Fixed among the serene beauty of rural Franklin, TN, Southall Farm & Inn lent itself to one of the most gently breathtaking weddings we’ve been a part of. White Ink couple, Lauren and John, allowed us to create custom spring wedding details for their incredible wedding day and we were honored to do it.
Classic Invitation Suite
Coming in on the heels of spring, just before the summer wedding season, this special day proved to be perfect in so many ways. We began with designing Lauren and John’s impressive and quintessentially classic invitation suite. There is a notable balance of boldness and delicacy as the envelope liner with a print of the gorgeous foothills of the Southall venue jumps right off the paper while the vellum sleeve softly wraps around the classic letterpressed invitation. A perfectly placed, dusty-rose, wax seal to close the vellum wrap added an extra charm that effortlessly tied the suite together. It really was the perfect invite.
Notice that the custom wax seal not only matched the dusty rose color of the RSVP card, but it also boasts florals to match the ones found on the vellum wrap. There is nothing that elevates a wedding like tying together details throughout!
From the bride’s bouquet to a cascade of florals used for the arbor, we couldn’t get enough of the gorgeous flowers bursting through each part of this spring wedding!
Chic, sleek, and simple – the bar menu that we prepared for Lauren and John fit perfectly into the bar’s clean look and layered textures. Guests definitely enjoyed the inviting vibe of this delicious cocktail hour. How could you not?
We helped guests to their seats with a tastefully designed seating chart. I adore the soft gray lettering against the white signage as flower arrangements kissed the bottom of the chart. Florals and signage just go together, there’s just nothing else like it!
Custom Spring Wedding Details
One of the most exciting things for us at White Ink is when our couples request the “designer’s choice” for some of their details and signage. Sometimes, brides and grooms know exactly what they’re looking for with these types of details and decor. However, there are others who just aren’t sure what would look best. We LIVE for these moments! Not only is this what we do, but more than that, it means that our couples completely trust us and our experience.
Customized Wedding Reception Details
For Lauren and John, we were happy to flex our creative muscles to come up with these stunning table numbers for their reception. We surprised them with a frosted acrylic to match the vellum wrap we made for the invitations, as well as etched florals from the vellum wrap. We then mounted it against a laser-cut number in white acrylic to natural wood. Designer’s choice and a chef’s kiss.
Menus are another great opportunity for brides and grooms tie in special details. Lauren and John chose the same letter press wording and hue of that of their wedding invites.
These menus were simply made for this tablescape as they tucked effortlessly against the napkins and place settings. Never stealing the show, only elevating it.
Lauren and John were a delight to work with from start to finish! It was an honor to be a part of their big day. The couple ensured that every guest felt special, and that every detail mattered. This is a wedding that will certainly be hard to forget. A toast to the happy couple- a toast to forever. Cheers!

Turning to each other, hand in hand, looking at each other with the same soul-shaking stare, the kind of stare that fully surrenders to the excitement of the moment- that’s the part of a wedding that always gets me. Couples in THEIR moment, that small and mighty moment in each ceremony is the best part of the whole celebration. Our incredible couple, Padma and Sagar, were surrounded by their closest friends and family in one of the most stunning receptions we’ve been a part of. Their elegant winter wedding day included countless moments that will stay with us.
Dark Green Invites Enhanced with Gold Calligraphy
For starters, Padma and Sagar’s custom invitations boasted a deep green hue making the gold print and calligraphy pop right off of the paper. They chose the unique curved outline for the invite, making it an especially stunning piece for guests to enjoy. Your invites can encompass the style of an event beyond color and print! Using a detail like the shape of an invite is a great way to incorporate your style and vision.
Whimsical Seating Chart
The whimsical seating chart display was a guest favorite. The sleek gold frames gently leaned against the wall while a bright array of florals surrounded their base was simply magical. I get excited when couples use florals to enhance the seating chart displays. It’s always a design win!
Elegant Winter Wedding Details
Well, this is about as stunning as it gets when styling your bar signage! Our team enjoyed creating the custom signature cocktails sign, which used the same paper color and gold ink as Padma and Sagar’s invites. The sign was styled with the same florals as the seating chart display. YES, to carrying details throughout your entire celebration! What an inviting display during cocktail hour!
It was an honor to create Padma and Sagar’s dining menus to add to this incredibly stunning reception. Again, guests enjoyed the beautiful deep green hue found on the invites and bar signage. The gold print flowed perfectly with the gold-rimmed dining plates, gold napkins and goldware! An absolutely timeless motif.
