Katie + Sam Wedding Crest
This custom wedding crest was designed for a romantic winter wedding, blending timeless tradition with soft, seasonal detail. At the center, the couple’s intertwined monogram is hand-painted in a classic, calligraphic serif in a rich evergreen hue, a nod to winter foliage. The monogram sits within a structured, heirloom-inspired shield, outlined in a muted garnet tone that matched the color of their bar and adds warmth and depth without overpowering the design.
The final piece was thoughtfully applied across reception elements, including custom tambourines for the dance floor and a large-scale bar installation, creating a cohesive visual thread throughout the evening. The result was a refined yet joyful mark that felt personal to the couple and seamlessly integrated into the elevated winter setting.
Encircling the crest is a delicate garland of florals and greenery, featuring blush and ivory blooms with subtle touches of dusty rose and soft greenery. The floral work feels organic and painterly, balancing the formality of the shield with a romantic, garden-inspired softness. The palette was intentionally restrained and elegant, warm neutrals, winter whites, and natural greens, allowing the crest to feel seasonally appropriate while remaining timeless.
