it’s that time of week to introduce another wedding item i’ve made in the past in honor of #tbt #fbf! i love love love working on wedding items, be it paper, fabric, ribbon, crafts, anything. being able to communicate with a couple who is ready to take their first big step together makes me equally as happy for them and in turn, myself.
this couple got married on november 22nd (11/22), a date also known as “the good (married) couple’s day”, as 11-22 can be read as ii-fuu-fu (the good husband and wife). the two live in singapore for the husband’s job but held their wedding in japan. since i make fully one-of-a-kind custom order items, most of the couples i work with have a very clear image of their wedding. these two were one of them. (aside from the items i made, the bride also worked on many other items, and like many a bride and groom, they worked on it until the very day of the wedding.)
their paper items (programs, name cards, thank you stickers, and after party flyers) were inspired by an illustration on an outdoor bathroom wall in the Singapore Botanic Gardens. they had asked me to recreate this wall, which was a very large amount of work, but definitely well worth it with their ecstatic reactions. the tallest and their favorite of the trees/plants on the wall was Mr. Banana Leaf, which became their “official” wedding logo.
here is their wedding reception pamphlet!
this pamphlet includes the couple’s profiles, menus, and the seating chart
(sekijihyo as mentioned in a past post).
