This Nashville wedding at The Cordelle was full of personality, color, and creative design. It perfectly reflected the couple’s playful spirit and love for music. As a team that loves weaving meaning into every detail, we had the best time bringing their vision to life through a collection of custom stationery and day-of details that felt both fun and elevated.
Fun and Playful Invitations
The couple lives in New York but loves the city of Nashville, and chose it as their wedding destination! Their invitation suite set the tone from the very beginning. We combined blue calligraphy on crisp white paper and lavender envelopes. The light green details card and soft pink rehearsal dinner card added pops of color and gave the suite a fresh, fun, playful feel.
Rehearsal Dinner Welcome Sign
For the rehearsal dinner, guests were welcomed with a custom sign that introduced the weekend’s colorful aesthetic. The border design on the welcome sign also mirrored the border found on the rehearsal dinner card from the invitation suite. It’s truly these tiny details that make your wedding day and that we love to include.
Vinyl Record Wedding Details at The Cordelle
One of our favorite elements was the seating chart wall, which we created entirely from real vinyl records. The couple love vinyl records and color, so naturally we paired the two and leaned into the city’s musical energy while highlighting their love story. Each guest’s name and table assignment were displayed on the vinyl record, and each album cover artwork depicted a special moment in their love story! All of this was beautifully displayed on a white installation with The Beatles song lyrics “All you need is love” written above the display.
We kept the vinyl record theme going by using them as table numbers as well, tying the whole concept together beautifully. I just love these design concepts that are carried throughout the day! At the dinner table, you could also find the custom menus we created tucked into light pink napkins.
To honor Nashville’s creative roots, we also designed a hatch print–inspired poster for the guestbook. Guests were able to sign the poster as a keepsake for the couple.
This wedding was such a joy to design! We love creating wedding details that reflect the couple and tell a story from beginning to end, and this Cordelle wedding was the perfect example of that.

Recently featured in The Wren, this Cedarmont Farm wedding editorial was an absolute dream to create for. The entire design concept centered around texture, warmth, and timeless romance, and we wanted every detail of the paper goods and signage to reflect that. I am in love with the results from these Cedarmont Farm textured wedding details.
A Warm, Earthy Vision for This Cedarmont Farm Wedding
Set among the rolling hills of Franklin, Tennessee, Cedarmont Farm is a venue that beautifully blends historic charm with modern touches. Its elegant interiors made it the perfect backdrop for this editorial. Our goal was to pull as much texture as possible into each stationery and signage element.
Elegant and Classic Textured Invitation Suite
The invitation suite set the tone for the event with handmade, textured paper and a classic wax seal for an organic yet elevated look. We paired the suite with light tan envelopes. The combination of warm neutrals and refined materials perfectly echoed the editorial’s color palette inspired by Pantone’s Mocha Mousse.
Day-of Details: Fabric Signage
For the bar signage and seating chart, we continued the theme of texture and flow with custom fabric signage, which brought a sense of cohesion to the space. The seating chart flowed in the wind as was placed outside in the seating area. The bar sign was a statement piece as it draped over the front of the bar listing all the beverages available.
Fabric continued to take center stage as we created fabric menus that draped effortlessly across each place setting, adding softness and movement to the tablescape.
To complement the other design elements, we also incorporated leather place cards. Each detail worked together to create a cohesive visual narrative that invited you to see and feel the design. This vibe was enhanced by the muted floral tones and boho-inspired flower arrangements that decorated the space adding movement and beauty.
It was a dream to collaborate with such a talented team of wedding professionals and bring this vision to life.

I absolutely love when couples do things differently or incorporate details that aren’t your typical wedding choices. For Madeline and James’ Vintage Wedding at Union Station Hotel in Nashville, we were able to produce some unique day of details that leaned into the couple personally, as well as highlighted the historic Nashville venue, Union Station Hotel.
