Spring Ahead: Wedding Feature

We have been so busy designing, we have been a little delayed with design updates recently; however, as promised, here is our first wedding feature for the year!!!

Looks like Absolutely Inviting is becoming more and more popular for "off island events" as this wedding was held on the beautiful island of Exuma in the Bahamas. The clients opted for a envelope fold invite and of course the colors, which were fun and bright, were representative of the season. This colorful invite used shades of pink, orange, yellow, blue, and green between the papers, graphics, and text. The stationery suite included invitations and ceremony program. Enjoy!

Corporate Bahamas!

As the Christmas was approaching, we reminded our readers that we also did stationery for corporate clients. Here are two of the pieces we customized as Christmas cards:

On the first one, we partnered with the good folk at The Workshop - Home of the Signature Brow (who by the way come highly recommended). We came up with a concept that would allow their Christmas cards to double as a coupon for their loyal clients... save paper/GO GREEN! (The coupon section has been covered on the photo with the Absolutely Inviting signature). We were given full creative freedom on this, and incorporated their company's logo in the actual design. We got quite a bit of compliments from the owners and clients alike :-)


On the second design featured, we personalized the envelope seal using the logo of our friends at Apex Management. Their logo was also prominently displayed on the inside of their card. Another happy client!

Event Tip: Place Cards

A place card in the traditional sense is a small card bearing the name of your guest; it is placed at the space that each of your guest will occupy at a table. In addition to being functional, a place card can be used to add an elegant touch and a finished look to any function from an intimate dinner to the largest wedding. At the intimate dinner, the place card can make your guest feel welcomed, and at the large wedding reception, the place card along with a seating chart can go a long way in reducing chaos. Of course, in order for organized seating to be effective, guest MUST RSVP within the time frame stated on the invitation so that there is sufficient time to produce place cards/seating charts etc., and so that the various pieces will most importantly be as accurate as possible!


There are many creative ways of using place cards:

• Traditional: The traditional table card of course suits any event; however, for more casual events think fun fonts and funky colors to lighten the feel. The cards can be flat or tented.
• Use your theme: Place card holders can be used to coordinate with your wedding theme...think leaf motifs and beach themes. Theme specific frames can also be used.
• Using everyday (and not so everyday) items: Place card holders can take the form of wine bottle corks and sea shells just to name a few.

There are tons of other ways place cards can be incorporated into your event...contact Absolutely Inviting for your event add-ons such as place cards today!!!
