Kathryn and Kyle were a ton of fun to work with on these vintage and modern typography New Years Eve wedding invitations. The wedding was held at The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. Her coordinator, Misty Trompeter from Bells and Bliss had shown her the New Years Eve invitations that I did last year […]
With my post yesterday about my New Year’s Eve dinner, I decided to make this “New Year’s Eve at Gourmet Invitation” week. I had five New Year’s Eve Weddings this past year. The first to be profiled is Kathryn’s Detroit Theme wedding. The wedding was held at the Detroit Yacht Club on Belle Isle. Kathryn […]

The inspired wedding was featured last week on The Bride’s Cafe! Check it out to see more photos. My favorites are below. […]

Katie’s barn theme wedding had more details than most any wedding I’ve done. There were signs everywhere, but I unfortunately wasn’t able to photograph them. Fortunately though, Kara Purtell did an amazing job capturing all of the images and you’ll be seeing more of them soon. 🙂 Big thanks too to Ana from TwoFoot Creative […]
Christine’s invitations are another of my favorites this year. I loved using so many fonts to come together to create such a unique invitation. The reception items were no exception to that. The menus were designed in a deep purple and the layout is so fun with large carnival like headings and different fonts for […]
