New Sample Albums – YAY!

weddingcreativo — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 00:18:52 +0000

Holy macaroni! We love our new sample albums that arrived this week. Here is a look at our new Flush Mount sample with insanely rockin’ cover! Yes, it’s leather. Yes it looks like snake skin. And yes, it even looks a little like glass or a cracked mirror and you can see your reflection in it…kind of. This is just one sample of literally hundreds of unique cover options that we have, and our bindery is always adding new materials to their already vast options of leathers, silks, canvas, metal, even glass. We love making absolutely one-of-a-kind albums for our couples and can’t wait to show this at our next meeting!

Le Birdcage

weddingcreativo — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 07:28:50 +0000

We absolutely adore the revival of the birdcage hat, which is a great modern-vintage swap for the traditional veil, plus it can qualify for your “something old”….even if it isn’t. There are tons of hand-crafted ones available on Etsy.

Congratulations Cheryl and Dan

Cheryl and Dan are a fun couple that loves to rock! The groom serenaded his bride and guests rocking out with his bandmates, and Dan even dressed up like Slash from Guns n Roses when the couple were first announced at the reception! The entire evening took place at the wonderful Carleton Hotel in Oak Park. This is one of our long-time favorite venues for smaller weddings that is great for guests want to mingle and talk with nice sitting rooms and elegant bar down the hall from the main dining room. There is also the pub outside on the corner, where we had some fun shots with the bride and groom, and where many couples like to have a little “after party” with close friends.

Congratulations Josh and Melissa

Faith and music is what united Elgin bride and groom Josh and Melissa. Their ceremony incorporated loving traditions of their religion, including a presentation of a family heirloom necklace and washing each others’ feet. Josh and Melissa are also gifted vocalists and musicians devoted to performing music of their faith, and they performed special songs during their ceremony.

Congratulations Meagan and Ignacio

Meagan and Ignacio met years ago in salsa dance class, which they continue to share as a major passion together. Seriously, they would sooooo beat everyone on those ballroom dance shows! After years of friendship and then dating they finally tied the knot on July 4th. The day was a little rainy and humid, but that didn’t seem to bother anyone too much and we ended up having a lot of fun taking pictures of the wedding party “crashing” Taste of Chicago in between the ceremony inside the field house at Promontory Point and reception at the bride’s parents lovely home.
