Lohn-Caragine Wedding

I met this wonderful bride, Dana, online on a wedding forum. Through emails and various phone conversations, we planned an overall scheme for her wedding stationery. She wanted elegant, tailored and glitzy with a theme of "An Enchanted Evening" for her wedding.

I started by designing her Save the Date. It was a 5" x 7" booklet bound with a black eyelet. The front featured the words Tying the Knot with a black grosgrain ribbon. The pages inside the booklet contained information about the wedding weekend.



I was then contacted by the Bride's mother to design her bridal shower invitations! Taking inspiration from her Save the Dates, I created a black outter jacket that was tied with gold ribbon. Inside contained a childhood photo of the Bride and the shower information.



I went in a different direction for her wedding invitations. I started with a shimery pearl white PocketFold pared with a tone-on-tone white and antique gold flowered backing. A satin ribbon and personalized label topped off the outside of the invitation. A reception card, direction card and RSVP rounded out the ensemble.

Hi Dani! You did a GORGEOUS job on those invitations, save-the-dates and more! Your creativity and reliability gave me such confidence that the finished product would be dazzing - and it WAS!
I highly recommend Dani and am positive that you'll find her work as distinctive as I did.
