Success! Carol Hannah Bridal Runway Show

What a wonderful whirlwind weekend!  I'm back from my trip to NYC for Carol Hannah's Bridal Runway Show and I want to share a few pics I was able to snap up while running around like a busy little bee.  The show was attended by some of the leading members of the wedding industry. Enjoy...

Me and Carol Hannah after the show!  She is such a sweet and darling lady.  Love her!

Run of Show programs ready to assemble after 5 hours of copying at Kinko's!

Run of Show programs with delicious treats brought all the way from Charleston, SC.

My sister, Meredith, joined me on the trip and lent a helping hand the entire time.  Couldn't have done it without her!

Practice run.

Let the show begin!

Me with the lovely Heather Barrie of Gathering and lovely Kristin Newman of Kristin Newman Designs.  A huge thank you to them for bringing me on board for this project!
 
Also, check out Darling Dexter for some gorgeous backstage photos of the models.

Off to NYC!

I am so thrilled to have a small part in Carol Hannah's Bridal Fashion Show this weekend in NYC!  I had the pleasure of designing the invitations and will be heading to New York this weekend to lend a helping hand at the show.  Can't wait!

Invitations are blind deboss and gold foil printed on a beautiful and thick cotton paper.

I am so excited to share this amazing wedding with you!  I had the wonderful pleasure of working with Gayle Brooker, one of the most talented wedding photographers I know, for her very own wedding.  She enlisted the help of myself, Liz Banfield Photography, Tara Guérard Soirée and Wedding Cakes by Jim Smeal to capture and create the beautiful day.  Enjoy!

I have had the wonderful pleasure of working with Gayle on a few occasions, including her wedding stationery (will post images at a later date).  Most recently, I asked her to photograph my family over the Thanksgiving holiday.  Her photography is stunning and inspiring!  Here are just a few of my favorites from the shoot...

Drum roll, please...  I finally finished Maeve's birth announcements!  Still in the processing of sending them out, but I thought I would go ahead and give you a little peek!

The Pressroom & Co. has launched!

I am just thrilled to the gills that The Pressroom & Co. has officially launched!  I will be adding designs to my collection on a regular basis and will feature them on the blog when each one launches.  All designs are letterpress printed on luxurious 100% cotton paper.  The best part... they are affordable!  Check out The Pressroom & Co..

5 months!

Our darling little, Maeve.  Oh, how quickly 5 months can fly by...  I've been so busy with client work that I still haven't sent out her birth announcements.  They are just about finished (finally!).  I will be posting images soon.  Stay tuned.

Happy New Year!

I am excited to announce that Oscar & Emma will be launching a letterpress collection with The Pressroom & Co, a site dedicated to the work of some of the industry's most talented designers.  The full launch will take place on January 15th, but you can take a peek at some of the lovely designs that will be available soon.  Check it out here!

Someday...

I have always said that as soon as our daughter, Maeve, is old enough to draw I will let her design her own stationery.  I came across this adorable post on Beast Pieces.  It is a father son collaboration and I can't wait to do this with Maeve someday...  read all about it here.

Simon Rocks!

I had so much fun designing this Bar Mitzvah Save the Date! Read more about it on the new Barrie Newman Blog.

Savannah on my mind...

This Thanksgiving holiday was spent enjoying some beautiful South Carolina weather.  Over the past 27 years I have been vacationing on Kiawah Island, near Charleston.  Not once in those 27 years have I visited Savannah, GA (a mere 2 hours away).  This was finally the year.  One store I truly enjoyed and definitely suggest to anyone who visits the area is The Paris Market & Brocante.

 

 Their holiday window displays are sure to brighten your day.  Adorable!

Sol Linero

I fell in love with Sol Linero's work the moment I saw her etsy shop.  While researching ideas for our daughter's nursery, I came across her lovely print called ABC.  There are so many alphabet posters out there to choose from, but this one stands on its own.  Sol contacted me today to let me know the screen printed version is now available to purchase.  I didn't hesitate one second to put it in my shopping cart.
