The Save the Date is the first peek of your wedding that guests will receive and it certainly sets the tone for everything that follows. There are all sorts of creative ideas out there from flip books to video but for today, I wanted to share something a little more traditional. Letterpress printing gives the rich texture of light and shadow created by these clean-walled impressions giving it its unique beauty. While the art of this relief printing is classic, the customization of color and font allow for a variety of personalized looks.
I have been loving so much of what I have been seeing from the SMOCK letterpress wedding line. Their Save the Dates are part of their overall wedding stationery suite which coordinates invitations as well as all reception stationery. Their use of the timeless letterpress print is often combined with contemporary design and beautiful color.
Iris and Frank were married at Scripps Seaside Forum this past September. I had the privilege of working with them for the year leading up to their wedding. From the very beginning, we knew we were designing an event that would incorporate both Iris’s modern whimsy AND Frank’s traditional sophistication. Beyond a beautiful wedding, Frank and Iris wanted to create a warm atmosphere that would share who they are with their friends and family. From the bold colors and spherical shapes to the customized puzzle and sprinkles cupcakes, their wedding was as playful as it was elegant. Congratulations Frank and Iris!
We hope you enjoy the snapshot of their day!
Thank you to Tim Otto Photography for the images.
One of the main reasons Frank and Iris selected Scripps Seaside Forum as their venue was for the panoramic views which we did not want to obstruct with a traditional altar. Rather, Jennifer Cole Florals created a white petal path including the circle altar of petals. Large silver lanterns framed the aisle and were accented with yellow and white pomander balls. The bride and groom personalized the content of their ceremony booklet which guests took home.
The custom dance floor took center stage with guest tables surrounding it. Midnight blue Isabella lines draped each of the tables in a decadent rosette appliqué. The room itself was flanked in a sheer white backdrop allowing the complimentary colors to pop.
Guests were treated to a “Peach Whellini” during the reception followed by a Sprinkle’s cupcake with a carton of milk. Their patterned cake was topped with a pair of penguins. You would have had to have been a guest to understand why but Iris did share the story!
As the sun went down, the room took on an entirely new atmosphere as each of the centerpieces glowed with a soft blue light. Accent lighting softened the room what the custom capiz shell chandelier adorned the patio. Come the end of the evening, Frank and Iris were swept away in a vintage 1956 Rolls Royce. A perfect end to a perfect day!
“Dear Liz,
Thank you so much for making our dream wedding come true! The day was amazing, unforgettable and so smooth. We both had an incredible time and still reminisce about all of the little details. Our family and friends had endless compliments, many of which were that it was the most beautiful wedding they had been to. It was truly a spectacular day! We really enjoyed working with you all the way through. You were always cheerful and made us laugh while reassuring us that everything would come together… and it did! Thank you for being patient with us. I’m so happy we were both involved in the planning because it was an experience all on it’s own. It definitely would not have been so enjoyable if we had not worked with you. Thank You!
Love, Iris and Frank”
