Let’s Get Personal | Cille + Ford | 5.14.22
I like getting an opportunity to show our clients (past, present and future) things that have been trending in our most recent projects. Cille and Ford gave us the perfect wedding to showcase the work we have so much fun doing for our clients. We can’t wait to add some of these exclusive White Ink details to your next event!
What is trending in invitation suites? Two words- Envelope Calligraphy! This ode to elegance is taking back its rightful place in the invitation world. Envelope calligraphy can only be enhanced by custom designed wax seals. You can see here that Cille and Ford chose to have the wax seals on their envelopes show the same monogram as their invites. But it doesn’t stop there; I am gushing over how perfect the entire suite came together with custom monogrammed invitation bands. This suite has it all- calligraphy, personalization, and good taste.
What is trending with seating charts? Originality, for one and calligraphy of course. Reception seating charts are an entire mood! Our White Ink team has had the honor of creating countless seating charts that take on all shapes, textures, themes and sizes. Cille and Ford’s seating chart is definitely one that’s hard to forget. We added custom calligraphy to an all-acrylic sign which was designed to fit neatly onto a hedge wall donned with SHELVES. OF. CHAMPAINGE. Add that to the list of things I’ll never get tired of saying!
What is trending at reception tables? Custom table numbers! And I’d like to add that the White Ink rental collection has nearly every sort of table number that we can customize specifically for your event no matter the style. Just as Cille and Ford did, you can make it as personal as you like. They decided to add photos of themselves to each sign so that the number on the table corresponded with the age they are in the photo, i.e., table number five displayed pictures of both Cille and Ford when they were five years old. Now that’s how you make it personal, and memorable! For this reception, White Ink also created monogrammed menus for each table setting which included gold ink calligraphy place cards attached to each menu- another trend we are always excited to see.
What is trending at the bar? Cocktail Calligraphy! No, we aren’t just talking about bar signage. We mean calligraphy for the actual drink! We customize and design drink friendly cocktail calligraphy to be placed perfectly atop your favorite drinks. Trust me when I say, this is a trend that is taking off like wildfire. And it is something your guests will be talking about for a long time.
There you have it. These are only a few examples of what White Ink has been busy doing for our clients in recent events. Not only did Cille and Ford have an unforgettable wedding day complete with top notch details, but they also made sure to make it theirs, to make it personal. And that will never go out of style!
