word of the week: gobo
Gobo means “goes before optics,” which is a really technical definition for something that is very much like a stencil. A plate is cut with a design (your monogram, wedding logo, date) and is placed over a light. The image is projected on your dance floor or a large open space (a wall, ceiling, paved entranceway).

royally beautiful illustations
I love these fun and modern Royal Wedding souvenirs designed by The House That Lars Built — pretty enough to inspire your own wedding logo and paper goods, perhaps?

wedding logos
There’s nothing I love more than a motif that ties an event together — that’s why I love Betsywhite’s logo designs. They’re a modern take on a traditional wedding monogram (something we’re all very familiar with in the south, no?), and are offered in more than 20 different styles. In addition to the logo itself (which is delivered in a jpeg file), Betsywhite also prints personalized invitations, napkins and stickers, although brides have used logos on anything from tote bags to banners (which is fine by Betsywhite, you just have to locate the appropriate vendor to do the printing for you).
