Aww...I wish I could enter, but my wedding is in a few weeks. Those are gorgeous!
Rook would be perfect :) Our wedding is September 18, 2010 and our colors are eggplant and chartrueuse.
LOVE Kegan. Seriously, so gorgeous. Our wedding is July 24, 2010 and our colors are black and white (with limited accents of very bright color like orange, yellow, fuschia, red, and purple).
The rook, it's so classic and chic! My wedding date is May 29, 2011, and our colors are cobalt blue, leaf green, and tangerine. :)
Love Kegan it's a bit irreverent and I'm a fan of that. My wedding colors are fuschia and grass green and I'm getting married August 28, 2010
This is my dream wedding favour. As a child we went to one of the big London department stores every Christmas and were allowed to choose one new tree decoration to adorn the Christmas tree. I still remember the excitement of all of the decorations and the difficulty choosing which was 'the one' to be added to the tree that year. Since then I've had a love of baubles and decorations
We're planning a garden party wedding in July this year. Our theme is English garden party and these decorations would look so pretty hung from the trees for guests to take away as a reminder of the day.
I love the Rook font - it is traditional without being too grand, perfect for our relaxed DIY celebration. We don't have a specific colour for the wedding - our flowers are coming from an amazing local lady who grows scented garden flowers and so our colour palette is her garden in July - beautiful creams, blues, pinks, lavender and green.
I love the Grace! We are having a modern wedding, but Grace is the font I always dreamed of for my invitations... some day on some invites!
Our wedding colors are navy blue, moss green and cream.
Our wedding is October 9, 2010 in Los Angeles.
My favorite is the Rook style--and my colors are black and white, with fall accent colors!
Definitely kegan :-) I love these! They are so cute! Our main color is blush pink and the wedding is July 10, 2010.
I LOVE the Grace. This is beautiful and has that vintage feel that we are trying to work into our wedding. We are going for vintage, classic, elegant. Our colors are very light blush, cream, and light gray. Our wedding is on August 28th 2010, and Monday March 8th is my birthday!!!
I love Rook! Our wedding is August 21 this year. Our colors are navy, yellow and silver.
I love the Rook Font...My wedding is on July 31st 2010....Colors: Champagne and Chocolate
These ornaments are beautiful! My wedding is in May, but I would love to be able to send these to our guests along with my thank you notes (we will be moving across the country in June, so thank you notes will most likely have to be put on hold until July). I think that would be a really lovely surprise for them. My wedding colors are lavender, moss green, cream and aqua.
i love the grace font! our wedding is may 29, 2011. colors are royal blue & apple green.
oops.. I forgot to say, I really love the kegan font! although they are all gorgeous~
The Kegan font is my favorite - it's elegant in a playful way! Our wedding date is December 18, 2010 so this plays in perfectly with the holiday season. We were actually planning on doing ornaments as party favors, and this will add that perfect touch of personalization that we need! Our colors are all different shades of blue and purple, ranging from navy to powder blue to royal purple to lavender and all those inbetween :)
I love Grace...such a gorgeous font! Our wedding is May 1, 2010 and our color palette is black, ivory and Tiffany blue
It was a tough call between Grace and Kegan but I think I'll go with Kegan. My wedding is on October 9th ,2010...10-09-10 because we know we're not perfect! and the colors are Purple, Yellow, and Gray. Great post, thanks for doing this!
I'm l♥ving the Kegan font! Our wedding is November 13, 2010. Colors: white with pops of black and a bit of champagne sprinkled in.
I never knew how much I loved calligraphy until I started planning a wedding! I adore Grace! So elegant. My wedding colors are white, champagne, and pale aqua for September 18, 2010.
What a really fun idea!! The Rook font would be amazing for our May 29, 2011 wedding. Colors are based off my groom's kilt - lemon yellow and navy!
What gorgeous work! We're getting married Sept 4, 2010 and our colours are white, grey and pink (I think, still working on it!). I love Kegan - casual but classic.
