Oh Chicago! We just can’t get enough of that beautiful skyline especially when it is paired with a deco motif and wallpaper. It takes the skyline to new heights!

Southern Comfort

Southern Comfort

We love Chicago (obvi), but it is always fun to design an invitation for a wedding outside the Windy City… especially when the wedding is in Louisiana! This design was the perfect mix of romance and charm for our Southern Belle Bride.

Lovely Strokes for Lovely Folks

Lovely Strokes for Lovely Folks 2 Lovely Strokes for Lovely Folks 3 Lovely Strokes for Lovely Folks 4

We thought the invitations were a fun project… until we got started on the ceremony programs!

These booklet style programs coordinated with the invitations by using the same navy ink and font styles but the show-stopper was the watercolor artwork of the church on the program cover!  The original watercolor is now hanging in the couples home as a keepsake.

Love the look? We are hosting a trunk show with the artist (a Chicagoan and graduate of the American Academy of Art) on Thursday, July 18 from 6-8 p.m. He will be showcasing some of his work and taking orders (for weddings past and present!). If you would like to join, please email us at rsvp@magnificentmilestones.com.

“PACK YOUR BAGS, GET OUT OF TOWN… HEAD TO VEGAS AND DOUBLE DOWN”

Jackpot! Nothing sets the tone for Vegas nuptials more than a playing card inspired save the date.

And for the groomsmen? We suggest THE GENTLEMAN’S DECK: equipped with everything a modern guy needs to know!

All That Glitters

All That Glitters

It’s no secret we love letterpress… but there is one thing we love more… letterpress and foil together!

This celebatory suite combines a matte plum letterpress with a metallic gold foil. The result? Glitter. Lots of glitter.

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall…

Mirror Mirror

The wedding menu is one of the most important aspects of the big day: It should sound amazing and taste even better!

For this bride & bride, we printed the wedding menu on an oversized mirror and made it the center of attention for all guests to see. The icing on the cake? The couple now has it hanging in their home as a keepsake.

Sweet Romance

Sweet Serendipity 1 Sweet Serendipity 2

One of our favorite invitation suites… the soft shades of lavender and gray are as sweet and romantic as the couple. The damask pattern and elegant script were carried through on each piece, from save the dates to menu cards.
