Kentucky Bride Bridal Show 2011

We had an amazing first time at the Kentucky Bride Bridal Show this last weekend! There was non-stop traffic to our booth and my lovely friend Sarah was so gracious to help me out. My precious daughter let me steal all her bedroom furniture and my sweet husband hauled it all in and out of the swagger-wagon for me. My wonderful mother and sister are the ones who made this opportunity possible for The Blu Sash, so a special thank you to all the people I love the most.

I look forward to the future of The Blu Sash and the new brides I will be working with this year. It has been such a privilege!

I'll be posting the winner of the FREE custom invitation design tomorrow, so check back! Sweet dreams and good night!

Blessings,

Donia

A WEDDING INVITATION SUITE

The art of a wedding invitation. From start to finish it's about discovering the bride and groom and the substance of their bond. Molding it into a visual representation of who they are and what their love represents. It's a depiction of that day. That day and place that is purely theirs in time and space. It belongs to no one else but them. We may be privileged enough to share in a small portion of that day, but only they will truly reside in it.

Our wedding invitation hangs in our home. My husband has one he carries in his Bible. When I see it I am in my eggshell white organza gown standing on the green lawn outside the quaint Ryssby church. The Rocky Mountains are basking in the glow of the brilliant sunset. I'm waiting for my husband to find the keys to the vintage white mustang we will leave in. My Uncle and cousins have sent him on a hunt for the keys. He finds them. My family and dearest friends blow bubbles. We hug and wave our way to the car. We drive off down a rural Colorado country road. The wind is blowing my veil and all we can do is laugh. A brilliant laugh. A giddy laugh. A laugh like no other on a day like no other. Our day.

I hope I captured your day Jessica and Matt. I hope when you see your invitation you are transported to a day when time stood still and it was just the two of you, in love.

A very special thanks to Jessica for entrusting me with the great task of designing for someone with such impeccable taste. Another special thanks to Jennifer Angeloro Photography for your amazing talent! I will recommend you to any bride getting married on Sanibel Island.
