Bold Navy Pen and Ink Save the Date Map

New illustrated map Save the Dates for Jessica and Anthony's October 2019 wedding. A monochromatic, pen and ink map in navy makes a real statement. The nautical color is always a good choice for a Bay Head Yacht Club wedding.

Gold foil loveliness with a Touch of Pink

Gold foil letterpress is always a stunner, and when it shows off original art, it’s even more special. This handlettering was created for Lauren and Christian, and used first on their Save the Dates 

Medieval-Themed Save the Dates

Kelly and Mike met in high school. It was there that they discovered a shared love of gaming. In particular World of Warcraft. These colorful save the dates are part video game, part medieval theme.

The enchanting Ashford Estate in Allentown, NJ is a very romantic wedding venue. The beautiful architecture and landscaping are a sight to behold. It is captured here in this digital illustration, created just for Kimber and Rob’s save the date cards. 

Composite, Customized Save the Dates

Sometimes we meet with clients who are interested in having an illustrated map commissioned for weddings or save the dates but don't have a lot of time until they will be mailing them. We realized we could offer a compromise and customize an existing map! Lisa and Chris's story was geographically similar to our original blog post here. We were able to Photoshop in some elements I created for other maps and add some digital type. Original hand lettering for "Save the Date" fit right into the space and we were able to give our client a map save the date not soon after.

Wow Factor!

Elegant Save the Dates for Collen and Dan's July 2018 wedding. A bold, geometric pattern in antique gold is offset by a red, metallic lined envelope. Colleen was kind enough to share a couple of her own photos - one showing custom stamps and a shot of the cards, still packaged up and ready to be mailed. She sent them out around the holidays, and the decorations in the background are a nice touch!

Bay Head Yacht Club Save the Dates

A clean, elegant look for Jessica and Jason's Save the Date cards. A watercolor rendering of the Bay Head Yacht Club provides a pop of color.

Jillian and Steve's Mallard Island Yacht Club Nuptials

We used soft Italian cotton paper with a deckled edge and a monochromatic color scheme for Jillian and Steve's wedding invitations. Their save the date featured an original sketch of the Mallard Island Yacht Club boathouse chapel, and the invitations as well were highlighted by soft pencil sketches. Sometimes a challenge arises from working without color, but in this case, all of the elements work well together and no color is necessary.

Katie and Steve's Hibiscus and Magnolia Watercolor Wedding invitations

We are playing catch up posting our summer and fall wedding invitation photos. Here is an original watercolor commissioned for Katie and Steve's wedding, which took place back in September.
