A new addition to my Elegant Collection, the Heirloom Gray Wedding Invitation Suite features a classic and modern design with elegant text. It’s formal and graceful look is perfect for any traditional wedding as well as a more alternative event that isn’t held in a church. It’s fully customizable, like all my items, and celebrates the color gray with clean lines, simple design elements, and an overall grand appeal.

Here are a few inspiration images on how to showcase gray throughout your wedding decor. It works with so many other colors, pink being one of my favorites, and can bring elegance as well as a touch of whimsy to your event. Enjoy!

Claire and Parker are a young Texas couple who had a beautiful, classic wedding. I was happy to recently design a digital album for these two lovebirds, as well as a parent album for Claire’s mother. It was a gorgeous day in June, they shared their vows in church and then partied the night away with their friends and family. Here is a little peek into their special day.

Here is a little look into a wedding album I designed last November. The couple, Elizabeth and Mike, had a beautiful June wedding in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Their ceremony was held on the beach and the reception was outside and tented. I loved all the classic details that were paired with the event’s flawless elegant style. The laid back feel was also a nice touch, staying true to the down to earth beachy vibe. Enjoy!

Having a wedding on Halloween can be a lot of fun. But just because its a holiday you don’t have to necessarily keep it themed. Incorporating orange, black, and other autumn hues can be enough to keep the vibe alive. Be careful not to get too literal or it can turn out like a kids Halloween party and not a wedding.

Just don’t forget what the day means to you and try not to lose sight what is really important. Keep it simple and classy and everything should work out fine. Take cues from this well loved holiday and add fun elements through decor, text, and color and everything will fall into place. Creating a feeling of romance, whimsy, and mystery are perfect undertones for a spectacular event.

Here are some good examples I came across that should bring you inspiration, not just for a Halloween styled wedding but the fall season as well. Enjoy!
