My favorite customization project that we did for the wedding was to put the letter C everywhere, for my new last name. It started out slow, accidentally even, and then all of a sudden we found this awesome font (Champignon, I believe) and we just went nuts. C's on napkins, go! C's on doors, go! A big C made of iron to put on the bar, go! An even bigger C made of iron to put on the patio, go! It was awesome.

I have the small C in our house, you can see it here and here. The big C is at my parents house in the backyard getting beautifully rusty. As soon as we can find a uhaul to put it in, it's coming to our backyard and it's going to be covered in Christmas lights.

ReplyDeleteWhit, this is fantastic! Would you mind sharing your resources for the metal Cs as well as the artwork on the glass? So professional!
ReplyDeleteI. love. this! What a neat idea with the big iron C's! I love that you have them in your house now. I can't wait for y'all to get the big C in your backyard.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! I love that you made a logo/emblem of the C and used it throughout your wedding...so personal and fun!
ReplyDeleteI love the C's! what a fun take away for you.
ReplyDeleteyes yes! the C's were actually done by a friend of our family who is an iron worker. he makes custom iron signs all around my hometown and his wife is a photographer, they're pretty cool! the C on the door was just a vinyl appliqué thing from a sign company in Greenville. I don't have the name!
