The September sky gave way to one of the most gorgeous and memorable weddings we’ve put our touch on. And it couldn’t have happened to a sweeter couple. Getting to watch these nuptials unfold at the Boston Public Library was the cherry on top! Georgi and Jason put together an amazing wedding and as thrilled as we were to be a part of it all, we hated to see the day come to an end. Couples like this, with weddings like this one, are something we keep close to our hearts.
The detail that I just can’t get over- Georgi’s veil alone was enough to stop us in our tracks. Draped gently behind her long dark hair, this stunning piece was having a moment!
Georgi and Jason’s invitation suite boasted a seamless balance of delicate and bold features. Full calligraphy done in rose gold ink complimented the black envelopes beautifully. The invitation suite was letter-pressed with spot calligraphy on stock paper and elevated with a beautiful black, vellum overlay which included a custom sketch of the Boston Public Library! Vintage postage and a custom rose gold wax seal completed this impeccable design.
White Ink was honored to add to the breathtaking staircase entrance of this unforgettable venue. The sharp black wedding welcome sign topped with white lettering, stood out against an impressive array of florals and lit candles which demanded the attention of each guest as they passed by.
Just as Georgi and Jason’s invitation suite and wedding welcome sign harnessed a delicate boldness, so did the table numbers which sat perfectly into the formal tablescape for their reception. There are times when table signage takes an unassuming role among the tablescape, but then there are moments when table signs play an important part in grabbing the guest’s attention. These sharp lines and block signage with gold numbers set against the soft florals and candles and white linen offered a uniquely formal taste and modern/chic appearance to the 170-year-old venue. A detail which was beautifully and purposefully done.
We love our Nashville couples, that’s no secret. But getting to meet our couples where they are is something we cherish and are always honored to do. Finding ourselves at the Boston Public Library in the presence of Georgi and Jason along with their closest family and friends was an incredible moment for us at White Ink. I am so moved to have been a part of this incredible journey with the perfect couple. To Georgi and Jason, thanks for the memories that will last forever. 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. I think you’re going to like this!
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. Love it!
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!)
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
White Ink designed Sam and Landon’s reception menus which 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!
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!
A few more day-before details for Sam and Landon’s wedding welcome party. Getting to create items like their seating chart and the most adorable little matchboxes for the guests to take along with them was an honor. 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. And that’s just a really special thing!
To the happy couple, we hope you enjoy lots of love and adventure, and continue soaking in all the finer details around you- and that’s our wish for you! Cheers!
This picture-perfect wedding which took place at the breathtaking Southall Farm & Inn in historic Franklin, TN was one I will never forget. For starters, Emily and Avnish were the first clients that we worked with from the new White Ink Studio! That alone was a very special and meaningful moment for me and my team. It also didn’t hurt that this couple was an absolute delight to work with! They trusted us in creating some amazing wedding details that I really think you are going to enjoy. I’ve been so excited to share these with you!
Texture. Texture. Texture. It never fails. Emily and Avnish’s guest were pulled into this bold invitation suite that boasted hand-made paper, a custom map created for the details card, and a leather cord used to wrap up this suite into one, bright bundle of celebration.
White Ink also included a custom envelope liner which depicted the Southall property. Such a chic way of showing guests a little sneak peek of the venue!
One of my favorite parts of this invitation suite was that the RSVP card included a QR code with all of the info at the guests’ fingertips. It’s no secret that not everyone remembers to RSVP to events. This is a clever way to prompt and encourage guests to confirm their attendance. It’s a win, win.
With an abundance of mirrors to choose from in the White Ink Collection, I was excited that Emily and Avnish went with this arched, gold framed mirror for their wedding welcome sign. The modern touch complimented the natural serenity that Southall possesses. It stands out just enough for guests to take notice- which is kind of fun!
Tile seating chart, florals arrangements, wooden back drop- are we starting to see a theme here? Yep, it’s texture. The reason why it works is because it is a feast, if you will, for the eyes. The different feel, looks, colors offer a compelling and exciting contrast that people can’t help but indulge in! Multitextured design lends itself to a particularly beautiful and often unforgettable balance- enjoyed by all!
Fun Fact: I hand painted this seating chart sign while onsite at Southall! A one-of-a-kind experience for a one-of-a-kind wedding!
This sweet, dusty blue hue which can be seen throughout the wedding details (including the invitation) looked gorgeous used with the menus and table numbers. Our stationary team did a fantastic job getting all the details that Emily and Avnish wanted for these. The place cards fastened to the menus are kind of my favorite.
The table numbers were displayed using these super cute gold square bases. These bases can be found in our extensive White Ink collection and can fit into nearly any style or theme. This little detail tied together our couple’s picturesque tablescape.
Getting to be onsite for Emily and Avnish’s wedding was truly a gift. One that I will always cherish. With this couple being the first couple we hosted in our studio, they will always hold a special place in our hearts! Their trust in the work that we do here at White Ink was unmatched. Cheers to the happy couple and to their Franklin Fairytale!
