When a bride falls in love with her wedding cake, that inspiration may carry into all her other wedding details! This was true for a bride I had worked with a few months ago. From the start, this bride knew exactly what she wanted and provided me with a photo image of her wedding cake. She even gave me the CMYK colors and font type that was used on her actual wedding invitations. All these very important and specific details were incorporated into her custom table cards and escort cards. The cake detailing entailed abstract flowers, spiraling vines, and leaflets. Go figure, this wonderful, whimsical, white iced wedding cake, with vibrant orange floral detailing, would win her heart!
With her heart "sold", she desired to have her stationery details for the reception to reflect this exact look and "feel". From that one photo, I digitally re-created a close-to-perfect replication of her wedding cake graphics, which was used to create her custom table cards and escort cards. These items were printed on white matte cardstock with graphics in orange and text in dark purple. The spiraling floral graphics artistically entwine to the backside of the escort card as well. The table cards are tented and layered with orange matte cardstock. The vertical, upright form of the escort card is exemplified, as they were elegantly displayed in a formal linear setup making for a very bold statement and great tablescape.
Along with the tented table numbers at each table, two separate tent cards were made for other side tables at her reception. These cards were titled "Guest Book" and "Cards". I loved her modern take to the guest book, which was a large, white, ceramic plate, entirely signed by all her guests. This piece is both decorative and functional I believe! I also loved her modern take to the card box, which was a whimsical and elegant bird cage!
