Seeing this pumpkin makes me want to have a fall wedding to pursue the endless creative possibilities! It’s a great example of twisting something formal like a monogram and making it your own. More and more I see couples using things like monograms, wedding colors, fonts and graphic designs to create a really cohesive feel to their event – essentially to create a wedding brand. Hiring an event company or a wedding coordinator is probably the easiest way to create this feeling of a produced and polished event, however I’m seeing savvy couples figure out how to do it on a budget.
Marry Monograms, based in Seattle, is the type of tool that can give a wedding a polished look. You have the option of choosing a design from their portfolio or having a design custom made especially for you. The personalized logo costs $49.95 and the custom design prices are available by quote. Once you have the logo or monogram the sky’s the limit: invitations, towels, gifts, gobo spotlights, favors, wine labels, thank-you cards or honeymoon clothing — whatever you can think of to put your monogram on! I think half of the fun is figuring out where and on what to stamp your new family crest.
A final thought: it might make a nice engagement gift for some recently betrothed friends.

Oh my goodness, that pumpkin is exquisite! We had a friend design a monogram for us but used it all over our wedding. We put it on our invitations, our programs, and even our favors. We used personalized wine for our wedding favors and this company (bottleyourbrand.com) was able to use our monogram on our wine labels! It was a very chic effect and the labels were cheap, too! We were able to get them for less than $1 apiece!
