When Katie asked me to do the wedding save the dates and invitations for her Peaks Island Wedding, I was honored!  Katie was an art teacher at my alma mater, Kennebunk High, and I was thrilled to be asked by such a creative person to be a special part of their wedding day!

All of Katie's designs were totally custom. We started with a map save the date...my very first!  Then Katie came up with the idea for an invitation with a rope border nautical design and a compass rose on the  reply card.  There was a little painting of the Inn on Peaks Island on the enclosure card, and a schooner on the outer envelope.

We did a number of other pieces too! Her mother in law had me do a whimsical portrait of the couple that was later used as a groom's cake topper and a surprise for Brock!  There was a hand painted postcard for certain lucky guests for a sunset cruise the night before the wedding.

The couple had me create a watercolor painting of their church to be used on the front of a program.  The wedding reception pieces all stayed with the rugged Maine coastline theme....with a few hydrangeas thrown in to pull in Katie's wedding colors.  Of course I loved the seating chart the most!  All of the tables were named after the Casco Bay Islands.  Brock is a merchant marine, so the sea is important to them both.

I so enjoyed working with this lovely couple!  They now have 3 beautiful children and I hear from Katie from time to time for other projects!  All the best, Katie and Brock! Thank you for letting me be part of your wedding day (and life!).
