How adorable are these illustrated programs from Joanna Goddard’s wedding? The artwork was done by the talented Anna Bond, and features a quote from one of our favorite books, The History of Love by Nicole Krauss.

Kimberly Canale, Brooklyn, NY Vendor: Event Designer Website: Inspired Goodness About Me: From the moment the engagement ring was slipped onto my finger, I've been in love with all-things-wedding. I still get teary eyed reading proposal stories in magazines and love sneaking a peek at a bride and groom glancing at one another for the first time, as the ceremony is about to begin. With each of my clients, I get to know their personality, family background and hear the story of how they met and fell in love. Each piece becomes another element from which I use to build the overall vision for their wedding day. As the Creative Director at Inspired Goodness, my job is to create the various details that makes each of our weddings come to life. My work incorporates classic elements; engraving, hand calligraphy and vintage typography. Using a mix of found objects and flea market pieces lends a rich history to my work and challenges me to find creative ways to use mass-produced elements, each with a chic and timeless result. With every new client, I get to explore avenues I've yet to pass and love knowing that the next adventure is just around the corner!

Favorite Tool: Embosser

October 2nd, 2009 @ 12:32 pm by Kim @ Inspired Goodness

Without a doubt, one of the best desk accessories I have is a custom made address embosser. I originally purchased it for stamping my return address on my wedding invitations, and ever since it has left a beautiful mark and lasting impression on any correspondence I send.

I actually have two embossers in my arsenal - one rectangular and the other is round. Since we recently moved into a new apartment, it has now come time to update my plates.

Felt Mailing Envelopes

September 18th, 2009 @ 5:16 pm by Sabrina & Eunice @ Hello! Lucky

How adorable are these felt mailing envelopes by Keiko of Small Adventure? We love how you can use them as gift wrap – they even come with “to” and “from” labels that are tucked into plastic sleeves on the front. With extra labels included, it’s the gift that keeps on giving! Genius!

Program Fabulousness

September 2nd, 2009 @ 8:32 am by Wiley Valentine

We recently designed a program for one of our fabulous retailers, Watermark Stationery, in Minnesota. They are always so much fun to work with and this project was no exception. Using the Flagel design from our Luxe album as the inspiration we created this folded 2 sided program. The program was flat printed on 100% cotton paper (tree free). Loving the results!

Lovely Letterpress Coasters

August 13th, 2009 @ 5:44 pm by Cynthia @ Bella Figura

When we first started printing custom letterpress coasters, we couldn’t stop - they are just so much fun! As it turns out, they are still among our favorite things to print. There is truly no better way to add a unique personalized touch to your wedding than with lovely letterpress coasters. We love when couples incorporate a special monogram or recipes for signature cocktails, but they’re equally as fun when printed with a special motif that a couple is incorporating throughout their event. If you’re looking for that perfect way to infuse your event with personal flair, letterpress coasters are always a homerun!

Wedding Cakes + Stationery

July 30th, 2009 @ 11:27 am by Sabrina & Eunice @ Hello! Lucky

Tracy from The Buttercream Studio just sent us this photo of a cute wedding cake she created based on our Chandelier wedding invitation by EIEIO. It reminded us that wedding invitations and stationery can be great source of inspiration for cakes - sometimes the design motifs on the invitation translate really well into 3-D and can help carry a consistent style through the details of wedding day.

Vintage Peonies & Peonies + Letterpress

July 8th, 2009 @ 4:39 pm by Sarah @ Parrott Design Studio

The wedding is going to be a formal and elegant affair with a reception in a Victorian era casino. Inspired by the casino, the bride knew exactly what she wanted - peonies with a vintage flourish. Pink and green are the wedding colors and complement the imagery so well. I must say I love the reception card. If I were a recipient, I would hang this up…right next to the invitation of course! :grin:

Letterpress for Modern Bride’s Trendsetters Awards Dinner

July 7th, 2009 @ 8:32 am by Cynthia @ Bella Figura

You probably already know that around here, printing gorgeous letterpress invitations makes us absolutely giddy. With that said, when Smock had the opportunity to print the letterpress invitations, escort cards and menus for the recent Modern Bride Trendsetters Awards Dinner, it was a sincere honor and so much fun! Printing beautiful things is what makes us excited about what we do everyday, but being able to print the invitations for such a fabulous event, honoring amazing wedding professionals we truly admire, was especially exciting.

Laura Hooper, Northridge, CA Vendor: Calligraphy Website: Laura Hooper Calligraphy About Me: I've been practicing the art of calligraphy since the age of 12 and nothing gives me more pleasure than waking up each morning knowing I get to do what I do each day. I love having the ability to infuse my own personal style into each of my bride's special day. When I'm not working, I enjoy traveling, hiking, reading and painting; but most of the time I don't consider calligraphy to be work at all!

Real Weddings - Beavercreek, CO

Take a look at this amazing letter press invitation suite by Nessa Sander of Cardgirl. The bride and groom ordered their invitations, reply cards, itinerary with map on the reverse side, welcome cards for their welcome packages, escort cards and even personalized notecards for their thank yous - all in warm shades of brown and sepia. The “outdoorsy” look is exemplified through not only the custom invitation design, but also the shimmery brown envelopes and calligraphy in two different shades.
