorite detail. It completely elevated the suite! I just love slipping in little details and hints about the wedding day to guests.
To kick off the weekend, we also designed a welcome party invitation featuring a sketch of the General Jackson Showboat, giving guests a peek at the fun to come. From beginning to end, each paper piece was designed to build anticipation and set the tone for the weekend.
Ceremony Details
The ceremony wasn’t without its own beautiful paper moments. Guests received newspaper-style fan programs, which doubled as a ceremony timeline and a creative way to showcase an engagement photo. These charming, multi-purpose programs were a total win on a warm fall day.
Then there was the ceremony itself which took place outside by the water. Between the leaves changing colors, the sunlight hitting the water, and the beautiful couple so excited to be married, there was so much to love about this wedding,
Interactive Details Guests Will Never Forget
This wedding was full of beautiful, classic moments, but it also had some fun surprises! We loved bringing a little playfulness to the design while still keeping things elevated.
Our favorite feature of the day? A 20-foot cocktail pass-through wall, which is our largest installation to date! This statement piece displayed the seating chart alongside three signature cocktail options. Guests would ring a bell, and a white-gloved bartender on the other side would pass their drink through the wall. It was interactive, elegant, and such a highlight of the evening (a little birdie, aka the MOB, told us it was a MAJOR guest favorite!)
Day of Details
We also had the honor of creating many other day of details that fit flawlessly into their wedding day vision. Guests were greeted by a sleek, black acrylic welcome sign with white calligraphy. It looked so good surrounded by candle light reflecting off the glass. The bar signage and the black acrylic bourbon bar sign were two other reception details we had our hand in creating!
The details didn’t stop there though! Custom foam drink toppers for the espresso martinis (yes, the details even made it to the cocktails!) included their monogram with their last name and wedding date!
Guests could also grab a refreshing bottle of Fiji water that featured a custom sketch of their beloved dog, Scout, on the label. I love weaving fun and personal details into a wedding day in unique ways. The reception space was stunning with spherical chandeliers and greenery draped from the ceiling. At each table setting there were classic, black place cards in white calligraphy that corresponded with the grand seating chart.
Every single touchpoint of The Claybrooks’ wedding weekend, from the save the dates to the cocktail wall and seating chart, was designed with intention. We were thrilled to help Kelly and her family bring it to life. It’s weddings like this that remind us why we love what we do.
