One of our first orders was for a lovely two-color damask wedding suite. She is having a preppy, vintage, garden themed wedding and her colors were navy and pink- love the contrast!  We drew up two possible designs and she liked them so much she can’t decide which to use!  Fortunately, her wedding isn’t until […] Read more…

Their invitations are a very elegant white and black with a thick […] Read more…
