Vendor Love: The First Snow

Happy Monday my loves. Today I want to talk about a vendor whose work I absolutely love. She's called Darah and she is the owner/designer behind The First Snow. She hand-makes wedding stationery from: cake toppers, invites, thank you cards, table numbers, welcome signs, and a whole lot more. She even has everyday home or office decor posters / signs.

I first came across Darah's work on Pinterest (thank God for Pinterest) and I immediately fell in love with her work. The artwork I first spotted on Pinterest and had to have was her Here Comes The Bride sign (pic of it below) and contacted her right away. I needed the sign for my 2013 collection shoot and I bought if from her Etsy shop. She was kind enough to ship it to me with enough time to spare as I had contacted her with a rush order request. The sign is hanging in my office right now. She's super sweet and absolutely talented. You must check out her work and like her Facebook page.

So my darlings, this is the work of Darah from The First Snow. All the images are sourced from Darah's Etsy shop.

Place Cards

I don't know if you've seen any lately but I'm here to tell you that place cards and place settings are not boring anymore. Oh no they aren't hunny! They don't just designate a sitting spot for your guests, they're great accessories to your wedding theme and decor. The color, shape, texture, design, and originality of the place settings you choose to go with are a great way to personalize your wedding. 

Place card settings don't have to cost an arm and a leg. If you're artsy or have an artistic friend or sibling, you can get craft paper from your local art store and create your own designs. Something doesn't have to cost a lot to look good. As always, I encourage you to be creative and to do what makes you happy. Take a look at some of these place cards and place settings for your inspiration:
