White Ink is no stranger to our neighbors to the north. Kentucky has our heart for many reasons, and we happily add the nuptials of Kathryn and Will to that list. Their wedding took place on Kathryn’s family property, and this wasn’t White Ink’s first appearance at the charming Kentucky home. Only a few years before, Kathryn’s sister also married at this home and asked us to put our creative touch on her wedding. You can imagine our excitement when we got the call to come back! If you’ve ever seen a Kentucky sunset, you might understand exactly why we jumped at a second chance to showcase our work in the bluegrass state.
Every wedding is one of a kind. Like a fingerprint, every couple is unique and expresses themselves in their own unique ways on their big day. Still, some things are worth holding on to and some ideas are worth borrowing. We were delighted that Kathryn and Will wanted to use the same wood boards that Kathryn’s sister used to display their seating chart. Kathryn had them sanded down and restained for her wedding. This isn’t just any seating chart display; these wooden boards stand at a massive eight feet tall! But we didn’t want to just reuse this display, we wanted to add some serious flare to these babies. Hello gold foil flakes! Yeah, about that sunset we mentioned- take a look at how it turned these seating charts into pure magic.
Kathryn and Will allowed us to put together some other really fun details for their wedding celebration. Usually when people think about calligraphy, they think of invites or signage; but calligraphers can do SO much more! Check out the cups and koozies our team put together for this fabulous couple. We not only like stepping outside of the usual requests, but we look forward to it. I personally love that Kathryn and Will included their sweet pups in the details!
There’s something about Kentucky; maybe it’s the sunset, perhaps it’s the landscape. But I’m thinking it has something to do with the people, people like Kathryn and Will. We were invited to celebrate with this awesome family for a second time, and that’s a very special thing to us. Cheers!
