Customize it!

Posted November 11th, 2008 by Deonna

A custom logo can be anything from a monogram using the wedding colors to an illustration that is meaningful to the bride & groom.

For example, one couple I worked with wanted to use an oak leaf as their logo. They were both nature lovers and believed the oak symbolized strength and growth. We incorporated this element into many aspects of the wedding:

  • An invitation including an oak leaf logo, the pages of which were stitched together and held in place with a small branch
  • Wedding favors tied with a ribbon and topped with an oak leaf cutout featuring each guest’s name
  • Centerpieces of brass lanterns placed on hand-sewn oak leaf table runners
  • Bouquets and boutonnieres utilizing oak leaves instead of traditional greenery
  • Place cards at the reception featuring oak leaves—the number of leaves on the card actually served double duty and told the servers which meal each guest had ordered (3 for beef, 2 for chicken)
  • Other wedding correspondence with the oak leaf symbol (programs, thank you notes, save the dates, etc.)

The elements all worked together to create a cohesive, custom look. Not only did the couple love putting their own “stamp” on the festivities, so did their friends and family.

Events That Impress can assist by designing and incorporating a custom theme such as this one.
