Bella Figura & Smock now offering digital guest address printing!

You all know that we just love working with our friends at Bella Figura & Smock. They have such a huge range of designs between all the albums, offer incredible embellishments and amazing customization options. 

They are already some of our favorite albums to show and work through, so it is simply icing on the cake when they recently announced a brand new feature: digital guest address printing! 

We are absolutely thrilled to be able to offer this hugely helpful option to all our fab brides and grooms and party-people. You can have your guests' names and addresses printed directly on the front of your invitation envelopes and use fonts & colors to match the overall look for a totally cohesive feel. What a stress-free and convenient way to tackle addressing, right?

  

Call or email us today to make an appointment to come see the Smock and Bella Figura albums yourself and learn more about this awesome new option. 

The Finishing Touch: Envelope Calligraphy

Everyone knows that, oftentimes, the magic is in the details. For me, one of those magical details in wedding stationery is envelope calligraphy. As both the finishing touch on an invitation suite and the first peek for your guests, I just can't speak highly enough about how this seemingly small detail can take an invitation from gorgeous to stunning. Given that the addressing on an envelope is truly the first thing a guest will see, calligraphy can really set the tone for the entire suite and event. And, the personal touch of hand addressing your invitations goes far to convey care for each and every one of your cherished guest.

While many of you may think calligraphy has to be formal or stuffy, I want to remind you that, these days, there is no shortage of variety in calligraphy styles. From classic and romantic to funky and fun, there are lettering styles to suit every party and every budget.

We're happy to make sure that our brides and grooms get connected with the right calligraphers (and we work with quite a few!) early on in the process to ensure availability, smooth timing and help with all the bits and pieces (including infusing calligraphy into other elements like the invitation design and wedding-day pieces).

For your viewing pleasure, a few samples from some of our favorite lettering-pros.
