If you’re a bride looking for an extensive line of stationery for your watercolor wedding, then this is the place for you! I love meeting brides right after their engagement and working on proposal cards for their bridesmaids… and then helping them with addressing their wedding invitations as the big day gets closer… and then finally, completing their day-of stationery! This job is a dream come true: getting to meet kindred spirits while pursuing my creative dreams!
Below you will discover, through real weddings and studio shots, the various products that I have available. Some are available directly through my Etsy shop while others are more custom in nature.
Bridal Party Cards
First up, bridesmaid proposal cards! I don't know about you, but when I first got engaged, asking my friends to be my bridesmaids was my top priority! I love creating these cards for brides, knowing that they are a celebration of true friendship and sisterhood. There are so many color and wording options, starting with the proposal but also including thank you cards for the wedding day. PLUS cards for parents, other family members and of course the groom on the big day! Here's a few sneak peeks at what I have to offer, but take a look at my full line of Bridal Party Cards in my Etsy shop.
Envelope Calligraphy
The first impression your guests will receive of your wedding starts with your hand addressed envelopes! Whether it's with pointed pen or with brush calligraphy, I love to addressing envelopes... creating each one as it's very own work of handlettered art!

She was very easy to work with and created prettier envelopes than I ever could have imagined! So many of our guests have commented on how beautiful they are!! We couldn’t be happier!” — Hollie K.

Now let me walk you through your wedding day, starting with a warm welcome for your guests, programs for your ceremony, and then through all the paper goods for your reception…
Welcome Signs
Welcome signs are a great way to direct your guests to your ceremony, and can then be transported to your reception location as well if needed. These usually include a saying with your names and date. Materials range from paper to acrylic to mirrors.
Ceremony Programs
These paper handouts are given as your guests enter the ceremony or placed at each seat. The include the order of the ceremony, a thank you message, the names of the wedding party and family members, as well as a place to list names for a memorial. There are many options available, see the full list via the link below.
Seating Charts
If you're having assigned seating, you'll either need a seating chart or a display of escort cards/tags (see the next section). While I love both of these methods, I have such a soft spot for seating charts! They are to the point and a creative way to welcome your guests to the reception. The basics include a list of your guests names organized by table number or alphabetically. Additionally, a creative title and the bride and groom's names and date finish the piece. Materials range from framed or mounted posters, glass, mirror, acrylic, chalkboard... really the sky is the limit!
Escort Cards
Escort cards would be used in place of a seating chart... whether you go with a tag or tent card, each piece will need the guest's name and their table number. Find the following items in my Etsy shop: banner name tags, rectangle tags, and tent cards.
Table Numbers
Your guests now know which table they are sitting at and now need to find their table. My standard table numbers include a few different wording options: tables and numbers fully written out, table and digit, or the digit alone.
There are other creative ways to name your tables as well like after your favorite cities!
While this next gallery isn’t all made with watercolor, I sure do love the look of acrylic for table numbers as well! Or even table numbers made from terracotta saucers and slices of agate!
Placecards: Tent Cards, Flat Cards, and Name Tags
Once the guest arrives at their designated table, a placecard is used to show them their actual seat. This is also a great place to show the serving staff which entrée your guest chose, if needed. Guests tend to love seeing their names written out in calligraphy and often take them home as a keepsake.
Find these items in my Etsy shop:
Placecards can also be made using natural elements like marble tiles and slices of agate!
Reception Dinner Menus
Whether you're having a buffet or a plated reception, menus add another layer of decor to your table. My menus include a variety of color schemes and fonts to match your decor. While my standard menu design is listed in my Etsy shop, customized menus can also be created like the ones below with watercolor florals.

So, so great. We just received all of our signage for the wedding in the mail yesterday. It’s flawless. Sam was very quick to respond, answer any questions, and to knock out work for me. Her work is unique and absolutely beautiful. One of my favorite wedding decisions so far! – Erin S.