White Ink is honored to be included in the excitement of our couples’ celebrations! We delight in the traditions, the love, and the people that each couple values. Bringing our couples’ individual vision to life is why we’re here and what we love to do! Cheers!

Sometimes, a client’s dream wedding turns into our dream wedding! The moment our sweet couple, Sam and Landon, asked White Ink to take part in elevating their Country Music Hall of Fame wedding details, I realized that this wedding was going to be incredibly memorable for our team. And indeed, it was! We had the honor of helping to showcase Sam and Landon’s style with purpose and authenticity by creating their custom Nashville wedding details.
For starters, our couple’s wedding suite embraced a style that was bold and uniquely “Nashville.” I love the sharpness of the invite, complete with a heavy stock, wedding paper and letter pressed font.
Take a moment to soak in the amazing work of the talented Katie Kime! She provided the custom artwork on the envelope liners which depict iconic Nashville favorites like Jonny and June, The Loveless Cafe, The Country Music Hall of Fame, and even the “Batman Building.” Details like this truly set the tone for your wedding guests and create a memorable experience. I just love this details!
Sam and Landon’s save-the-date boasted the same polished look as the invitation suite including the letter pressed font and print of the Country Music Hall of Fame. (Side note: I can never get enough of how beautiful the vintage postage is!)
Wedding Welcome Sign and Program Details
This wedding welcome sign spoke volumes and was a complete showstopper. From the texture to the font to the overall framing of the display, this piece was impressive to say the least.
Simplicity goes a long way with these program details. A gentle font and color against a soft white paper was perfectly inviting for Sam and Landon’s guests. I love getting a peep of little details that are laced throughout the day like the cute little wedding bells on this custom water bottle. The same wedding bell print that we used for the wedding details card in the invitation suite.
Elegant Seating Chart Display
I am so happy to show off what my team created for Sam and Landon’s seating chart! Putting this seating chart wall together on site was an accomplishment. One that I adore! The sleek oval escort cards with hanging tassels were just so beautiful to see. This display wowed the guests and was yet another reflection of Sam and Landon’s elegant style.
Custom Laser-Cut Signature Cocktail Signs
For cocktail hour, we rolled up our sleeves to do one of our favorite things: custom laser-cuts! We designed several table signs to add to the uniqueness of our couple’s unforgettable day. I love how this turned out and how well it fit into the style of the entire event.
However, it’s the custom cocktail stirrers for me! These little guys were so fun to make. The “H” initial stands out so perfectly along with the date. This is a great example of a small detail that packs a huge punch. It’s things like this that your guests never forget!
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how adorable Sam and Landon’s pup looks printed on these custom cocktail napkins? Cocktail hour is a great opportunity to pull in really special details of our lives- like pets! I could look at this face all day!
A Penny For Your Thoughts
Guests took the time to share their best advice on marriage and give well wishes as Sam and Landon created a space for “A penny for your thoughts.” This was a fun and clever way to include each guest as well as receive some welcomed advice from their closest friends and family! We were happy to be included by creating yet another one-of-a-kind laser-cut custom table sign.
The custom signage was carried throughout the reception. Doing this can truly elevate the theme and help carry the tone of a room. The arched table numbers worked perfectly with the delicate tablescapes, and their texture offered a wonderful balance to the vibrant florals all around. Such an incredibly impressive look!
Sidenote: I still think about this floral chandelier more often than I care to admit. I mean, wow! This was such a stunning wedding in so many ways and this chandelier was a showstopper!
Custom Nashville Wedding Details
White Ink designed Sam and Landon’s reception menus that fit perfectly on top of the custom laser-cut settings we created as well! The gold wax seal to top the menu pulled this entire place setting together with the added bonus of the matching table numbers and table signage throughout. When it comes to lacing details throughout an event, THIS is how it’s done.
Peep the cute wedding bell prints making another appearance! This time, at the end of the night when guests were offered a yummy snack of burgers and fries. From invitation suite to burger box, this wedding bell print fit right in!
Wedding Welcome Party Details
I don’t want to wrap up without showing you guys a couple of the day-before details that White Ink did for Sam and Landon’s Wedding Welcome Party. Wedding parties and wedding rehearsal dinners are the perfect time to have fun with details and create a more intimate tone.
Sam and Landon wanted us to create table numbers for the welcome party that included pictures of them being the same age as the number on the sign. As you can see above, here are Sam and Landon at ages 7 and 8. Is this not the sweetest thing ever? It meant a lot to be able to provide these special table numbers for them!
