Chrissy’s Golden Gate Bridge Seating Chart

I worked with Chrissy’s sister Katie on this chart and it was literally done from order and contract to finished proof in 6 hours. Crazy!

Bridget’s Fold-Out Panel Invitations

Bridget contacted me just after I posted Lindsay’s Invitations earlier this year. She loved the idea and the graphics. We changed this one to a very pretty Art Deco graphic and I designed a date monogram for the front panel. It follows with the invitation, reception and directions on the other 3 panels. I designed […]

Taryn fell in love with Jennifer’s Brunch Invitations and asked if I could make them for her day after brunch at the Ritz-Carlton in California. I of course, changed the design and make these very formal with this script font.
