Amy and Jack from Allentown, Pennsylvania, got married last month. Each detail of their wedding echo the stunning damask design with accents of pink and apple green! Amy was gracious to forward me her photographer, Patricia Lyons Photography, which in my opinion had such a great eye capturing all the details of Amy's wedding.
My Creative Wedding took part in her fabulous damask wedding programs:

VERA WANG DRESS FOR SALE


I think that I'm finally ready to part with my Vera Wang wedding dress. Mind you, this isn't the one that wore at my wedding! This is the first dress that I bought that I never wore! Purchased it from a gal in New York that wore it once. I never ended up wearing it because we originally were suppose to marry in a church and I fell in love with the bustle. I still wore a Vera Wang for my wedding but I don't think I'll ever sell that one! :) I purchased this Vera Wang wedding dress for $1800 and I'm willing to let it go for $1200 or best offer. The original price was $5500!

Size 6 (which really fits 0-2)
Good for 5'7 height or 5'3 and 4" heels (which was my plan...hee hee)
33-34 bust
color: light ivory
Needs to be cleaned and pressed

Only serious buyers...please email My Creative Wedding at info@mycreativewedding.com

If you have a couture dress that you'd like to sell, email me at info@mycreativewedding.com

The "White" Wedding Invitation - Revised.

My Creative Wedding gets a lot of people who comment on how bad invitations used to look. "Just white invitations with no color and plain. Just blah." White invitations aren't so bad. There are so many different shades and textures of white. It can look just as fabulous as green and pink! Here's one white wedding invitation for Johanah. White metallic paper mixed with a variety of textures. From white lace to white canvas paper! Thermography printed with not black ink, but dark mahogany to match her black (really really dark red) roses.

Invitation Boxes!

A few weeks ago we delivered wedding invitations that were absolutely gorgeous!
A square pocket fold invitation tied by a double faced satin ribbon and presented with a label. The wedding invitation opens up to reveal the invitation backed by the same stock of the box and three inserts which included an RSVP postcard. The boxes were handmade from 160lb double thick stock mahogany cover.
And finished off by custom printed address label bands that were in the same green metallic stock of the pocket folds. Couldn't let this one go without taking a few pictures!



Are you interested in purchasing boxes in any size??? Please email PAPER CREW in Long Beach, California at holler@papercrew.com

We LOVE the Great Bridal Expo!


My Creative Wedding has a soft spot for the Great Bridal Expo. We have been vendors at these wedding conventions since 2005! Our last show at the Anaheim Convention Center and the Los Angeles Westin Bonaventure was a huge success! We met so many enthusiastic bride and grooms that can't wait to get there creative juices flowing and start the invitation process with us! We've got so many requests to put up some pictures of our boards that we showcase at the shows. So here you go:


And the one that caught everyone's eye was our new Paris Invitation! (This one is for you Amihan!) This sample was made to display a destination wedding look...that will be taking place right at home. Great for a themed wedding!


Matching triangle tent placecards adds flavor and details!

We're finishing up on all the fall brides for 2008! Can't wait to blog all the others!

Destination Wedding Invitations

The best part of the summer wedding season by far is doing destination wedding invitations! Last summer my maid of honor got married in Cancun, Mexico. It's beautiful there! Crystal clear water, white powder sand, blue skies...the all inclusive resort and all you can eat and drink isn't too shabby either! It was a great time for all our close friends. For her wedding My Creative Wedding made a destination wedding invitation book! Her invitation came complete with a map of the island and an itinerary.
She had so much information that she had to pass on to her guests: accommodations, itinerary, wedding info., excursions, etc. We managed to compile it all in a RSVP postcard!

When the guests replied with a check next to "will attend", we sent out matching luggage tags so that all the guests from the bride and grooms side will know that they are there for them!
My Creative Wedding can use themes from the destination. Take this example:
We used the design from the Outrigger on the Hotel Accommodations card.

And I've got a new one getting married in Brazil this year. Her family is from Brazil, her fiancé's family is from Chili. They met in Florida. Three languages, one RSVP card, one email address! Brilliant!

Custom Program Fans


Summer weddings are coming!!! And the biggest item on the list this year is program fans. One bride from Napa, California wanted to copy one that she saw in a bridal magazine and have it match her theme. What a delight these program fans will be for the guests to use in the hot Cancun sun.
And some others...
This one has 3 layers of paper on a ribbon wrapped stick. The nice thing about this is that it really is a great fan! It's sturdy and isn't for the one time use.

There aren't too many people that do wedding program fans, but what you will see are the basic Popsicle stick with different paper shapes on them. Or even the traditional Asian fan style with a brad on the bottom let the paper fan out.
My Creative Wedding does custom Asian paper fans with your logo or monogram or design on it.


Depending on the design these fans start at $1.00 each. Order in quantities of 24. This is a great way to add some design details for a fraction of the cost. It also adds a little keepsake for your guests. Fans come in white. Designs are endless and ink can come in any color. Order your custom wedding fan today!
