Summer news and a Hey! How are you?

It's been a crazy spring and being the sole employee, somethings I had to let slide, a big one being this poor neglected blog. But hopefully I'll be able to get back into the swing of posting more often and first up is some great summer news. The first is this beautiful lookbook from Vermont Wedding Style that I'm super excited to be a part of. We designed two completely new invitation suites that will be available soon for ordering online (or you can email to order now).
The second is that we're having a great sale now through 7-15-2012 on our signature wedding invitations. Save 10% on orders over $200 and 15% on orders over $500. We rarely have a sale- so be sure to take advantage of this special offer. No codes needed- the discount will be taken when you check out. This offer does not apply to custom designs and only through orders placed through the site.
Lastly, with summer comes the three kids being home more and me having less phone time during the day to take calls or set up meetings. So calls that come in after 1pm EST will be returned the following morning, but I will still be available for questions via email until 4:30 EST.

An Intimate Wedding at Mountain Top Inn

Submitted via Two Bright Lights

From Margaret Belanger Photography:  Anne and Tim got married on a gorgeous early summer day in Vermont. The only people in attendance were Anne's mother, her aunt, and Tim's parents. And of course, Anne and Tim's dogs, Banjo and Chester. Banjo even walked Anne down the aisle! Every little detail of the wedding was important! Anne wore her aunt's high school graduation dress as her wedding dress. She knit the little birds and the nest that held their wedding bands. She made the flag banner that decorated the chateau they stayed in. She made the table runner out of antique fabric and embroidered her and Tim's initials in it, as well as their wedding date. She also made their wedding invitations and announcements. I'm sure there are a million other details that I'm leaving out. It was all so unbelievable and gorgeous! It was such an honor to be there to share in their day. Since there weren't hundreds of guests to contend with, it meant we had plenty of time to take portraits. The Mountain Top Inn was full of amazing photo opportunities and we tried to take advantage of all of them! Anne and Tim had no problem hopping into the canoe and paddling out a little ways. They posed on hay bales and with horses and in fields of flowers. And at the end of it all, they shared a really lovely intimate dinner with their families. It was such a wonderful way to celebrate their marriage!

Shannon & Bart, August Wedding at the Sagamore in Bolton Landing

I should preface this post by letting you know this is my cousin-in-laws gorgeous wedding. Due to a few sick kiddos, I wasn't able to make it, so it meant a lot to see such beautiful, vibrant photos from Keith Hitlin Photography, and then to share them with you!

Congrats Shannon and Bart!

Custom Birch Tree Wedding Invitations

Sarah and Steve came to me last summer looking for a custom winter wedding invitation that did not include snowflakes and would incorporate birch trees in some way. In the end we incorporated two photos- one of a snowy woods (with maple and birch trees) and one one the insert cards (a macro shot of birch bark). Paired with a rich green backing and belly band, along with a dark brown metallic z-fold from Envelopments, it was perfect for a wedding at the Christmas Tree Farm Inn in New Hampshire.

A Martha's Vineyard Engagement Shoot

I love the soft colors and whimsical feel of these photos:

Eli spent his summers on Martha's Vineyard and thought it would be the perfect place to shoot an engagement shoot with his bride-to-be Megan. A North Carolina couple, Megan and Eli flew to the vineyard to spend the weekend exploring and photographing around the island and all of their favorite spots. From Evangeline Lane Photography.


I think engagement shoots are such a great idea- it gives you and your beloved a chance to take some gorgeous candid and relaxed photos without all of the ceremony of a wedding.  Are you doing engagement photos?
