With back to back weddings coming up for Kevion & Antoinette and Angie & Okwui I had been working on a drink menu design for their weddings. They both have chocolate as a base color so I used the same menu and just changed the accent colors for each couple:
Kevion & Antoinette's
Angie & Okuwi's
One of the things that I do with clients is go shopping with them for supplies for their wedding and for the hand made designs they have ordered from me. The advantage of shopping clients gives me a chance to get to know them better and to make additinal suggestions on the design and decor of their wedding. Two of my favorite places to shop with my clients are AC Moore and Walmart. With only a month left until their BIG DAY, I recently went shopping with Kevion & Antoinette and we got a lot accomplished. We bought all of their jars for their Candy Bar, the centerpieces for their cocktail hour, tulling for the church and the supplies I needed to design their aisle runner, pew cones and their unity candle.
As I have been gearing up for Angie and Okwui's Puerto Rican & Nigerian Wedding, they asked me to come up with a design idea for their Table Numbers. I decided design table numbers that incorporate both of their heritages. I designed the numbers using Spanish and Yoruba one of the languages spoken in Nigeria. I can't believe how fast time is flying! There are only 2 months left until their BIG DAy!
