Carry Out Your Wedding Theme with Matching Placecards and Place card holders
August 12, 2009
The difference is in the details!
A simple way to incorporate your wedding theme and your wedding colors on your reception tables is to use matching place cards and/or place card holders.
It’s a simple decorating stategy, but it’s not always easy to find matching place cards. That’s why Joyful Heart Design Custom Invitations offers matching place cards with every wedding invitation design. We can also print your place cards for you with your guest’s names, saving you lots of time.
For example, here is a Spring Garden Theme wedding invitation in yellow, green and brown, along with the matching place cards.
These were designed as tent cards, which fold and stand on their own. However, we would be glad to create the place cards as a flat card instead, to be used with a place card holder.
For instance, check out these lovely handblown glass miniature vase place card holders. Add some flowers in your wedding colors for a very elegant effect.
Or you could put your place cards inside an elegant gold frame, like the one below.
Or place them on top these adorable mini topiary place card holders.
My favorite place to shop for unique place card holders is MyWeddingFavors.com

Fabulous Fleur-de-Lis Wedding Invitation Design
May 13, 2009
Fleur de Lis wedding themes are very popular this year and not only for New Orleans brides, Louisiana brides or those of French decent. Brides across the country are choosing the fleur-de-lis as their wedding theme for many reasons. Though the fleur-de-lis is a symbol once used by French royalty, today it is entirely appropriate for modern fashion queens (and, of course, brides.)
According to wikipedia.org, the fleur-de-lis is a stylized design of either an iris or a lily that is now used decoratively as well as symbolically, or it may be “at one and the same time, political, dynastic, artistic, emblematic, and symbolic”,[1] especially in heraldry.
Joyful Heart Design Custom Invitation Boutique now offers a colorful fleur-de-lis pattern wedding invitation design that is completely customizable with any wedding colors of your choice.
Some of our most popular color combinations used for the fleur-de-lis patterns are: chocolate brown, hot pink and light pink; tiffany blue, chocolate brown and chartruese; chocolate brown, celadon green and tangerine orange.

Yellow & Green Garden Theme Wedding Ideas
April 25, 2009
Are you planning a Garden Theme wedding for a Spring wedding or a Summer wedding? If you are considering using yellow and green as your wedding colors, here is an inspiration board with some great ideas to get you started.
There are a wide range of yellow flowers that are usually available in the Spring and Summer including yellow roses, lilies, tulips and of course yellow daffodils. If you want the brightest, vibrant yellow, go for a yellow gerbera daisy.
The yellow and green “Flowering Flourishes” pocket wedding invitation set is one of my original creations. It includes the invite, an accommodations card, a reception card and an RSVP card with a recipe card on the back. The pocket fold that is pictured is Lemonade Yellow, the mat is Spring Green and the invitations are printed on cream cardstock. The “Flowering Flourishes” design is elegant, yet contemporary with green stems and flourishes and modern style flowers in different shades of yellow with a hint of orange. Pricing and ordering info is available at www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com. Also available are matching Save the Date cards, Wishes for the Bride & Groom cards, Bookmark Favors, Favor Tags, thank you notes and any other wedding stationery you might need.

Bold, Beautiful, Yet Modest Weddings
September 9, 2008
Just because you want to use a bold color in your wedding (like bright orange, hot pink or lime green) doesn’t mean the styles of your wedding gown and bride’s maid’s dresses have to be bold. Many brides today are opting for more modest gowns—ones that don’t expose too much back, shoulder or cleavage. Choosing to wear a more modest style does not mean your wedding has to be dull, however. Don’t be afraid to use lots of color in your dresses, flowers and decorations. How about hot pink dresses with modest cap sleeves and bright orange sashes. Or rich turquoise blue tablecloths with bright yellow and green centerpieces (try placing lemons and limes in clear glass bowls, like photo above from theknot.com, or cut them in half and use them as place card holders.)
Your wedding invitations, stationery and other accessories should reflect the same style as the overall style of your wedding, be it bold and colorful, elegant or soft and sweet. Can’t find an invitation that is available in your colors that matches your style or theme? I’ve heard the same complaint from many brides. That’s why I offer contemporary wedding invitations that are FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE. Any of my designs can be created in any color combination you can think up, with as much text as will fit on the page, in any font you like. To see how we personalize and customize your wedding invitation to fit your style, visit: www.OohandAahWeddingInvites.com.
