Just a quick post about Shanea and DeWayne’s intimate Vegas destination wedding last October. Some of their favorite details were the bright colors of the bride’s bouquet (by Blossoms of Las Vegas) and the colorful candy buffet. I never knew chocolate brown and shocking pink could look so good together. I will admit I had my doubts about it, but I was wrong. Hot pink and hotter orange are a fun twist for fall, and definitely apropos for Vegas.

Another reason I like this project so much is that Shanea was really smart about maximizing her budget: This is a 1-color design, as each item is printed in only 1 color of ink — it just so happens that 2 of the items were printed in chocolate ink, and the other 2 were printed in gold ink. We only charge a small fee to do an ink change half-way through the run. The shocking pink vellum sleeve is also a really fun, modern, and inexpensive way to protect everything within one envelope, and add another shot of contrasting color for more excitement. And of course, if hot pink is not your cup of tea, there are lots of colors to choose from!

Shanea and DeWayne — thanks so much for sharing these photos with us! It was a pleasure to work with you two.
