Sarah Parrott, Rhode Island Vendor: Invitation Designer Website: Parrott Design Studio About Me: I am the designer & printer behind Parrott Design Studio, specializing in custom letterpress and screen printed wedding and event invitations, stationery, and paper goods. With a background in non-profit marketing & art history, I began the studio in 2006 in my small apartment in Providence, RI. Since then I have moved to a studio built my fiancé, acquired a Golding Jobber letterpress, & have been happily printing ever since. I grew up in Portland, Maine, and I have always had an affinity for the ocean, mountains, birds, gardening, & the simple life. When I am not printing, I can be found somewhere outside with my fiancé & playful pup.

Nautical Wedding

July 27th, 2009 @ 2:38 pm by Sarah @ Parrott Design Studio

I am really excited about how these invitations came out. They were a real collaborative effort between myself, the bride, groom, and even Rich! The bride and groom came to me with a very clear idea of what they wanted. They gave me a brochure for New Bedford, Massachusetts {where the wedding is going to be} which included a vintage street map of the town. They wanted a vintage and nautical feel to their invitations to set the tone of the day. I love the use of the banner and scroll in this design. The registration was super tight between the deep red banner and deep orange map on the top of the invitation, but it came out spectacularly {with much credit to my PG-11}.

It’s No Wonder

I love this behind-the-scenes glimpse of shooting a MSWedding. It’s no wonder the photographs of the invitations are so impeccable. They take a lot of work…and equipment! I have stood on a lot of furniture in my house in many random places trying to find the best natural light for photographing my stationery and invitations. I have a tripod, which has proved immensely helpful, but goodness look at that tripod! I need me one of those! Along with a stylist, crew, and pretty barn in the background.