Grace!! I am obsessed with caliigraphy and am trying to incorporate it as much as possible into our February 19, 2011 wedding! The colors for our military wedding are navy blue and silver :)
WOW! What an amazing giveaway! All the fonts are so beautiful, but I absolutely love the Grace style of lettering. It is so elegant and classic. We are having a wedding September 10th of next year; with a purple and peacock teal blue color scheme. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway opportunity!
These are fantastic! Definitely Kegan! Our wedding colors are ivory, blush pink, and silver/gray. Our wedding is June 4th, 2011!
(PS: I love your site. I'm obsessed!)
Precious! They would be wonderful additions to our big day! Our wedding is 10.10.10! and our colors are fuschia and orange and I love love Rook!
Gorgeous! I love the Kegan font! Our wedding is July 17th, 2010 and our colors are all shades of purple with a touch of white.
Thank you SMP for the lovely post and for all the support! Your comments are wonderful and I cannot wait to see who wins! (But if you do not win - remember there is a discount out there for you also!)
Nicole
Lovely giveaway! It was a tough decision, but I really love the Grace font because it is pure elegance. This is for my brother's wedding - date and colors TBD but I'm the planner!
Love Rook! I wish I had a talent like this. Our wedding is October 9, 2010, and our colors are champagne, black and wine.
Of those 3 choices I like Rook the best -- it has such a nice simplicity and elegance at the same time. Of all the styles though, my favorite is Dexter.
Our wedding is October 2, 2010 and our main color palette includes various shades of blue from Navy to Glaucous to Columbia with accents of green and white (mainly from the flowers)
This is so neat! Our wedding is September 12, 2010, and I've yet to come up with a favor that I like as much as this. Our colors are lemon, gray, and peacock, and I'm a big fan of Kegan. Thank you!
I LOVE THIS IDEA! It would work perfect with our September 11, 2010 wedding. Incorporating a lot of peacock feathers with the bridesmaids wearing fern green with gold accessories. I want to include many shades of the peacock feather on our special day. My favorite style has to be GRACE!!
These ornaments would be an absolutely gorgeous favor for my winter wedding on December 11, 2010. My fiance and I really want the Christmas spirit to shine through on our wedding day and these beautiful favors would go a long way toward that goal! Our color palette is largely black and white, with silver accents and a muted purple shade called violet stone, so the ink colors available are just perfect. The Grace font is my favorite of the three choices--so elegant! Thanks for offering this great giveaway and promotion. (And by the way--I'm a lefty too!)
ROOK IS ADORABLE! Our wedding is not happening until November 5, 2011, so plenty of time!! We're waiting until after I'm finished with law school and after he gets stationed on land (he's in the Navy). Our colors are navy, lavender, and fuchsia. These are adorable!!
These are so beautiful! Immediately kegan reached out to me - I loved the way that font looked on the escort cards example of the name Catherine (same as yours truly!). Our wedding is July 10, 2010. Our wedding colors are turquoise and royal purple. Thanks for the opportunity!
I love Rook, wow!!! My wedding is on 9.19.10 in Callistoga, Napa area of CA at the beautiful Hans Fahden Winery. Rustic and intimate with a pond of duckies and teahouse! Our colors are lavender, coral and a faint pink...with accents of light slate blue!
I love the Rook font... so sassy. The wedding is September 4, 2010. The colors: shades of green (primarily emerald, which I will be wearing, and leaf), a hint of aqua, and an ocassional splash of bright yellow and white. By the way - the calligraphy is so beautiful - what a talent!
I love kegan, they are all gorgeous, but kegan looks amazing. Our wedding is not until May 14, 2011 and our colours (I think) are black or grey & white with either yellow or a soft pink. Amazing!
i'm in love with this! we have wanted to do ornaments for our thanksgiving wedding. how perfect! i love the rook style and our wedding colors are black, fuchsia/raspberry, and ballet pink.
Oh my goodness! How are we supposed to choose? I love them all...but especially Grace.
I am having a Winter Wonderland wedding, so how perfect would these favors be?! We are mixing deep, sapphire blues and rich, royal purples with hints silver accents.