Once a bustling train station, the venue is now a luxury hotel that still carries the character, charm, and timeless elegance. It was the perfect backdrop for a wedding that celebrated their love of vintage style, literature, and timeless design. It was such an honor to create the custom invitations and wedding day details, like the vintage hotel key seating chart, vintage book table numbers, and train-inspired save the dates that tied their vision together.
All Aboard: Train Ticket-Inspired Save the Dates
We kicked things off with a playful nod to Union Station’s history. Their save the dates were designed to look like vintage train tickets. Guests instantly got a feel for the historic venue, creating the perfect prelude to their big day.
For their invitations, we leaned into a more classic, elevated design with white and navy taking center stage. The suite echoed the timeless elegance of Union Station, as the border of the invitation looked similar to the ornate architectural details found inside Union Station.
Seating Chart Display
A mirrored welcome sign greeted guests with timeless elegance as they entered the venue. They then made their way to the seating chart installation, which was one of the most memorable elements from their day.
To play off the venue being a hotel, we designed a display featuring vintage-style keys. The backdrop was a navy blue wall with small hooks, each holding a key paired with a guest’s name and table assignment. Not only did this create a fun and unexpected experience for guests, but it also doubled as a beautiful installation that perfectly fit the historic setting.
Vintage Book-Inspired Wedding Details
Because the couple are book lovers, it only made sense to incorporate that love into their wedding details. I hand-painted vintage books with numbers in gold to use as table numbers. The result was amazing!
These custom table numbers looked stunning on the elegant tablescapes, which were made complete with gold plates, navy napkins, and the custom menus we created.
Some of the tabletop signage was displayed inside vintage books as well. At the dessert table, for example, the display listed out the selections for the mini pie bar, all while tying into the couple’s love of literature.
The signature cocktail signs in gold frames, were another element created by White Ink, with the colors and font matching those on the invitation.
A Vintage Celebration at Union Station Hotel
This Union Station Hotel wedding was brimming with thoughtful, personalized touches. Every element tied back to the couple’s love for history, literature, and vintage style, all while honoring the character of one of Nashville’s most iconic venues.

I am so excited to share the details from this timeless black and white wedding at The Trillium Venue in East Tennessee. There is so much to love about this wedding, from the breathtaking views of the Great Smoky Mountains to the detailed artwork and wine seating chart we had the joy of designing. This wedding had a modern, romantic vibe that paired effortlessly with the venue’s architecture, floor-to-ceiling windows, and panoramic backdrop. It’s easy to see why Kaitlan and Michael chose The Trillium as the setting for their gorgeous wedding day.
We had the honor of designing the couple’s custom invitations and day-of wedding details. Every element reflected the elegant, timeless, and classic vision they had for their day.
Black and White Invitation Suite with Custom Artwork
The invitation suite was truly a work of art. Designed in a classic black-and-white palette, the suite featured elegant typography and a custom details card with artwork of significant places from the couple’s wedding weekend.
We designed artwork of The Pines, the charming venue where the rehearsal dinner took place, and The Trillium, where their wedding day unfolded. The event timeline included playful illustrations for food, cocktails, music, and more, giving guests a preview of all that was to come.
A sleek black band held the suite together featuring the couple’s names and wedding date in white. It was simple, refined, and elevated and just like the celebration itself. I love how this wedding invitation set the tone for their wedding day.
Wine-Inspired Seating Chart
One of our favorite details was the wine bottle seating chart wall, inspired by the bride’s vision. She expressed early on that she dreamed of having a wine seating chart. And we always try to make our clients’ dreams a reality! To make her vision to come to life, we designed and created a packable display that could be transported from Nashville to East Tennessee.
The bride’s father and the groom came to pick up the display before the wedding day, and you could tell it was bonding time for them! They were the absolute sweetest. The father of the bride even shared a little about his upcoming speech for the wedding leaving us all teary-eyed!
