nautical nuptials.

a fly on the wall of our studio would tell you that i talk a lot about continual concept, or event flow and theme.

this, to me, means that the concept or theme (yes, even weddings have themes) is a tasteful thread woven delicately through the event from initial invite to final favor. EVERYTHING coordinates without necessarily being "matchy matchy". the invite, custom postage, place card, table number (and frame it sits in), menu, cocktail napkin, guest towel, goodie bag (and of course flowers, linens and other decor) all are part of a cohesive set. nothing goes unnoticed.

a beloved GMRT event, Nautical Nuptials, was recently featured in MPLS ST PAUL WEDDINGS (spring/summer 2010 issue, on newsstands now). it brilliantly shows how each piece, as described above, is a part of a whole.
