Cute, Cute Custom Christmas Cards!

We just did two very different, but such custom Christmas cards! We HAD to share!

First, we have sweet Harris whose mom loved the Southern wording, but wanted a custom card so she could incorporate multiple pictures! How precious is he? Those eyes!!!!





Next, we have Julie who has lots of changes this year! They got married, bought a new house, and are having a baby! They also live on the coast so wanted to somehow give a Christmas-y feel but also a nautical twist!

This is what we came up with...nautical chic flags! And we are kind of OBSESSED with the whole "We've Dropped Anchor" wording on the back!!!





If you have a special something you want to somehow incorporate into your cards but can't figure out how, let us help! We like to think that is our specialty!

Oh, and spread the word! Christmas card sale has been extended....15% off now thru November 15th! This is for the preset designs AND custom, and keep in mind that you can ALWAYS change colors, wording, or layout on the presets for no extra charge!

XOXO,
Nico and Lala

Going to The Chapel...but first, Save the Dates!

The first step after saying "yes", but before saying "I do" is to send out your Save the Dates!

This has become more and more common over the years and is just a way of telling people to do exactly that, to hold that date on their calendar! This is MOST important for destination weddings where guests would need to book flights, hotel rooms, etc.

We recently had a bride come to us who is getting married in Harbor Island, Bahamas (we are totally jealous...). She knew she obviously wanted beachy, and a rustic look but wanted a few options.

Below are the four designs we came up with! Which one do you all think was the winner???







...And the Winner!!!



Here are a few other recent swanky Save The Dates!



The Postcard Save the Date






These each really tell the look and feel of the upcoming wedding. We love nothing more than starting with these and continuing on with the wedding invitations, favors, signage, the list goes on and on!!!

XOXO,
Nico and Lala

Boys Just Wanna Have Fun!

When we began Nico and Lala last year, we never knew how many kid's birthday parties we would be asked to help with! We LOVE coming up with all the coordinating ideas; activities, favors, signage, everything!!!!

These two parties were so fun because they were so different!

So many moms come to us asking us to help make cartoon characters or superheros...well, dare we say it.....swanky!

So first up we have a Yo Gabba Gabba invite and party pics...SO adorable!









They had lunches for the kids so we did white boxes with custom stickers reading "Yummy in my Tummy!" PRECIOUS!



And next up we have the most adorable idea for a dirty, muddy little boys party! SO fun! And then how cute are the "Wiggly Worms" favors we did?! Precious!!!



How cute is the little worm on the envelope??!





We would love to help make your little man's party special!!!!

XOXO,

Nico and Lala

Let's Play Ball!

We recently did the cutest engagement party! They had a Softball Showdown as the Thursday night party for all of the friends of the bride and groom to get to know each other! We cannot take credit for the idea, but we CAN take credit for the super cute swag and invitation!

The swanky invitation definitely set the tone for a softball showdown!!!



We wonder what they were drinking out of these cups??!?! HA!



Different color tshirts for the opposing teams! And what a great party favor too!







Group Shot!


What a fun and different party! Congrats to Jessica & Ryan!!

XOXO,
Nico and Lala