At the wedding, the display featured three rows of three sleek black shelves mounted on a crisp white wall. The nine wine bottles featured each guest’s name in alphabetical order along with their assigned on a custom wine label. Greenery was woven throughout the display for a natural, romantic finish. Beside it stood a clean white title sign with the couple’s last name, The Hauns, and the words “Please Be Seated” in classic black lettering.
Day-of Details: Wedding Signage
Every detail carried through the couple’s timeless aesthetic. Greeting guests with elegance was the wedding welcome sign, which was a gold-framed mirrored sign featuring “Forever Starts Here” in white calligraphy at the top, along with the couple’s names and wedding date at the bottom.
We also created two different bar signs. One was a modern black acrylic sign that listed available drink options in white lettering, keeping things sleek.
The other was a white specialty cocktail sign with black lettering and illustrations of the couple’s signature drinks, which included an Espresso Martini, Old Fashioned, and Blackberry Lemonade.
Timeless Black and White Wedding Details
The Trillium Venue is truly stunning inside and out. Even from inside, guests can still take in the scenic mountain views through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The tablescapes at the reception wove their timeless black and white theme with crisp white napkins sitting atop black plates. black place cards with white calligraphy created a striking contrast. White floral centerpieces and flickering candlelight elevated the romance of the setting.
Every piece of stationery and signage was designed to reflect the couple’s elegant and classic vision, while also including a touch of personality. Weaving in custom details throughout their wedding day added personality, shared their story, and set the stage for a truly unforgettable wedding day.
Kaitlan and Michael, thank you for letting us be a part of your special day!

This gorgeous Clementine Hall wedding was a true reflection of creativity, elegance, and personal touches woven throughout the day. We had the joy of designing both their invitation suite and many of their day-of details, and every element wove the couple’s story and style into their big day.
Elegant Letter-Pressed Invitations
One of our favorite parts of this wedding was how involved the groom was in the design process and the overall aesthetic, which we love! Together, we created a letterpress invitation suite that set the tone for the celebration. A soft blue vine design bordered the invitation, while dreamy light blue lettering paired beautifully with an envelope liner resembling a watercolor field of flowers. The suite was layered with a vellum overlay, tied together with a thick, dusty blue ribbon, and finished with a gold wax seal. It was elevated, romantic, and timeless.
Limoncello Wall + Escort Tags
During our consultation, the couple mentioned that they LOVE limoncello. Naturally, we knew this had to play a starring role in their wedding design, so we designed a custom seating chart around limoncello, and it was better than we envisioned! Guests were welcomed with the seating chart wall display featuring three columns of shelving, each lined with bottles of homemade limoncello (or lemonade for those littles in attendance). Yes, you read that right, the couple made the limoncello themselves!! Talk about a personal touch!
Each bottle featured a circular escort tag with the guest’s name and table assignment. Across the top of the display, we added the playful phrase: “Take a ‘cello and Please Be Seated.” At the base of the installation, lush florals completed the look, making this display not just a seating chart, but a true statement piece and guest favorite.
Day-Of Details: Wedding Signage
Beyond the invitations and seating chart, we created several custom paper goods and signage to carry the couple’s aesthetic throughout the celebration. A white fabric wedding welcome sign with soft blue lettering set the tone from the moment guests arrived. Bar signage featured signature cocktails inspired by the couple’s beloved dogs, Willow and Luca, complete with hand-sketched portraits. It was a personal detail that had everyone smiling.
Menus and an Elegant Tablescape
Menus sat atop each place setting. The pink, floral patterned plates and gold cutlery added a pop of color to tables draped in textured white linens and surrounded by soft blue chairs. Candlelight and romantic floral centerpieces tied everything together for an atmosphere that was both inviting and elegant.
From the custom invitation suite to the unforgettable limoncello seating chart wall, every design choice reflected the couple’s personality and vision. This was so much fun to create and bring to life. Congratulations to the newlyweds!
