the etsy wedding team helps haiti

In light of the recent earthquake in Haiti, the Etsy Wedding Team has gotten together and are running a fund raising event from January 29 2010 - February 12 2010. All items listed have been generously donated by various Etsy Wedding Team Members. And all of the proceeds from sales (less etsy and paypal fees) will be donated to The American Red Cross Haiti Relief. We are extremely proud to be a part of this team, and it's relief efforts. Stop by the shop for a fantastic variety of wedding and non-wedding items.

Thank you for looking, and we appreciate your help in our effort to raise money for the people of Haiti.

sketched sophistication - alicia and christopher

subway sweethearts - louisa and adam

Louisa and Adam really like subway maps (and who could blame them?). In fact, they own a collection of them that Louisa gave Adam for Christmas last year. Inspired by the graphic elements commonly used in subway maps, they asked us to design for them a truly unique and personal wedding invitation.

a weekend event - erin and david

This past winter we customized our Teresa wedding invitation for Erin and David to use as a save the date announcing their weekend long wedding celebration in central New York state. They chose to continue on the same theme once it became time to work on the rest of their wedding stationery, and we put together a color scheme of reds and oranges to be used interchangeably throughout the series.

These images include their invitation, rsvp, and information cards. As well as the images of the digital files for their table numbers, escort cards, and program covers, which they printed themselves. Congrats to you two again! I'm glad to hear the weekend (and weather) was fabulous!

modern graduation announcement - ashley rion

Congratulations to fellow Etsy-er, LuckyLightning, on her recent college graduation from Texas A&M Corpus Christi!! To announce the celebration we reworked our Modern Flower Save the Date into a graduation announcement for her to send out to friends and family. Make sure to check out her store for some awesome vintage upcycling, home decor, and some really fabulous pet beds!

bilingual wedding invitations - anita and nicholas

When Anita and Nicholas contacted us last winter about their wedding invitations they had an idea of what they were looking for. They needed to be able to include their wedding information in Chinese as well as English, and wanted a design symbolic of their heritage. With some help from friends we were able to gather the Chinese text while we worked on the design and what resulted is this double sided invitation set. Congrats again guys! :)

If you're looking for bilingual wedding stationery please contact us! We'd love to hear from you.

creating a custom logo for your wedding - jessica and luke

This past week we worked with Jessica and Luke, an adorable couple out in CA, to come up with a "logo" for  their casual park wedding next spring. Jessica is an avid crafter (hence the yarn) and Luke plays golf. They wanted to meld the two into an image that they can apply to all of the different elements of their wedding stationery and decor. The top one is their final design...the other two were a couple of the other options. :) 

custom printed reception decor - rachel and jonathan

We LOVE when couples send us images from their wedding of the pieces we designed for them! Especially when it's something that doesn't get put together until after it's shipped to them. Last August we worked with an awesome couple up in Canada on several of their stationery pieces (based on our Emily wedding invitation). For their wedding reception centerpieces we printed some vellum sheets to be used around the candle holders, and some little name tags that were tied around bundles of lavender and used as place cards. We also designed and printed their menus and name cards for their cookie bar (which I'm sure was delicious!). I've also included an image of the matching programs we designed and printed for them.

Waiting on the photo credit... :) I'll get it up as soon as I have it!
