Fig2design stationeryWhen it comes to Save the Dates – we know it is all about first impressions!

We love getting them in the mail and we love designing them as planners with our couples.  However – a lot of people get so stuck on just buying online and not thinking through this very crucial statement piece of stationery before pressing click on the dotted line!

Be sure you are ready to commit before you buy save the dates – as it should reflect what your wedding day and *hopefully* your color scheme will be all about.  It is a huge commitment.  So before you go hunting online for the best designer,  try a couple of local designers that are well-known around the country and deserve your attention!

Above are a few of the samples and designs by Fig 2 Design.  She can do a custom suite for you and she is right here.  She just came out with a new line of stationery and you definitely should click as fast as you can to her website!  Click here or click on the image above!

Laura Hopper CalligraphyThen…if you have not heard…Laura Hooper is now local.  She is literally a world-famous designer!  Her calligraphy and hand-drawn maps and products are wildly popular.  And now she is right here in DC!!!  If you are looking for a wonderfully customized and hand-drawn stationery suite of loveliness – be sure to click here or on the image above!

Keeping it local is what we are all about!  Green wedding design is all about this!  Commissioning these two wonderful local small businesswomen is not only great for the environment (less shipping and handling)…it keeps your valuable wedding budget dollars in the DC area to strengthen our own economy.  That is truly what being green is all about.

Have a wonderful weekend of wedding planning and
