Come (Bike) Way with Me

Hello, folks! We have been busy with a lot of projects, and it’s about time that we catch up and share some of the behind the scenes with you. First up is a modern take on a seaside wedding affair with lots of unexpected touches and sass.

This photo shoot was the brainchild of Brea McDonald and Azalea Events with whom we were very excited to work. Red and white stripes, a vintage tandem bike, and a magnificent home off the rocky shores of Maine were some tidbits that were described to us — it sounded like way too much fun to pass up! We were immediately inspired by the meaning and playfulness of the tandem bike and kept this as the focus for the paper details. Using bright red and gold inks, we paired the imagery with clean type going at an angle for a bold statement. We designed and letterpress printed everything from the invitation suite to the escort cards, menus, signage, and coasters.

I sadly could not make it to the shoot but the photos say it all. Seeing all of the creative elements come together from the bike wheels turned chandeliers to the champagne bar on the beach made me smile in glee. And lucky for us, the talented Meg Simone worked her magic and caught the highlights of the day on video. To top everything off, this oh-so-pretty shoot made its way in the first issue of WellWed Maine and New Hampshire. We are thrilled not only for the opportunity to work with such inspiring wedding professionals but also to be in the pages of Well Wed Magazine!

Crane Estate Wedding Show

We are excited to be a part of the Seaside Wedding Show taking place at Castle Hill on the Crane Estate. I’ve heard wonderful things about the Crane Estate from our brides and grooms who have gotten married there, but I have not had the pleasure of going myself.  So when the opportunity came to participate in the event, I was elated! I have no doubt I will be drawn to its grand architecture and ocean views as so many have. 

If you’re dreaming of a regal backdrop for your wedding and want to meet some wedding experts in the region, I highly recommend that you come join us. And or course, we’ll be there ready to show off our work and talk about invitations! Details are as follows:

Sunday, April 21 at noon

The Crane Estate
290 Argilla Road
Ipswich, Massachusetts

Tickets are available online today for $10 or on the day of the show at the door for $15.

Lovesick Expo

Now that have returned from the holidays (some of us more tan than others), we are excited to kick off the 2013 wedding season. Happy engagement to all of you couples out there who are looking forward to saying their “I do’s” this year!

You’re likely glowing from all of the excitement until you start writing out lists of everything that needs to get done. Why not tackle some of that planning and be amused, delighted, and just plain ol’ inspired! Here’s where the Lovesick Expo comes in. Get to know vendors, check out the sleek green space at the Artists for Humanity, or catch a circus show (no, seriously). We’ll be there with our letterpress wedding collection and ready to get your ideas on paper! 

Hope to see you on January 20. Don’t worry, you’ll be back home in time to catch the next episode of Downton Abby! More info and tickets: www.lovesick.expo.com