Thanks for the contest!
These are beautiful - what a great idea!!! My favorite style is Grace, and my wedding is October 1, 2010. The wedding colors are pale pink and peach. Thanks!!!
What lovely calligraphy! I love the idea of ornaments as favors. My favorite is kegan. Our wedding date is June 5th of this year and colors are soft pinks and blues.
Rook is by far the best font - it combines the grace of traditional calligraphy with a sense of whimsy which works perfectly with the general feel of our wedding. We are getting married on August 14, 2010, and our colors are black, blush pink, and gold.
Grace! I love Grace. The additional swirls above the text makes it both romantic, whimsical and fabulous! Our wedding colors are a vibrant purple/violet, and silver. Our wedding is going to be held in a historic hotel is downtown Denver in October of 2010. Our invitations and save the dates mix both crisp modern fonts with a curly swirly romantic font very similar to Grace. Our theme is vintage modern and Grace definitely picks up on the vintage romantic portion that we are going for! Thanks!
So Beautiful! Our wedding will be October 9th, 2010 and its a vintage southern wedding that will take place outside in Alabama. Balloons are a theme for our engagment pictures and I would love to have these ornaments as favors for the guests and small little "balloons" that we can hand from a tree!! Kegan is my favorite and is reminiscent of the font that will be used on our invitations!!!
Grace is amazing! My wedding is December 4th and my colors are navy and pink so ornaments would be a perfect favor!
There is something so classy and timeless about calligraphy. I love the Kegan font because it takes these classical qualities of the art and mixes in a healthy dose of spunk.
We are getting married October 1, 2011 in Lake Tahoe, so we would really like to bring in the beautiful outdoor scenery to our reception, focusing on a color I can only call "Tahoe blue" and mixing this with the deep green of the surrounding pines. We are looking at using small trees as centerpieces or seedlings as favors, and the Christmas ornament would tie in perfectly with this theme.
When I think of unpacking our collection of Christmas ornaments each year - a few homemade, others gifts from family and friends, some that mark milestones or are mementos of journeys, and in general an assortment of colors, shapes and sizes - I can't think of a better metaphor for the joining of two individuals with all their different experiences, personality quirks, and unique traditions in a marriage, much the way the various ornaments come together to form a beautiful Christmas tree.
This calligraphy is absolutely beautiful. As a calligrapher by trade myself, I'm peering at the screen upside down trying to work out how you form such gorgeous letters left-handed!! A really lovely blog post and such fantastic, beautiful wedding calligraphy. I love Grace and Kegan!

What a neat giveaway! I love the "kegan" font. Our wedding is August 7. 2010 and our colors are white, ballet pink and raspberry pink! Thanks so much!
Beyond jealous of Nicole's talent - her work is gorgeous! We're getting married 10/23/2010 in a beautiful old resort in New Hampshire. I love the Grace font (let's be honest, I love them all!), but think Grace is wonderfully charming, elegant and grand. Much of our inspiration for our big day has been in the mountains, the resort itself, and vintage maps of New Hampshire. Our colors are various greens, ivory, khaki, gold, and black. Still working on the 'pop of color' but I'm thinking a berry/plum/wine color of sorts. Crossing my fingers!
P.S. I <3 SMP!
What a great idea for a wedding favor! I can't think of a more special way to commemorate the biggest day in one's life and share that day with others. Christmas is a very special time of year for us and we always make it a point to get together with as much family as possible which isn't always easy since we are all over the globe from the U.S. to Europe, to South America and all the way down to New Zealand!
Taking out the ornaments from year to year and reminiscing about the memories that each represents is something we always look forward to and I can't wait to have an ornament to look back on and remember our wedding day with!
Our wedding day is November 6th, 2010 and our colors are graphite gray, plum, and leaf green
Thank You So Much!!!,
Johanna
The Rook font would be so lovely for our May 29, 2010 wedding. Colors are light blue and brown. Thanks!
ROOK :)
September 25, 2010
Black, White and Orange!
Thanks!
Grace!!!
