Amy Atlas for Sunday Suppers

Check out this lat­est cre­ation by Amy Atlas, a Moroccan dessert buf­fet for Sunday Suppers. Orange and turquoise is a bold color com­bi­na­tion to begin with, so I love that she didn’t shy away from it and pushed it to its lim­its with the back­drop and var­i­ous patterns.

Invitation du Jour

As I’ve men­tioned before, I’m really into tak­ing down the for­mal­ity a notch with the whole first names only idea. So today I’m lov­ing this mod­ern and unpre­ten­tious invi­ta­tion by Smokeproof Press. Take a look at more of their work in their Flickr stream right here.

Ceremony Locations

Over the week­end we took advan­tage of the gor­geous weather and walked around Central Park to check out poten­tial cer­e­mony loca­tions. You can basi­cally apply for a per­mit and get mar­ried any­where that you like for $25 (aside from the Conservatory Garden, which is $400), so there are tons of pos­si­bil­i­ties. For us, we want to […]

Invitation du Jour

This invi­ta­tion suite, cre­ated by Information Strategist Henry Faber for his own wed­ding, is so much fun. I know noth­ing about Habbo, the online com­mu­nity where the cou­ple met. But I love how they designed the whole set around their per­sonal story, and that they did it so well. I also LOVE that they incor­po­rated the use of […]

Long Overdue

Not sure how I have gone this long with­out men­tion­ing our own phở­tog­ra­pher, Margaret Singer! Photography is eas­ily one of our top pri­or­i­ties  —  if not the top  —  for the entire wed­ding. So book­ing Margaret was one of the first (and most fun) deci­sions we’ve made so far. She is amaz­ingly tal­ented and we can’t wait to work with […]