We also created a few more day-before details for Sam and Landon’s wedding welcome party. It was an honor to create items like their seating chart and the most adorable little matchboxes for the guests to take along with them. Putting in the extra effort in these more intimate settings really shows those closest to you, that they are appreciated and that you were thinking of them, which is really special!
To the happy couple, we hope you enjoy lots of love and adventure, and continue soaking in all the finer details around you! Cheers to you both!

Once again, we found ourselves back at the iconic Country Music Hall of Fame, this time to honor and celebrate this seriously gorgeous White Ink couple, Hannah and Zach. Style and texture effortlessly danced together at this stunning wedding reception. I’m beyond thrilled to share another White Ink gem with you guys!
Column Seating Chart
For starters, Hill Event Rentals really outdid themselves when it came to constructing this one-of-a-kind seating chart where White Ink printed names of each guest. (I’m here for a solid collab!) If a couple wants to find a spot in their reception where they can have fun and step outside of traditional style, seating charts are the perfect place to start.
These columns not only add dimension but also command attention. Guests were unsurprisingly wowed by this stunning seating chart. I love that the couple styled the bold display with soft candlelight and delicate white florals, setting the tone for an elegant evening.
When I say these seating chart column displays commanded attention, they did just that. I am all for going big for your wedding! Dream big and go for it!
Stone Table Numbers
Often times, couples prefer a table number style from our rental collection, which will fit unassumingly into their tablescape design. Table numbers usually play a very important, but quiet part in a table setting. However, sometimes, you just want to stand out! No one did this better than Hannah and Zach. They chose to use an organic stoned table number for each of their tables to guide guests to their seats. Talk about a conversation piece! Such a unique and fun piece!
A Wedding Reception of Style and Texture
Note how the difference in the textures in this tablescape design provides a bold and delicate balance to the aesthetic of the room. The soft white florals, linen, and organic stoned table numbers all work together like a dream.
Fabric Bar Menu Sign
Texture was having a MOMENT at this unforgettable reception, ya’ll. I love showing up for my clients and assisting with unique styles and items . I especially love a chance to remind people that yes, we do calligraphy, but it is SO much more that! We are in the business of turning your vision into a reality-whatever that looks like. I am simply in love with this hanging fabric bar sign that we did.
Using fabric in this way can take a simple bar aesthetic and elevate it instantly. Modern and sophisticated is the message here, and I just cannot get enough.
The stone signage carried over into one of the most thoughtful guest book tables we have seen. The wording on the stones read “Please Sign Our Bible” and “Pick a Verse, Leave a Note, Sign Your Name.” I thought this is a particularly touching way for couples of faiths to keep it close to their hearts. I imagine those sweet notes are filled with positivity and light.
Here’s to the uniqueness of each of our couples. Here’s to the memories we get to make alongside them. And here’s to every little letter we create that helps bring their vision to life. Each one is written on our hearts. You could say, it’s written in stone. Cheers!

Kayla and Caleb’s elevated Nashville Symphony wedding was an absolute dream! This picturesque event of classic and timeless details was something you just couldn’t take your eyes off of. From the gothic style architecture of Scarritt Bennett’s Wightman Chapel to the grandeur of Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center, there wasn’t a stone left unturned as Kayla and Caleb carefully placed together one of the best Nashville weddings White Ink has seen. Contributing these stunning details and being a part of such a memorable wedding was an absolute honor. Hopefully you can take away some serious wedding inspo from this gorgeous day!
We designed our couple’s wedding invitation suite to embody the elegance of their big day. A custom monogram delicately stood out on the beautiful card stock. I loved adding the extra touch of using a custom, monogram, gold, wax seal for the envelopes. These are small details that pack a big impression!
Wedding Programs
What sets White Ink apart from big box paper retailers is our personalized, hands-on approach. Taking out the guesswork is part of what we do best. From knowing exactly what to include in your programs to advising on quantity, size, and where to “splurge”, we guide you every step of the way. We even help incorporate meaningful elements from your invitation suite to tie everything together. With years of experience and a deep understanding of event-day details, we ensure you get exactly what you need!
Elevated Nashville Symphony Wedding Reception
It’s hard to top the simple elegance a mirrored seating chart. I have always loved how the white lettering on the glass instantly elevates the beauty of this double-rib framed mirror. Kayla and Caleb styled this gorgeous seating chart with florals (always a good idea!) and surrounded it with glass vases holding floating candles. I can’t think of a better way to be invited to take my seat at a table in the opulent Schermerhorn. Divine!
