For Sophie & Daan's wedding, we had the honor of fulfilling a very special order. They were looking for one subtle element that would be incorporated into their entire wedding styling: from the invitation to the thank-you gifts. The result? A beautiful, warm atmosphere where everything perfectly matched.
In this blog, we'll take you through this project and show you how you can create a complete unifying theme for an event with a single style of printed ribbon.
The Client's Request: One Stylish Unifying Theme
Sophie and Daan organized an intimate summer wedding with a 'botanical chic' theme. Their wish was to visually connect all individual elements of the styling — the cards, the tables, and the gifts.
Together, we chose our 25mm satin ribbon in Olive Green, printed with a glossy metallic gold imprint of their names and wedding date.
1. The Invitations: A Stylish First Impression
The guest experience began with opening the envelopes. The sleek, minimalist cards were tied closed with the olive green gold ribbon. The ribbon immediately gave the invitations a luxurious 'unboxing' feel.
2. Table Setting: Menu Cards & Napkins
At the wedding venue, the ribbon subtly reappeared on the set tables. Each napkin was rolled and tied with the same ribbon. Because the names of the bride and groom were tied precisely in view, it served as both decoration and a personal detail on the plate.
3. The Bridal Bouquet & Thank-You Gifts
Finally, the ribbon was used around the stems of the bridal bouquet — with the long ends beautifully fluttering in the wind during the photoshoot — and as a finishing touch for the thank-you gifts that guests took home.
