Written in Stone | Hannah + Zach | 6.17.23

Once again, we found ourselves back at the iconic Country Music Hall of Fame, this time to honor and celebrate the nuptials of this seriously gorgeous White Ink couple, Hannah and Zach. Style and texture effortlessly danced together at this stunning wedding reception. And I’m so happy I get to share another White Ink gem with you guys!

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.

Oh look! Here’s a bride for reference! When I say these seating chart column displays commanded attention, they did just that. It’s your wedding, go big!

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. BUT 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!

Note how the difference in the textures in this tablescape design provides a bold and delicate balance to the aesthetic of the room- soft white florals, linen, and organic stoned table numbers are working together like a dream.

Texture was having a MOMENT at this unforgettable reception, ya’ll. I love showing up for my clients in these unique styles. 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. 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. Modern and sophisticated is the message here. I 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!
