January Dreams | Amanda + Adam | 1.9.21

Amanda and Adam’s wedding was the first on our schedule for the 2021 season, and it was honestly the best start to the kind of wedding season we were hoping for! Winter weddings offer an inviting change of style and energy to the wedding scene, which makes it really special to us. Amanda and Adam trusted White Ink to dive into our creativity and give them some amazing wedding details that we know you’re going to love! 

Let’s start with the custom invitation wedding suite. These invites were fully-calligraphed which is not only gorgeous, but also has the amazing ability to effortlessly demand the attention of its reader. In short, this suite is powerful and bold, quite like a winter wedding. The beautiful gold ink work was done using thermography: a process where heat is used to infuse a powdered resin with ink to naturally raise the lettering and give way to a flawless textured look. Always a treat getting to do this for my couples!  

Moving on to more wedding keepsakes, I was excited to show you Amanda and Adam’s precious vow envelopes. We LOVE envelope calligraphy, especially when we know it’s going to be something that will be treasured for a lifetime! If you are planning to write your own vows, elevate this beautiful memory with custom calligraphy. You absolutely will not regret taking time to do this for yourselves.  

White Ink’s touch could be seen throughout the ceremony and reception. I loved getting to use our gorgeous, ornamented mirror for Amanda and Adam’s wedding welcome sign. One of the best things about using the mirrors from our collection is getting to reuse and customize each of them to fit the style of the bride and groom. The same goes for our card boxes (these are honestly my favorite little things ever!).  

The mirrored seating chart we made was surrounded by oversized candles and draped in a gorgeous arrangement of florals. It’s always nice to see these seating charts presented in such a beautiful way. Hand lettering mirrors is something White Ink has been doing since the very beginning. It’s a detail that always delivers and has stood the test of time for so many events. Pro tip: A hand lettered seating chart also allows your guests to get a glimpse of themselves for a much-appreciated wardrobe check.  

From the stunning Clemintine Hall venue in the heart of Nashville to the four-tiered cake, Amanda and Adam’s winter wedding was certainly one to remember. It was a dream! White Ink was lucky to have such an unforgettable start to another fantastic wedding season.

Camp Premo: A Camp-Themed Birthday Party! 

Camp Premo: A Camp-Themed Birthday Party! 

I absolutely love getting a chance to show you guys projects that White Ink does that are completely outside of the wedding scene. It’s a great opportunity for us to remind folks that calligraphy belongs in any event!  

One of Nashville’s top lifestyle-influencers and bloggers, Hunter Premo, reached out to White Ink for help in personalizing the coolest first birthday party we’ve ever seen! This day was all about Remy, the birthday boy. His first birthday seriously blew us away. And our team had a ton fun creating some unique pieces that are sure to bring a bit of birthday inspo to you. 

Let’s go to summer camp! This camp-themed birthday was filled with all the nostalgia any summer camp lover could ask for with activities like archery, fishing, workshop, bounce house, watering hole (bar), even a reptile petting station! White Ink got to create the wooden activity signs that were perfectly situated against one of the trees on the property. This definitely made for a great conversation piece. (The owners liked them so much they actually kept them up long after the party was over.) 

White Ink’s touch could be spotted throughout “camp” as we created special signage at many of the stations. The adventure sign broke down all of the scheduled activities for the day, which turns out to be a really helpful source when there is such a young audience to entertain. Campers of all ages could enjoy refreshments with lemonades for the little campers and cocktails for the more mature campers! We loved getting to make this sign, so cute! 

My personal favorite was the table for Remy’s “time capsule”. We did the sign for this station asking folks to write down a message for Remy to open on his 18th birthday. How awesome is that! I wonder what words of wisdom he’ll smile at when he reads them.  

White Ink Calligraphy has the best clients in the world! We love it when we get to keep celebrating some of the biggest moments throughout their lives. Remy, we hope your day was filled with all of the love and wonder you deserve. We were so happy just to be a part of it!
