Often when customers have an idea of what they're looking for they don't have exact specifics. 

If this is the case, I like to make their lives easier and give them a few options to look at and help us figure out exactly what they want. Here are a few examples of the samples I sent the customer before reaching the final design : 

Sesame Street Party Poster (Decoration)

Sometimes I am asked to do unique projects a customer may not know how to do or simply may not want to spent the time doing. This request was for a poster that would be used as decoration during a party to go along with the Sesame Street/Elmo theme. 

The customer also sent me a picture of the invitations so I was able to match the colors and style of the poster to the invitations and already existing plans. 

PS - Can you guess that it is for a  *2*nd birthday and the birthday girl's name starts with *H*?

Creativity for that one belongs to the parents :)

A Baking Project: The Wedding Day! (Part 3)

What an exciting day! 

I got to celebrate my brother-in-law and new (absolutely amazing) sister-in-law tie the knot and present this months-long baking project. 

How cute did this turn out!?

The bride provided all the decorative pieces

(fabric, plates, cake stands, gumball machine, pictures etc.) 

and the table all came together beautifully! 

The day before the wedding things were going so smoothly I decided to add homemade rice krispies with a simple chocolate drizzle to the menu. You can see I also had made about 120 spritz butter cookies as a little something extra. To give the rice krispies a little something special, I cut them all before drizzling on the chocolate so that the sides would have chocolate and would break off when cut. 

The wedding was beautiful and a sweet testament to the love and personalities of the bride and groom. 

I was pleased and honored to be able to help them make their day perfect and unique!

Wedding Shower Planning & Hosting

In 2012, I planned and hosted a wedding shower with a "The Story of our Love" theme.  

The shower was for two good friends who were about to graduate college and wanted to have a celebration with their friends who could not travel to attend the wedding. 

The location was on their campus, on the roof of a building, so decorations were limited. 

It was an open house ice cream social style event. 

There was even an area that was designated as a photo booth.

I designed & sent out all of the invitations, 

organized notes, well wishes & advice into a memory book for the couple, 

provided all of the food & 

designed, provided & set up all of the decorations. 

It was an honor to help out a fantastic couple and it really was an enjoyable night.

Wedding Planning & Decorating

In the fall of 2010, I received the best gift and most wonderful surprise of my life; 

my then-boyfriend proposed to me! 

As a senior in college looking forward to my very last semester, 

I was more than excited to add planning my wedding to my schedule. 

My fiance and I were on a very tight budget so most of the details of our day were done by myself with whatever materials I could get my hands on. 

Unfortunately, on our most special day, we were blessed with "good luck" and a rainy day which took away our outdoor, picnic style reception. Our day was far from ruined as we just went with the flow and moved everything to the basement of our church. It made for a shorter and cozier reception that, while wasn't quite what I envisioned, created perfect and precious memories. 

I created & mailed out all of the invitations, created all of the programs, made all of the decorations, put together all the flower arrangements for the reception, made hair pieces & jewelry for the bridal party, made the ring bearer pillow, created & set up ceremony sanctuary decorations and created & designed the set up for the reception. 

Our Invitation: back lined with patterned green & orange paper.

The photo bottle was made by my Mother in Law, Lisa Huff.

Example of hairpieces; clips & headbands made of orange & green buttons. 

Example of jewelry; 2 bracelets and 1 matching necklace (with orange & green center stones).