Grace is also my Maid of honor's name! How fitting.
The color are dark red, silver, and black. Wedding is Jan 16, 2011. Love it, and what a beautiful very original gift!!!
Love Kegan!
October 9, 2010
Purple or white
What a wonderful giveaway! My fiance and I's very first date was decorating my Christmas tree. My tree has a rust and copper theme to it along with leaves and pine cones. Those same colors are the theme of our wedding that will be in October 2010. The ornaments would be a perfect favor for our guests since they would hold such meaning for the two of us! So... copper or rust with the beautiful Grace font would be wonderful. Thank you!!!!
Our wedding is September 25th and I'm still deciding colors, haha! I am so indecisive! I'm thinking right now of teal and green, and black and white. I can't decide if I like rook or kegan! (See - indecisive!)
I always wanted to give ornaments as giveaways for my wedding! Our wedding date is January 8, 2011 and we're having the whole winter wonderland theme: white tree centerpieces, white flowers, white candles. These ornaments would be perfect to hang from the tree centerpieces! Our colors are dark purple, ice blue, and white. Grace would be very elegant, modern, and classy.
Such a fun giveway! I love the look of calligraphy on everything! The Kegan style is my favorite. We're getting married spring 2011 on a beach in Florida. Our colors are very neutral, sky blue, beige, and white.
LOVE Grace! Our wedding is May 21, 2011 and our colors are robin's egg blue and spring green with accents of pink and ivory. Such a great giveaway!
Oh my goodness!!! I was already thinking I wanted ornaments as my favor! I am having a December 18th wedding so this would be beyond perfect. We are having a vintage themed holiday wedding. My colors are white, cream, chocolate and emerald green. Kegan... I love the fresh approach to a traditional artform... you are very talented.
I was so thrilled to see this giveaway, as I have spent hours searching for Christmas ornaments as favors for our holiday wedding - not an easy thing to find in March. Our wedding is December 11, 2010 in Boca Grande, Florida. The colors are navy blue, hot pink and green. Thank you for the opportunity to participate.
In all the excitement I forgot to put my favorite font. :) It is hard to pick as they are all beautiful, but I would have to go with Grace. Thanks again!
We're getting married August 14, 2010, in the backyard of a beautiful colonial home in Pennsylvania. Our colors will be faded shades of coral and peach with natural pale greens and ivory--the idea is for the colors to look a bit "dusty" and vintage-y/old. I love all three of these fonts and appreciate all the variety Nicole offers! I think Grace goes best with our wedding's setting and feel. It's just lovely. Ornaments like this with hand-crafted personalization are *exactly* the kind of thing I've been hoping to come up with for favors!!!
Oh BEAUTIFUL. My Mom has started the tradition of every special occasion or big trip we get ornaments and so we got an ornament at Yellowstone when we got engaged. It's only fitting to have them as favors :). I love the Kegan the best, modern yet pretty. Our colors are indigo and orange for a bright summer (July 24, 2010) wedding. Hope to get picked!
Thanks!!!
These are so beautiful. Our wedding is December 18th, 2010 in a gorgeous historic hotel in Downtown Austin, TX. The ballroom will have an enormous decorated tree and these would be perfect to display and easy for everyone to take one at the end of the night! Our colors are white and cream, with some black touches and lots of eclectic mercury glass pieces. I'm going for a modern winter wonderland meets Chanel rock and roll chic feel. These give off the perfect effortless, glamourous look I am striving for. I love all the fonts, but I'm partial to Rook the most.
I love the grace font... I'm probably a little biased since it's my middle name. What beautiful work she does! And such a genius idea for favors. I love it because I collect a Christmas ornament whenever I go on a trip! Our wedding is October 9, 2010. And were using fall leaf colors- reds, oranges, and yellows.
