Tenille & Ingram - July 2009


After being asked by Tenille & Ingram to design their stationery suite for their impending nuptials, we hit the ground running with their design concept. Because they were inviting many out of town guests, they wanted to give them "a taste of the island". They purchased a customized logo which they incorporated from the invitations and programs to the aisle runner and gift bags! Their suite included save the date cards, invitations, programs, bookmarks, and table numbers.

The couple loved their products AND our service so much that they presented us with an amazing gift as a token of their appreciation. We were extremely humbled by this and once again we say thank you. The couple had amazing responses from their stationery set as well, and even had to convince some of their guest that they were done right here in the Bahamas. She e-mailed us to say that she was asked if she got her invitations from New York, to which she responded that they were done by an "island gyal with a dream". We love it!



This couple was ABSOLUTELY graceful.
Their wedding was ABSOLUTELY unique.
Their stationery - ABSOLUTELY INVITING!

Island gyal with a dream, I want you to remember two things. The first is that I coined that term and the second is that you were most instrumental in making my wedding a success! From the moment that you walked into my office over a year ago and started pulling out your samples it took me two seconds to find someone who got what I was looking for.

I cannot tell you how many times on a stressful day when I just thought eloping would be so much easier that I pulled out that Save the Date or "The Invitation of the Year" just to remind me why I was going through all the stress. Your work is flawless and I love so much that you are a perfectionist. It was easy to just let you do your thing and just say yes to whatever you wanted to do because I know that whatever you presented it would be in line with my dream wedding.

If I had to do a wedding report card you would definitely get an A+ for your beautiful work. You have a fan and a friend for life.

I always try to give praise where it is due and for what you did for me you deserve a church service! I wish you all the luck in the world but you won't need it cuz gyal you gat talent!

Therell & Theron - July 2009

We were approached by Therell and Theron to design their stationery suite for their wedding on July 11, 2009. They wanted a style that was simple, elegant, and compact, and as a result they selected a mini pocketfold style invitation. Their suite also consisted of a ceremony booklet, table numbers, reception programs/menus, and tags for their gift boxes. Their selected colors were gold, and orange. After meeting with the client, we decided to use elements such as metallic papers, ribbons, and rhinestones to create their ultimate stationery set.

During the design phase of the couple's monogram, we decided to include a hibiscus which the couple fell in love with and which we incorporated throughout the set. Just as this couple was meant to be, this design must have been meant to be as to our surprise the hibiscus motif was also reflected in the decor of the reception site!

Due to the overwhelming responses prior to the wedding, we opted to post the client's feedback earlier. We must mention that we are humbled by the responses received by the guests today. However, the most gratifying responses were those of the bride and groom's mother who absolutely loved the style and quality of the couple's suite; we were given rave reviews by them as well.


This couple was ABSOLUTELY stunning.

Their wedding was ABSOLUTELY beautiful.
Their stationery - ABSOLUTELY INVITING!
