Planning a wedding during a pandemic was not something anyone anticipated. Honored to have been included in this roundup of talented wedding vendors by Toney Consulting in her blog, offering their advice to anyone planning a wedding right now!

Completely obsessed with this shot by Michelle Godfrey Photo of our invitation suite for Toney Consulting’s styled shoot this week at the Botanical Gardens. Diecut vellum wrap, silk ribbon, letterpress and foil, wax seals, this babe has all the things! Can’t wait to show you more shots from this gorgeous shoot with so many talented ladies!

Happy Monday! Our glass coffee mugs don’t have to only hold coffee, look how pretty this looks with ice water... or vodka soda... gin and tonic... is it too early to post a picture of cocktails? It’s 2020, so I’m gonna go with no...

Smiling in masks will never not be weird. (But still fine, wear a damn mask!) Honored to be the first artist-in-residence at HANSAworkspace!

"So... what's going on with the shop?" The short answer is, we are changing things up! The Market Arcade is going to look a little difference (a lot different!) in the new normal, but we are rolling with it and doing some new things! Everything will basically stay the same for our weddings clients, but all of our retail is going to move online, AND we are releasing a new line of stationery and gifts! The long answer is up on our blog! Thanks to everyone who has hung out with us on this awesome adventure, we can't wait to show you what we're working on next!

Some pretty wedding stationery to distract you from the Sunday scaries! Lauren and Alex got married yesterday, and even though their day looked different than they initially planned, I’m sure it was full of joy and love! And really isn’t that all that matters?

Is it coffee? Is it wine?? We’re not judging, do what you gotta do. Working on launching our new product line and this one just seemed too perfect for this week. Hybrid, virtual, full homeschool, synchronous, asynchronous; for all the WAHMs, WAHDs, SAHMs, SAHDs, and new HSMs/HSDs out there making the hard decisions this week - hang in there. Edit: definitely spelled homeschool wrong in the listing... ironic??

This gorgeous wedding from last year is everything right now!!

These letterpress cards were the matching thank yous to an invitation suite for this super sweet couple. Even though their wedding day didn’t go as originally planned, they had a gorgeous, intimate ceremony, with all their closest friends and family joining in virtually!

Our hearts are still going out to all our would-be-summer-2020 brides, especially this weekend. Not just the would-be weddings, but would-be showers, bachelorettes/stags, graduations parties, anniversaries... It’s so hard, but we can do hard things. For everyone who has postponed to next year - 2021 is going to be AWESOME!
