Real Wedding: North Carolina Wedding with Grit & Grace and Perry Vaile

If you are looking for truly unique wedding decor ideas and creative ways to utilize calligraphy in your wedding design, you are in the right place and will not want to miss today’s featured real wedding. While we are traditionally working with engaged couples to design wedding stationery suites, adding our signature hand calligraphy to wedding invitation envelopes or escort cards and place cards, we always jump at the opportunity to add calligraphy to unexpected objects. Even when we don’t create the full wedding stationery suite, it’s always a treat to be involved when creative hand lettering can be included to bring an extra special touch to a couple’s wedding day.

They say it takes a village and that was the idea behind this creative and unique escort card display wall created by Crush Event Design for a beautiful wedding day in the Blue Ridge Mountains, designed and planned by Grit and Grace. Wedding guests attending this elevated rustic wedding in North Carolina were greeted by an escort card display wall full of ceramic houses that we added our hand calligraphy to for a special personalized touch.

You won’t want to miss this elegant, rustic chic North Carolina wedding day with stunning lush floral arrangements expertly captured by Perry Vaile.

Personalized Escort Card and Wedding Favor

An eye-catching escort card wall display is a creative way to make a statement at the start of your wedding reception. This village themed escort display is sure to keep wedding guests talking long after the reception is over! We love having the chance to add our special hand calligraphy touches to any aspect of a wedding day, but even more so when it’s one as unique as these ceramic houses.

Each house was customized to reflect a family name or the names of a couple attending the wedding. In addition to acting as the wedding guests escort cards for their place at the reception, these ceramic houses are a sweet take home gift. How special to have a memento from a loved one’s wedding day? We love that these escort cards had double duty by also being a personalized wedding favor.
