The September sky gave way to one of the most gorgeous and memorable weddings we’ve put our touch on, and it couldn’t have happened to a sweeter couple. Witnessing their Boston Public Library wedding day unfold was the cherry on top! Georgi and Jason put together an amazing wedding, and as thrilled as we were to be a part of it all, we hated to see the day come to an end. Couples like this, and weddings like this one, are something we keep close to our hearts.

The detail that I just can’t get over- the veil! Georgi’s veil alone was enough to stop us in our tracks. Draped gently behind her long dark hair, this stunning piece needed its own moment!

Georgi and Jason’s invitation suite boasted a seamless balance of delicate and bold features. Full calligraphy done in rose gold ink complimented the black envelopes beautifully. The invitation suite was letter-pressed with spot calligraphy on stock paper. A beautiful black, vellum overlay elevated the suite and included a custom sketch of the Boston Public Library! This was so much fun to create and one of my favorite details. Vintage postage and a custom rose gold wax seal completed this impeccable design.

White Ink was honored to add to the breathtaking staircase entrance of this unforgettable venue. The sharp black wedding welcome sign topped with white lettering, stood out against an impressive array of florals and lit candles which demanded the attention of each guest as they passed by.

Elegant and Chic Reception Details

Just as Georgi and Jason’s invitation suite and wedding welcome sign harnessed a delicate boldness, so did the table numbers which sat perfectly within the elevated tablescape for their reception. There are times when table signage takes an unassuming role among the tablescape, but then there are moments when table signs play an important part in grabbing the guest’s attention. These sharp lines and block signage with gold numbers set against the soft florals and candles and white linen offered a uniquely formal taste and modern, chic appearance to the 170-year-old venue. A detail which was beautifully and purposefully done.

We love our Nashville couples, that’s no secret. However, the opportunity to meet our couples where they are is something we cherish. Finding ourselves at the Boston Public Library in the presence of Georgi and Jason along with their closest family and friends was an incredible moment. It was such an honor to have been a part of this incredible journey with the perfect couple. To Georgi and Jason, thanks for the memories that will last forever. Cheers!

Florals are Forever | Cheekwood Spring Wedding Details | Molly + Cam

When it comes to planning a spring wedding in Nashville that can deliver an enchanting array of florals, Cheekwood Estate reigns supreme. If you know me, then you probably know about my obsession with florals, especially when it comes to invitations. There is nothing better than using the florals in an invitation suite that match the florals at the event, as well as the decor throughout the day! That is the cherry on top when designing invites and day-of-details.

This past April, White Ink had the honor of working with the sweetest couple on their wedding day stationary details. Molly and Cam share the same love for florals that I do! Together, we created one of my favorite suites to date. I’m so excited to share this one.

This invitation suite was so inspiring for me and the White Ink team to create. We loved having the chance to let the beauty of florals and calligraphy interlace in the most magnificent ways.

Dusty Rose Invitation Suite

To design this invitation suite we used full spot calligraphy in dusty rose ink and letter pressed onto beautiful, white stock card. I love the unique, tilted orientation of the print. Each of these details makes this invite very memorable to the guests receiving them.

I also want to point out one of the best parts about this suite: the floral design that is printed on the beautiful dusty rose envelope liner is the very floral print that lined the bar at the reception area of the wedding day. Tying together wedding day details is a top-tier move. Tying together floral details is magical.

Custom Escort Cards

Our fun continued with Molly and Cam’s guest escort cards. These cards were done using delicate scalloped cardstock in a dusty rose color (a fast favorite for many of our clients!), with Spot calligraphy.

A grand, round, linen table topped with bold florals in the center displayed these gently designed escort cards, which I personally loved! It’s all about balance, and this is a gorgeously perfect example.

Molly and Cam took the time to bring in florals throughout the wedding day decor. The remarkable scenery of Cheekwood only enhanced these beautiful details. I look back on this project fondly and I am so proud of how wonderfully it all came together for our amazing couple. The florals seem to speak their own special language that people intuitively understand. Florals represent life and love. Florals are forever.

Invitation Appreciation | Libby + Ben | 6.18.22

Last summer was filled with a rush of the most breathtaking weddings we have ever seen. Nashville weddings simply do not disappoint. Libby and Ben’s Scarritt Bennett nuptials gives us a glimpse of the amazing wedding season we had as they showcased classic details and unforgettable design that left us speechless.

If you are from Nashville, then you are probably familiar with the reputation of Scarritt Bennett as one of Nashville’s most historic and timeless venues. Libby and Ben’s style laced seamlessly together with the design of the gorgeous Wightman Chapel at Scarritt Bennett. So much so, that custom artwork of the famous chapel was printed for the envelope liner in their invitation suites!

Libby was a bride that was not only excited by calligraphy, but also had a deep appreciation for classic letterpress. (I could cry tears of joy, honestly because- same.) She gave us the green light to design her and Ben’s invitation suites in FULL spot calligraphy and letterpress! In the world of calligraphy, THIS is about as stunning as it gets, folks. Enjoy!

Our couple chose to use envelope calligraphy in white which paired beautifully against the dusty blue envelopes.

Libby and Ben’s reception venue was at the fabulous Belle Meade Country Club. This location definitely fit with the chic and classic energy of the day. The details flowed together flawlessly throughout the entire event. Absolutely nothing was underdone. We are especially proud to show off the final look of our couple’s seating chart! This is one of our favorite charts to date. The seating chart boasted dozens of brilliant little escort cards complete with custom spot calligraphy and tassels to top it all off. Unique but chic is the name of the game here. And I’m so in love with it.

White Ink continued our touch on this special day through details like Libby and Ben’s custom bar signage and some of the most adorable cocktail napkins with prints of the couple’s fur babies, Max and Zuzu. Cocktail hour is the perfect time to include special things like beloved pets! This is quickly becoming a popular theme.

I say it all the time, but White Ink Calligraphy really does have the best couples and clients ever. It was such an honor to work with Libby and Ben throughout the planning process all the way to the big day. I was moved by their appreciation for sophisticated detail and we were happy to make it all happen for these two. We appreciate you! Cheers!
