An elegant wedding invitation suite I designed for my friend Henry and his fiancé Christina. I was so happy he reached out for help and even more happy they loved the final result. Just a few more days and these two love birds tie the knot! I wish them an amazing wedding day and a love filled journey as husband and wife. Soon the adventure begins.

Early this year, I had the pleasure of designing my first wedding album for an overseas event. Margaret and Stephen’s romantic wedding in Italy was simply stunning. Not only was it classic and elegant, the location added an enormous amount of rustic glamour you just don’t see everyday. The album was a gift from Margaret to her husband and she chose the fabric flush mount album from my modern collection along with a matching presentation box. Needless to say, it came out gorgeous.

All the amazing photographs were taken by Lelia Scarfiotti. Here is a sneak peek into their special day.

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!
