Pink and Purple Wedding Inspiration

Inspired by our new purple and pink wedding invitation, I’ve put together a pink and purple wedding inspiration board! I’m not a ‘pink’ lover myself, but some of the things I came across via the interweb were stunning… Hot pink and softer purples can make for a beautiful wedding theme. It’s fun and quirky, girly and cute. All I can say is… power to the purple and pinks!

Rustic Wedding Inspiration Board

Inspired by our gorgeously vintage “Wedding Tree” wedding invitation, I’ve put together a Rustic Wedding inspiration board. A dark teal, soft yellows and vintage decor make a perfect blend for a rustic wedding. This theme is perfect for rural set weddings; if you’re venue is in a barn, or a field of tents, then you’re sure to be inspired by this wedding theme.

Movie Themed Birthday Party

It’s your child’s birthday and so their time to shine…organise a movie themed birthday party and let them be the star of the show! Use tones of reds, whites and blacks, set up a vintage popcorn stand, give each guest a name badge in the shape of a star, have a little ‘movie’ corner, where your guests can create mini movies…. there are plenty of ideas to create a cinematic event. Inspired by our gorgeous movie reel birthday party invitation, I’ve put together an inspiration board for a cinema themed birthday party!

Cool Coral Wedding Inspiration Board

Coral is just one of those colours I absolutely love. I sit patiently waiting for summer to arrive, as with it, so does the colour coral. Dresses, shoes, headbands… It blends particularily well with orange, navy blue or turquoise.

Finding inspiration in our lovely wedding invitation ‘heart madness, I’ve put together a wedding inspiration board with wedding dress ideas, wedding decor ideas and yummy wedding food ideas!

Butterfly Baptism Invitations & Thank You Cards

baby butterfly

Spring is nearly here, the trees are starting to show green, the flowers are slowly coming out, and there are more and more butterflies…Why not celebrate your baby’s Christening with  a butterfly Christening card! Just  because it’s a religious celebration, doesn’t mean you have to  include a religious symbol; so having a butterfly adorn your Christening invitations or thank you cards can be the perfect choice  for you.

A few of my favourite designs

All of our designs can be personalised with background colours, font styles and your photos – you can even add your own butterfly image if you so wish!

Vintage Theme Wedding Inspiration

Inspired by our new vintage range of wedding invitations, I’ve put together a vintage wedding inspiration board! Hues of pinks and beige, with old fashionned patterns, this new trend of everything vintage is storming the wedding industry. The great thing about this new trend: you can use hand me downs and no one will bat an eyelid!

And my favourite thing here? The beautifully crafted hand made bow tie by lavieelegante – it just adds that lovely finishing touch.