I love the Grace font, the way the M's swirl above each other, it gives it such a whimsical, elegant flare ;) Our wedding is July, 2011 (still waiting on the exact date) and we're using teal/turquoise (the color of the sample ornaments actually!) and grey/charcoal :)
This is a great favor idea! My fiance and I have been trying to come up with something unique for a while now, but we don't have the budget to do something as beautiful as this. These would be absolutely perfect! Ornaments are the perfect keepsake for our guests. Our wedding date is 4/16/2011 and our colors are navy blue and light green. We are going for a garden-themed wedding. I love the rook font the most. Thanks for offering such a great giveaway!
Kegan! Our wedding colors are deep purple and charcoal grey...we're even doing a "round" motif with flower balls, round candles, etc. so these would be adorable! Our date is November 20, 2010 :)
Such a cute idea!!!!! I love the Kegan font. Our wedding date is 4/2011. Our colors are black and lavender!!
The Grace font would be perfect for our wedding. My colors are Navy and Pink! Beautiful work!
Rook would be so fun and delightful on wedding favors. Simple and elegant :) Our wedding is September 5th, 2010 and our colors are mustard yellow and gray. I wish I could write like she can!
Rook is the font we like best. Our wedding date is 10.02.2010
We are getting married in the fall in Michigan at a wine bar with 75 guests. It is mostly family (because mine is huge!), and a few close friends. Our colors are soft shades of pink, blue, yellow and green accented with metallic gold.
What a perfect favor! My fiance's family collects ornaments- he and his siblings have been doing this since they were very young.
I love the font "Grace" because I think it would be a lovely touch to my New Year's Day wedding. Our colors are black and white. It would be really neat to take advantage of our neat wedding date. Using 1.1.11 on the ornaments would be really fun!!
Nicole's work is beautiful. Calligraphy is such a nice, elegant touch. My wedding is June 12, 2010 in Vermont. We're expecting about 80 guests. Our colors are generally ivory, champagne, and sage with splashes of pink. We haven't worked it out exactly.
I've been trying to find just the right favor for our guest. I want it to be practical and/or symbolic and not just a throw away item. These ornaments are a wonderful idea- one that our friends and family would truly cherish. Thank you!
I love the Grace - so elegant! My colors are burgandy, gold and ivory for my October 10 wedding (10-10-10!) - just in time for Christmas!
What a fabulous giveaway and the perfect piece of flair to add to our big day! I absolutely adore Kegan and how organic and chic the lettering is. We are having a lush and romantic fall wedding in the mountains of North Carolina. Beneath the rich and bold fall landscape, surrounded deep purples and oranges, garnished with greens and wooden elements - our beautiful blend of fall colors for our October 2nd, 2010 wedding day!
What a fantastic favor idea! I love the rook font. Our main color is cobalt blue accented by red, pink and orange. Cobalt blue ornaments with silver font would be perfect and we're having 70 guests on October 29th, 2010. Beautiful work!
Kegan...so gorgeous!! Our wedding is November 27th, 2010. Ornaments would be perfect favors.. as Christmas will be right around the corner! Our colors are white and ivory with pops of silver - expecting 50 guests.
Rook is perfect for our wedding! 09-18-10- our colors are brown, burgundy and sage (inspired by fall foliage). What a great idea for a favor!
How generous! My wedding date is 9-25-10 and my colors are colbalt blue and silver. Look the Rook font!
Love Love Love Rook. Our wedding date is 10/10/10 and colors are clover, brown, and hints of wine.
I love the rook font; it is so beautiful and creative with a touch of elegance! Our wedding is 12/11/10 and our colors are cardinal and gray with silver accents. Thanks for the offer!
I love, love, love the Kegan font! We are still in process of planning our date, but it will definitely be post- 6/2010! Our colors will be rich reds, pinks, oranges, and purples.... he is asian and we will be including the vibrant colors of Asia! Thanks!!
What a wonderful offer. LOVE it! I am getting married on July 31st, 2010 and my colors are black, white and colors of the sunset - vibrant jewel tones. I really like the Kegan font!
I love grace. Our colors are navy blue and gold and the wedding is on 10.17.10. These ornaments are a perfect give away right before Christmas!
Rook is my favorite font! :) We are getting married on 03.12.2011 and our wedding colors will be inspired by my favorite place - the Bellagio Conservatory!
