Creative Occasions is FABULOUS
Good evening all,
I just came from my Wedding Seminar Series that I put on for local brides & grooms. It's a free series, with a different topic each month. This month was Invitations & Guest Lists - I was so inspired by our guest tonight, Lara Kyle from Creative Occasions (www.creativeoc.com), I had to sit down to write this post.
I've seen Lara's work and know her personally and she is absolutely wonderful. I already recommend her for custom invitations. However, she floored me with her presentation tonight. It was focused, thoughtful and better than either, she was THOROUGH. She started with styles and papers, talked about the different printing methods, how each are done and the associated costs and went through each and every potential paper piece (from Save the Date through escort cards, table cards and menus) and even discussed history of different traditions (tissue and double envelopes for example) and finished up with the traditional etiquette and what is being done (what rules are being broken) today. The attendees were furiously scribbling notes!
It was fabulous. Even I learned something. My assistant Jennifer, who has been married before, and properly as a southern gal, who knows everything about all the little traditions and etiquette rules learned something!
I wanted to thank Lara publicly and get the word out about her. She knows everything there is to know about the invitation aspect of the wedding. And she just happens to be extremely creative and talented as well.
I can speak about many of my preferred wedding professionals this way, and I have no doubt I will in the future, but I just had to call your attention to Creative Occasions.
Happy Planning!
