Sarah and Ross :: Blush and Mauve Wedding in the Mountains
 
 

If you’ve ever wondered if the rain will ruin your wedding, guess again. At Little Nell, Sarah and Ross had the most romantic rainy mountain wedding anyone could have hoped for. With chic white umbrellas and a breathtaking scene, everyone was teary-eyed and swooning over the romance! We loved providing these sweetly painted invitations that showcase their timeless wedding venue of the mountains and trees. We forever love adding the beautiful nature of your location to the invitation suites! Congrats Sarah & Ross and thanks for setting the stage for mountain wedding inspiration for 2023!

Emily and Milam :: A Secret Garden Wedding at Cotswolds England from The House from The Holiday Movie
 
 

You may recognize this charming Cotswolds venue from the holiday rom-com ‘The Holiday’! Emily and Milam had their beautiful ceremony in England, where the couple met, and themed as a secret garden wedding. Their English countryside ceremony was a cohesive garden aesthetic that did not detract from the natural beauty of the estate. Our creative vision was to keep in line with this path and keep her invitations minimalistic and light! The entire affair was such an elegant beautiful event! Check it out in Style Me Pretty’s article here!

Lauren and Jared :: Custom Illustrated Invitation for an Elegant Wedding at Knotting Hill Place
 
 

We couldn’t be more pleased with the final result of our charming Knotting HIll modern wedding suite! Thanks to Lauren and Jared’s classic taste, the style of this timeless affair was so chic! We loved accenting the gorgeous mansion venue as the custom envelope liner, which any bride can make into their own DIY envelope liner.

There certainly is a southern sweetheart charm to their celebration as their pets headlined as their signature cocktail mascots, and custom Texas Hill Country watercolor icons were added to the stationery! What a delight! Congratulations y’all!

Elissa and Cain :: A Dusty Blue Wedding at HighPointe Estate Outside of Austin
 
 

Weddings on beautiful estates are where the modern bride’s eyes are nowadays! Especially when you can show off the elegant historical architecture and beautiful hill country landscaping with custom watercolors of the spaces as an invitation map card! This helps guests visually be able to see what the celebration entails and gets them excited to experience the picturesque locations for themselves!

For this Texas Wedding, Elissa and Cain celebrated in the town with the most beautiful town square in Texas, Georgetown. You can feel all the country chic vibes in their reception hall from their tablescape design, to the wooden rafters, to the acrylic seating chart on a wall of greenery! Their photos are so lovely and intimate out in the beautiful prairie field in Liberty Hill next to Georgetown, after their exceptionally sweet chapel ceremony in the historic town! We love you, County Chic Brides!

Historic Barr Mansion for a Modern Texas Bride
 

What an absolute dream Barr Mansion is for our Modern Texas Hill Country Brides! We love to see how our brides and the teams come together each time to create something new!

A Colorful April Wedding for a chic bride at Woodbine Mansion
 

When you think of a micro wedding in southern colorful charm, think of April weddings at Woodbine Mansion! The outstanding floral designs bring out the lush greenery that surrounds the beautiful historic landmark. This mansion as a venue has it all from a stunning interior stairwell for brides to flow down, to whimsical wooden verandas that hold enchanting green vines to marry your true love under. We loved creating these formal yet chic invitation suites accenting the beautiful venue in a custom watercolor painting! The formal yet beautifully suave, minimalistic font of the invitations really stands perfectly with the beauty of the celebration’s decor through and through! Swoon at this whole wedding event! From ceremony to reception and to the grand finale, we couldn’t have dreamed of more of a trendsetter in the classic way that was Kaie and Ethan. Thank you for letting us make your stationery dreams come true!

Get to know Emily

Tell us a little bit about yourself!

Hello readers! Growing up in central New York (go Bills!), my house was always filled with art and the sounds of Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac. Naturally, I studied graphic design in college, following in the footsteps of my artistic brother and dad, and discovered my love of typography.

In April 2021, I moved to south Georgia with my husband and 2 cats, Stewie and April (and recently added a rambunctious pup to the mix). When I'm not designing beautiful wedding stationery, I am either reading, doing yoga, or planning my next trip/adventure.

How did you get started with invitation design?

In college, I knew I loved the world of typography. But it wasn't until after I graduated that my mom sent me an Indeed job listing (as moms do) for a stationery design position. Long story short, I didn't get that job, but it sparked a passion in me and I knew I wanted to continue down that road. Soon after, I found Pink Champagne Designs in 2019 and never looked back! Everything I have learned about wedding stationery, I have learned here through working with this fabulous team and our amazing clients.

What design vibe are you loving right now?

Lately I've been loving bright colors paired with watercolor elements, especially dainty watercolor wildflowers. Elegant garden party vibes with pops of fun color!!

What do you like to know about a client's invitation vision before you start a design?

Two of the most important pieces of information that help me with starting a design are 1) a solid color palette and 2) a general description of your wedding style. Personally, I think 2-4 colors is just the right amount. Enough color to add some visual interest and tie in with your unique wedding palette, without being overwhelmed with too many colors. For general style descriptions, there are a lot of terms that can help me when mapping out the overall vibe of the stationery. Some examples are: art deco, garden party, sleek and modern, black tie traditional, bohemian, minimalistic, etc.

If you were designing your own invitations right now, what's one thing that you would include?

This is such a difficult question to answer... I love them all! If I had to choose one thing to include while designing my own invitations, I would include a venue illustration, either watercolor or sketched. No matter the wedding style, a venue illustration always looks amazing in any design, and it is such a special and unique touch that you can cherish forever.


XO, Emily B.
