Those symmetrical venues get me every time, y’all. Did you know I illustrate for all kinds of designers and people? Venues, storefronts, your first home... you name it. And I’ve pretty much covered New Orleans (more on that later this week). But if you want something illustrated, holler and I’ll happily let you in on the process so you can help me fill my sketchbook!

So I know I JUST talked about my love for neutrals on my last post, but I recently used this silk ribbon for Jen’s bridal shower at @hauteofftherack ...and I mean, come on! These gem tones are hard to say no to! What’s your favorite non-neutral color? I’m kind of into this color and a deeper mauve-ish color! 🎨

I don’t know what it is but I’d take shades of neutral over anything ...so much that my three year old told me her favorite color is black. Day. Made. 👯
.
And anything from #fixerupper makes my day to know I’m not the only one who just wants black and white EVERYTHING ...with doses of wood from my cutting boards.

I NEED YOU! This suite has been a favorite from the semi-custom collection. I’ll be adding new collections soon (yay) but TELL ME HOW YOU REALLY FEEL:
.
👉 clean and crisp
👉 organic and raw
👉 a mix of both
.
What kind of mood or feel are you MOST attracted to when it comes to stationery. This one’s a mix of both ...you have your handmade, more organic envelope, but a clean and crisp stock for the invitation. 💯 .
What’s your vote?

I talked about a lot of life happening a couple of days ago ...it’s constant board the hustle bus lately - all good, just B.U.S.Y. Yesterday. You know what this crew did? We stayed in pajamas ALL day. ...and I mean that quite literally. We made muffins, tents, and rested like it was Saturday or something. The kids even put themselves down for a nap. #parentingwin
.
With a weekend like we’ve had so far, I’m ready to tackle Monday ..maybe I’m just hyped up from the Barre class at @bodysculptbarremagnolia that just whipped my you know what. ...cheers to downtime though! 📷 @tahjahharmony

There’s a lot of life happening these days. A lot of good. A lot of hustle. A LOT of crashing as soon as the head hits the pillow. Cheers to the crazy, y’all. But don’t forget to sit. Don’t forget to rest. Don’t forget to greet peace when it finds you - whether that be the five minutes you have before your lunch break is over, the carpool line, or that moment in between your head hitting the pillow and your conscience mind giving in. I’m not sure if I’m telling you these notions or myself, but cheers to it all. Cheers to life. ...and #TGIF.

Which is your fav? The semi-custom collection houses six wedding suites for you to “build” your ideal package (scroll ‘em through to see them all). Completely “shopable” online, you can select your set-pieces, printing method, and quantity at a few clicks of the button.
.
These shopable collections, although semi-custom in nature, still FEEL custom. I’m still printing them on a near century old press. The venues are still illustrated by yours truly. We can alternate typefaces and layouts and ink color... Call it semi-custom all you want, but the end results vary so much from one couple to the next! It’s amazing to see all the different variations!! #tlbcwed

Cheers to all the brides and grooms - whether you are at the finish line of your engagement or the starting point! If you’ve just made it past go, gift yourself the gift of devotion and intention as you plan these upcoming months.
.
The Wedding Guide is wedding planner + devotion + journal ...and my past 5+ years worth of brides helped me design it! 📖 .
Make a couple of taps in the bio to check out the blueprints of what all is inside.

On a mission to make my backyard look like this. Oh @pv_rentals, you never disappoint. ...and @catherineguidry you always capture the most stunning scenes and moments. If you’re recently engaged, two over and check out these two gems!

When I collab with my custom brides, a friendship is born. We are typically together from very early on in the engagement down to the wedding. These are my VIPs. I think even more than the stationery process, I enjoy surprising my couples with endless love and affection ...and GIFTS... like custom vow books (or thank you notes, or additions to their stationery ...just because). Because my brides seriously fuel my heart. They are absolutely amazing and creative and such a joy to work with - who wouldn’t want to sing their praises!

I love finding those meaningful little details from a couples story and incorporating that in a way that really just speaks who they are. My goal is for your guests to open that pretty envelope and just say “oh this is SO them.”
.
This couple here! They are both avid dancers and we incorporated little happies through out different aspects of their stationery. As opposed to the traditional “attending” line on the rsvp, we used “I already shined my dancing shoes and will meet you on the dance floor.” I mean 😍. ...and this rose gold Dine and Dance line for the reception card just fit right in.

Anyone else an avid birthday celebrator? I start counting down to my May 4th birthday right after the new year. ...and if someone wants to get me these bowls from #MagnoliaMarket, that would be acceptable. Oh or just anything from Magnolia Market. ...or gift card ...or just Joanna Gaines herself. We’d be great friends. #happymonday

Meet the team. ...my two assistants. You may find them covered in packing tape on shipment days. You may find them using vintage stamps as stickers. You may find them using their pointer fingers as knot-holders as I tie silk bows around cotton papers.

...or you may find them about to take flight off the top of my headboard. #mompreneur

Thank you @tahjahharmony for always capturing these two and their adventures!