What an absolutely magical favour to give! Beautiful calligraphy just makes me weak at the knees, not to mention the thought of having these at our wedding! Kegan jumps out to me as having such a classic yet vintage feel to it, exactly the sort of feel we're going for. We are getting married 11th December, RIGHT before Christmas so what a wonderful gift for our guests that would be! Our colours are navy blue and shades of ivory/champagne/gold and yellow. Thank you for the generous gift Nicole!
I love, love, love kegan. Our wedding colors are charcoal gray, light metallic blue, and light yellow. Our wedding is on Sept. 04, 2011.
Love the kegan font; exactly the style I think of when talking hand calligraphy! Our wedding is 12/04/2010 - A perfect gift especially when ornaments will be a big part of the decor! Colors are earthy browns and greens, deep reds, and antiqued silver.
I truly cannot choose between Grace and Talia. They are both timeless and elegant! Our wedding date is October 22, 2010. Our colors are white and charcoal gray with hints of blush pink. Love the idea of giving such a unique favor!
First of all, Nicole, you have amazing work- I truly admire the craftsman ship, and appreciate the patience and effort that goes into your work everyday. I loved all the fonts, but my most favourite one is the GRACE font. I think it's a great, and appropriate name for the font. The way the letters form the words is gorgeous.
It is in tune with our summer elegance, European charm inspired wedding that will occur in just 4 months :) Our wedding will be held on June 26, 2010.
The ornaments are gorgeous; our colours are emerald turquoise and antique gold.
Thanks! We hope that we'll be fortunate to give these ornaments away as momentos for our wedding!
Nicole's Rook style is gorgeous! Our wedding will be 05.21.11 and our colors are apple red with hints of light gray. We have a "dots" theme going too, so the round ornaments would even fit perfectly with the atmosphere.
Beautiful art work! I love Grace, and our colors are ivory, lavendar, and light green!
Kegan is beautiful! Our wedding is August 7, 2010 on the lawn at a historic lodge a little "off the beaten path." Our colors are sapphire blue and ivory with bronze accents. We have a DIY garden party theme going, and the Kegan calligraphy would work in perfectly as special gifts for our special guests! Our families have grown close through the wedding planning process, and these favors would be such a great way to keep a memory of the day! I can see already see them hanging in the windows and on the Christmas trees of our Grandparents, Aunts & Uncles, Cousins and siblings.
My beautiful sister in law and brother are getting married on Sept. 18/2010. Their colors are all fall orientated - Burnt Orange/Chocolate Brown/Red & Burnished Gold accents. They are an amazing whimsical couple, and Kegan suits their personalities perfectly and wedding style!
The ornaments are wonderful, I can hardly believe that she is left handed and does all that calligraphy.
These are beautiful! I love the Grace font! It is so elegant and lovely, while still being understated and classic - perfect for what I am HOPING our wedding will be like! I am planning my wedding in North Carolina for July 31, 2010. My colors are predominantly, black, white, and green, with touches of blush/light pink and a few gold accents. These ornaments would be a huge blessing to me and to our wedding guests! I would probably use them as gifts for the many people who have helped with so much of the wedding process, and for those who have touched and influenced my life and my fiance's life as role models, mentors, and dear friends over the years.
Hi. I only founded this website a few days ago and I think it is an inexhaustible mine of ideas. I've read about the fantastic giveaway offered by Nicole and I'm really enthusiastic. Nicole is a very good artist . BRAVA Nicole. I'm an Italian girl and I would really like to surprise my guests with this nice gift from USA. I am getting married on September 8, 2010 (in Italy we write this date 08.09.10), the colour of my wedding day will be old pink, the font I prefer is ROOK because ii is classic but simple.
I keep my fingers crossed.
This is so neat! I LOVE calligraphy...in fact, I never use cursive; I print everything because I like the look so much better. I just wish I was good at calligraphy!
My favorite font is Kegan...it ties perfectly in with our Art Deco/Old Hollywood theme! We are getting married on October 23rd, 2010 and our colors are gold and ivory with black accents. Thanks!
