Brand New Look by Chewing the Cud
Do you remember that commercial where the girl is trying on shoes and she ever so timidly pulls off her boots, then her socks. Then slips her very shy foot into a perfect slingback. Well, that’s exactly how we feel on SMP today. We’ve found ourselves a pretty, simple, clean, new look and although we are a little bit nervous to unveil it…we couldn’t be more proud. We feel like we’ve put on our big girl pants with a logo that will stand the test of time, a header that is as clean and easy to navigate as possible and a backdrop for the perfect pictures that our vendors send us. And it feels GREAT.
So before we get started for the day, I wanted to send a HUGE shout out to Viola at Chewing the Cud, who gave us our shiny new style. I like to brag about Viola a lot on SMP because I think she is one of those designers that just gets it. Here’s a look at her brand spanking new line of eco-chic (and totally afforadable) line of wedding invitations…
You can see more from this collection, which is all printed on recycled or tree-free paper with soy-based inks, on Viola’s gorgeous website. That she also just redesigned. And it’s GORGEOUS. So, thank you so much to Viola and to all the readers that gave us feedback to make this happen!
Oh and we have a day of pretty coming up so fasten your seat belts!

it's beautiful!
Love it Abby!!!! Beautiful job (as always) Viola!!
Love it. Chic yet still very true to the original design.
Nice new look and beautiful invitations! Well done!
Great new look!
The design is fabulous, super clean and easy to follow. Are you still going to have backstage?
Beautiful invites too ;)
I love it, very clean and simple. Good design gets out of the way, so that your content is the main focus. Nice work!!!
Yep! That is exactly what we wanted. We have SUCH pretty pictures that our vendors send us, we wanted that to be the main focus. The header, the logo, everything else just supports that.
Oh and Kaitlyn...yep, we will still have backstage though it's pretty slow going these days. We are going to give it a new look and a clearer focus in the coming months though.
I love it! Simple can be fabulous.
Yay, two of my favorites teamed up! Congrats on the updated design, looks great and job well done to Viola! Beautiful invites as well!
These are so unique and beautiful. I haven't seen invites like these anywhere. They are for the bride that wants to set trends and sassy, love em!
Love the new look. I actually didn't consciously notice today when I came for my daily read, but felt that things were cleaner. Then I hit this post and said, "ah-ha!" and went back up to look at the navigation. It's lovely. :D
BTW - PLEASE share what the fonts are for your SMP and LBB logos! I have a similar scripty font I'm using on our invites and have been hunting for a complementary super-legible secondary font. What do you use for "Style"?
That is EXACTLY what we wanted. A cleaner version of our last site. I loved the last site but needed to "grow it up" a bit with a logo that really popped and nav that encompasses ALL the content that we have. Anyway, yay!
As for fonts, you should check out this one. It is a great font for invitation design...

Stunning!
Great, looking forward to the new backstage
looks great!!!
Abby, when I logged on and noticed the new look....I was so impressed. I'm finding it all to be much more clean and easy to navigate. Well done!
Thanks for the font suggestion Abby! By the way - I love reading comments and that you actually respond!