The most elegant part to these custom designed reception menus is that each menu had the guests’ names calligraphed directly on to them. This is why I love what I do! I love when my couples give me the chance to really elevate the finer details of their reception. And yes, guests DO notice little things just like this and often appreciate the level of attention.
Custom Bar Signs and Cocktail Napkins
Kayla and Caleb went with one of my favorite bar signs from our rental collection. We customized the drink menu to fit with the style of all other day-of paper goods as well as the invitation suite. Also, please take a moment to gush over the print of their sweet pup, Cash, on the cocktail napkins! Cocktail napkins are the perfect moment to bring in something special or personal to your big day. And it’s a detail that will be cherished forever.
I think one of the most appreciated details of the evening were these adorable koozies that we customized for Kayla and Caleb! They once again took time to personalize an item that guests were able to use and enjoy. It was the perfect little koozie for guests to use with their drinks while they let loose on the Schermerhorn dance floor! I couldn’t love this more.
For the White Ink team, this was a night to remember. Nights like this make us proud to do what we do. We love making our couples happy! Kayla and Caleb were an amazing couple to work with. They knew exactly what they wanted and trusted us to pull their vision together. And we are honored to do just that. Cheers to the happy couple!

Every moment of planning with this sweet couple was a true joy for all of us at White Ink. Morgan and Tommy chose an incredible balance of boldness and gentleness throughout their wedding details making this dreamy garden-inspired summer wedding unforgettable for all in attendance. Truly, it was stunning-a dream day from start to finish.
Dreamy Lavender Invitation Suite
Morgan and Tommy’s invitation suites delicately showcased a beautiful lavender color and theme, a detail that was laced throughout the entire ceremony and reception! Our friends at Clover Calligraphy Co. did the beautiful letterpress work on the card stock paper, which comes at no surprise as they always do impressive work! A soft lavender hue was chosen for the envelopes in addition to the vellum envelope liners with a dainty tuber rose print. I also want to draw attention to the pressed flowers in the custom wax seals! Is this not the dreamiest invitation suite?
If you look closely at the details card from our bride and groom’s invitation suite, you can see that this textured card is actually seed paper! The cards were infused with wildflower seeds so that wherever guests planted their cards, wildflowers would grow! Talk about a memorable detail!
Frosted Acrylic Welcome Sign
The elegant frosted acrylic wedding welcome sign brought me back to the invitation suite details, as guests could see the same custom monogram from the invite, as well as the beautiful tuber rose print on the vellum envelope liner. Connecting details throughout an event, especially a wedding, can easily elevate your special day.
Thoughtful Summer Wedding Details
A very thoughtful detail that Morgan and Tommy added to their June wedding was letting us create these adorable fan programs which, of course, included the stunning lavender color theme and floral prints that blanketed the details of their wedding. This is a perfect example of making parts of your ceremony details functional for your guests while maintaining a delicate theme.
Garden Party Inspired Seating Chart
Alright, now it’s time to talk about this stunning, garden-party inspired seating chart! Guests could find their escort cards in these adorable little wooden garden boxes that were appropriately filled with gorgeous florals and greenery. This is one of the sweetest seating charts I’ve ever taken part in. It was a true showstopper!
Custom Laser-Engraved Bar Sign
Among all of the delicate designs of the day, Morgan and Tommy still maintained a wonderful balance of boldness, like this one-of-a-kind bourbon bar. We got to create this awesome, laser-engraved, wooden bourbon bar sign, which matched incredibly well with the rustic look they wanted for this setting. I’m really proud of how great this sign turned out. It made for a great conversation piece among guests too!
White Ink also created the custom cocktail sign using the same frosted acrylic as the wedding welcome sign. YES to matching signage!
The table signage, place cards, and escort cards were not left out of this lavender garden-inspired theme. Look at how well all of the finer details fit together! Also, notice more of the tuber rose print throughout. I’m obsessed.
Summer Lavender-Inspired Menus
I loved getting to create these summer-perfect, lavender menus for Morgan and Tommy’s reception. Does the wax seal look familiar? It’s the same custom wax seal with pressed flowers that sealed the guests’ invitation suites! These looked so amazing among the beautiful tablescapes.
I am so proud of the work we were able to accomplish for Morgan and Tommy! This dreamy garden-inspired summer wedding was one for the books and certainly one I will remember for years to come. When it comes to summer wedding inspiration, I guess you could say, this couple has planted the seed! Cheers!
