two blogs in one day, but soooooo worth it!

Yesterday I got a fantastic email from one of our most favourite couples, Jen & Chris! They first contacted us back in the summer of 2006 to help them design their wedding stationery. Not only did we design them beautiful Westcoast invitations for their March 31st, 2007 wedding at the Capilano Suspension Bridge, but we continued the designs through to their reception pieces including a table chart, place cards and very fun custom trivia cards!

Well! Coming back from the holiday season this year, Jen contacted us, again, with fantastic news! They were expecting and wanted to commission blue skies & daisies to design and print a custom canvas for their nursery. How FUN is that?!

We threw ourselves two feet in with this first ever project, and with the help of Jen & Chris, designed and printed the first ever BSD canvas! YAY!

Yesterday's email was the first of many announcements and updates: on March 11th, 2008 at 11:12am, Jack Cormack Thompson opened his eyes for the first of many times to come! Jen & Chris are doing well, happily taking on the new challenges of parenthood.

Jen and Chris. Married March 31st, 2007

Now that I have time, I'd like to start showing some of the creative wedding reception designs we've worked on in 2007. We've had quite a few weddings this year, so I'll try and show you pieces that I think stand out a bit from the others. So many couples with their own brilliant ideas and it's so amazing to be able to offer them our services to make it all happen.

To start, I've got some designs from Jen and Chris, from North Vancouver, BC. Their invitation was very simple and set the tone for their Capilano Suspension Bridge wedding, but they had some really fun ideas for their reception.

Jen and Chris received permission to use an old Capilano Suspension Bridge photograph for their wedding designs. On the back of their ceremony program they listed a bunch of historical facts about the famous bridge. And why not?! It's fun and who doesn't love facts. I personally really do.

(below: The front and back of their ceremony program.)


At the reception, every guest received a trivia card with a question on one side and multiple choice answers on the back. I'm not exactly sure how they were used at the wedding, but I bet they included it somehow in a fun and laugh supplied way. Laugh supplied...does that make sense? Well anyways. It's done.

On each table their was a table number and on the other side was a thank you note to all their guests along with a very important message. Very efficient. Robo would definitely approve.

And lastly, their table chart. I'm quite sure it looked better at their wedding than up against our office wall. But it's still pretty cool and big. 2' x 3'.
