Noelle & Guy’s New Year’s Eve Wedding
I had a wonderful time working with Noelle and Guy. We first met to start talking about invitations in August! It was great having lots of time to work together (email, meet ect.)
I designed a more traditional wedding invitation that was kept closed by a “C” label. I also formatted and printed all of their invitation envelopes (matching the font and color in the invite)
The rsvp card with it’s envelope, the reception card, and the direction card were all held together on the side of the invitation by a ribbon. A matching ribbon knot was used at the top of the invitation for added visual interest.
All of the components were layered to allow for easy accessibility of the information.
I also designed double sided table number cards that coordinated with the wedding invitation.
The bride created her own table number “stands” using wine corks, accent ribbon and a “C” wax seal for a finishing touch. I love this idea! It is classy & unique….not to mention matches the New Year’s Eve evening reception theme. Great job Noelle!
As part of the wedding favors the couple gave each guest a lottery ticket enclosed in a glassine bag sealed with a label that I designed.
A folded napkin at each place setting held the favor and the menu card.
I included a timeline of the evenings events at the bottom of the menu card. Its a nice way for guests to know what will be happening throughout the night.
The couple also asked me to design signs for the bar. They had some special wines being offered during the evening.
A seating chart is a decorative way to guide guests to their assigned tables.
When I first met with Angela she had already picked out the fabric for the table runners and she knew they wanted to contiune the dark blue color and crystal theme throughout the wedding day. I found blue paper that matched the fabric perfectly.
Since the invitation was a more traditional flat card, the rsvp card and envelope, reception card, and direction card were wrapped in a ribbon and closed with a coordinating label to keep the wedding stationary elements together.
I added ten swarovski crystals to the invitation to add an extra element of fun and contiune the crystal theme.
Whittney and James chose a invitation design that had a pocket to hold the rsvp card, rsvp envelope, reception and direction card. I think this is a great idea… having all of the invitation elements in one spot.
The green swarovski crystals added an extra unique element to the invite.
Instead of using table numbers Whittney and James decided to name each table a local landmark in the Traverse City area.

Since the wedding was in late August and the ceremony was scheduled to be outside Whittney and James decided to have fans for the programs to help the guests cool off a bit.
For the favors Whittney and James gave everyone chocolate and yogurt covered cherries. I found glassine bags and created thank you labels to close the bags. 
The bachelorette party started with wine tasting at a local winery. 
An animal print theme bachelorette party. I thought fabric would be great to create a fun 3-D invite. Fabric is a bit tricky to adhere to paper, I discovered! 
I love the matching plates and other special touches the hosts put together to continue the theme.
Another shower detail…I had custom place mats made for both grandma’s, mommy, daddy, and a special bib made for the baby on the way.