This is great! Our wedding reception is Nov 27, 2010 and the colors are cranberry red and dusty gold. I like the Grace font!
Nicole's calligraphy is amazing! I'm left-handed and everything always ends up smearing whenever I write.
I absolutely adore the Grace font - I particularly like the way it seems to loop together, but you can still distinctly know what the word is from a glance. Jason and my wedding is on 7/17/10 and our colors are eggplant and hunter green.
Thanks for the amazing giveaway :-)
So does this mean June 2010 weddings are included or excluded? June 12, 2010. I only have 50 guests though, so I don't think I'd need 75!
My colours are jewel tones - purple and a vibrant turquoise. I do believe the Kegan would work best for my ceremony. I would hang them from the tree branches for my outdoor ceremony and then have the guests take them home.
Love the Kegan!!!!! Our wedding is June 19th, 2010 and our colors are Robin's Egg Blue, yellow, and light grey, with a tinge of orange. I hope I win! Her work is gorgeous!!!
I love Grace, it's exactly what I want my calligraphy for the outer envelopes of my invitation suite to look like. It's romantic, classy, a classic. My wedding colours are burgundy & gold. I'm getting married October 10th, 2010. I will be considering Nicole for my calligraphy!
Rook would be awesome :) I'm getting married in jan 2011 so there's plenty of time to get the calligraphy done! My wedding colors are purple and gold. xx
Love rook . Wedding colors are Orange and Green . They wedding is June 2010 :)
It's got to be Kegan. Simply beautiful! Our wedding is in July 2010, and our wedding colours are warm and sunny oranges and yellows. :-)
I love ROOK! its just such a gorgeous flirty style! Our wedding is 21 august 2010 Australia. our Colours are Ivory, blush pinks and winter plums, with black accents through out. a beautiful winter vineyard wedding!! x
Kegan would work so well for us! It captures the modern-vintage look we're going for! Our wedding is August 21, 2010 and our colors are gray and deep red. Thanks!
Beautiful calligraphy! Rook would work perfectly for our wedding!!! Our wedding is November 6 and our colors are mocha, dark orange, and champagne. Thank you for this beautiful giveaway.
I love the kegan style--it looks beautiful and natural. Our wedding is August 21 and our colors are lemon yellow and peacock.
I love them all, but Kegan is my favorite. The wedding is July 3rd and the colors are fuchsia and orange. Who doesn't need a beautiful ornament?
Kegan would be lovely for our July 17 wedding. Our colors are peacock inspired--teal, emerald, purple and black!
Rook is the font we like best. Our wedding date is 10.02.2010
We are getting married in the fall in Michigan at a wine bar with 75 guests. It is mostly family (because mine is huge!), and a few close friends. Our colors are soft shades of pink, blue, yellow and green accented with metallic gold. The space we rented at the wine bar is called the BUBBLE ROOM, because of the hand blown glass bubbles that cover the ceiling. I have been trying to think of a way we could tie bubbles into the favors, invitations, etc.
What a perfect favor! Maybe we could place them in tall vases or hang them from little trees as centerpieces? Each guest can go home with their own little bubble. Another tie-in is the fact that my fiance's family collects ornaments; he and his siblings have been doing this since they were very young.
PS- this is a re-post because I can't believe I forgot to mention the bubble theme of our wedding the first time around.
I like Rook, because it's slightly less formal than the other two, and we want our wedding to be fun and semi-formal, not blowout fancy!
5/21/2011 - Hot pink and burgundy!
I really like the Kegan! We're getting married October 2, 2010. Our colors are aqua, royal, lime and clover.
I love the Rook style. Our wedding is May 30, 2010 and our colors are merlot, chartreuse and bronze.
Kegan is my absolute favorite out of all her fonts! Our wedding is August 15, 2010, and our colors are champagne, chocolate brown, and ivory.
Bummer! I totally thought I won for a second. Sounds like the other Katie and I are having similar weddings! Congrats and good luck!
