work wednesday: joshua's bar mitzvah.
















a few years ago, we created a dance-themed bat mitzvah package for josh's sister, sydney. now it was josh's turn to celebrate with his sports-themed bar mitzvah.

the style of his invitation was inspired by his favorite sport, soccer and his favorite team, fc barcelona. the color palette consisted of his two favorite colors, blue and green. we designed a custom team crest for his monogram. the front of his invitation was designed to look like a professional soccer jersey. to stay "green," his tech-savvy mother decided to create a website for guests to rsvp and gather more info. all invites were mailed to guests in grass green envelopes and finished with a custom photo stamp.

in addition to the invitation, we designed the elongated tri-fold ceremony program and turned the monogram into an embroidered patch for the take home/favor items for the kids. josh's mom had them sewn onto mesh basketball shorts and cotton shorts for the girls. they turned out super cute!

happy hearts.


this is a special edition of happy things. three years ago we donated the design for the very first tom hartman memorial golf tournament. tom hartman passed away suddenly in 2008 due to a heart condition at the young age of 46. he was a beloved husband and father of three. the golf tournament was created as a tribute to tom and to raise money for the thomas r. hartman trust. this is a scholarship for a william tennent high school graduating senior who lost a parent during their high school years. 

the tournament is monday, september 26th at the limekiln golf club, rain or shine. registration for the tournament is closed, however, you can still become a sponsor or possibly volunteer!

this post is dedicated to tom and his family. it is a collection of happy hearts. we hope it helps the hartman family reflect on all of their happy memories with tom and promotes heart awareness to others out there. his legacy will live on in every type of heart.

arts ballroom grand opening.


luncheon invitation.

evening invitation.

front of day + evening invitations.

some photos of the evening's event...







we were honored to be the invitation sponsor for the grand opening of the arts ballroom on wednesday. what a stunning venue! we are both wishing we could get married all over again. the space is located in the heart of center city on locust, between broad and 13th inside the arts condominium. it's grand and historical, yet very crisp and contemporary.

our invitation + food signage for the day + evening events captured steven starr events theme of art deco meets jane austen. this theme danced throughout the grand hall and ballroom beautifully with decor, food and music. our favorite part of the night was the dessert room! a large mirrored table filled the center of the room and was dripping with ornate candelabras and silver platters packed with tiny little tarts, then topped with towering bushels of baby's breath and lilac. gorgeous!

wonderful to collaborate with...

the lemon ball 2011.

on saturday, january 15th we attended the 5th annual alex's lemonade stand foundation lemon ball. for the last three years we have been the design co-chairs on the lemon ball committee. we have designed everything from the save the date, the invitation package and all event materials and signage. it was a great night in a brand new venue, the loews philadelphia hotel. with the silent auction, the raffle for the $18,000 diamond bracelet (which we sadly didn't win!), the butterfly wish fountain, the live auction, and the dance party on the bright yellow dance floor at the end of the evening...it was a huge success for such a great cause! thank you to all of the other chairs and sponsors for making it another great year. it couldn't have happened without you. we also would like to give a huge thank you to our design committee, allie + samantha, we cannot thank you enough! love you ladies!!