A bride and groom’s time to shine isn’t narrowed down to just one day. Sometimes, the most meaningful moments happen in the days surrounding a wedding day. One of the biggest roles of a rehearsal dinner is to allow the bride and group an opportunity to properly welcome family and the wedding party. Cason and Eddie set the bar for what a rehearsal dinner should look like and feel like! I was honored that they invited White Ink to take part in delivering a rehearsal to remember!
White Ink knows how to deliver the goods…. paper goods! Cason and Eddie’s June nuptials offered the perfect chance for them to use the beauty of summer floral prints. I especially love that the floral print we used on the rehearsal invite liner was also used when customizing the table number signs for this beautiful couple.
I always love to see that gorgeous dusty blue hue. Our couple incorporated this color throughout the entire evening, and I simply didn’t get enough of it.
Notice the “C.E.” monogram sporting more gorgeous blue summer floral prints on both the custom Rehearsal Dinner menu and invite.
Cason and Eddie chose the ever-stunning Noelle in Nashville to welcome their close friends and family to their wedding celebrations. White Ink collaborated with Hill Event Rentals to put together this amazing welcome sign that was tucked perfectly against a draped entryway. The florals that lined the bottom of the sign was the cherry on top that made this welcome sign the delicate focal point that it was. Teamwork!
“Your Seat Awaits,” topped the escort card display. Hill Event Rentals once again showcased some of their best work with building this display to match the Welcome Sign display. White Ink did what we do best and added the laser-cut text along with individually calligraphed place cards, complete with a custom monogramed wax seal.
Remember, event signage doesn’t have to be cold or bossy. Direct your guests in a warm and beautiful way! Feel free to make it unique and even playful! We love helping our clients with these ideas.
The table numbers fit perfectly into the stunning formal tablescapes in the Noelle’s Sadiee Gallery Grand Ballroom. They simple belonged in this room!
The place cards elevated the show-stopping tablescape and fit effortlessly alongside the goldware at each place setting. This is a perfect example of how one seemingly small detail can really pack a big decor punch!
Classic display of the custom menu we designed for Cason and Eddie. Carrying details like color and prints throughout the whole of an event sends a message of intention and thoughtfulness and can show guests that their enjoyment is a really big part of the planning process!
We were honored to join our couple, Cason and Eddie, in one of the most meaningful nights of their lives! They made sure that their family and wedding party received a proper welcome. We cannot wait to share more details about their wedding day too! For now, we will hold on to memories that were made “The Night Before.”
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 wedding unforgettable for all in attendance. I love getting to show you all events where there is no shortage of details that aim to inspire. Enjoy!
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! The letterpress work on the card stock paper was beautifully done by our friends at Clover Calligraphy Co. who 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 point 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!
The wedding welcome sign was done in a frosted acrylic. It really 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.
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.
Alright you guys, 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. One of the sweetest seating charts I’ve been honored to take part in.
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 inspired theme. Look at how well all of the finer details fit together! I’m obsessed. Notice more of the tuber rose print throughout.
I loved getting to create these summer-perfect, lavender-inspired 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 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!
There is a saying, “Retirement is when you stop living at work and start working at living.” And what better way to begin a new chapter in your life than to celebrate? I cherish every opportunity we get at White Ink to help elevate what are often major events in our clients’ lives, but there is something particularly special about getting the chance to be a part of a retirement celebration. Taylor Farms gave a beautiful farewell to two employees who were more like family. We were so lucky to celebrate with Bryan and Dan, and many of their closest family, friends, and coworkers. Take a look at some of these fun details we created for them.
The signage we did for this is some of my favorite. I really love getting to use our chalkboard welcome sign. It has a particular boldness about it that has a way of grabbing your attention while fitting perfectly into many styles of decor. It was perfect for this event!
Tabletop chalkboard signage just, works! These little guys can be as formal or as casual as you want them to be. And I love it when our clients choose to use these as a way to guide their guests through events.
Ok, so I want to take a quick moment to recognize one of the best in the business, Dana Carroll McCollum with Dana Carroll Co Weddings & Events! She is an amazing planner, and we absolutely LOVE each and every time we get to work with her. We usually find each other working together on weddings, so it was really fun getting to change things up while working an event like the Taylor Farms Retirement Celebration. One of the coolest parts of my job is fostering relationships among other creatives within the wedding and event world. The planning community is a very special place and people like Dana are a big reason why.
Going back to the details, I am thrilled with how well these adorable cocktail napkins turned out! The gold lettering over the black stands out so well. Details like custom cocktail napkins are a fun way to make an event feel personal and extra special. And we NEED to talk about these drink stirs! Laser cuts are now something we do in-house, and I am really excited about it because the possibilities are endless. The custom-designed, laser-cut drink stirs we did for Bryan and Dan was a stand-out piece at the party. Even the smallest details can have a lasting effect on how your guests remember your event.
Bryan and Dan elevated their party favors to their guests with the custom tags we made for each gift. Again, this is a subtle way to show your guests that you’re glad they are there to celebrate with you. It points to a great deal of thoughtfulness when you choose small yet powerful details like these.
To Dan and Bryan, we at White Ink wish you the best on what is hopefully the happiest new beginning of your lives! We are so grateful to have been a part of such a special Taylor Farms send-off. Here’s to celebrating retirement and working at living! Cheers!
