From the mysteriously handsome Jay Gatsby himself, “Summer’s almost over. It’s sad, isn’t it? Makes you want to – I don’t know – reach out and hold it back.”  These gorgeous invitations to a unforgettable July affair, photographed by the amazing Charlotte Elizabeth, evolved from a mix of modern elements and a love of all things “Gatsby!”  More photos of the big day coming soon…

The current issue of The Knot features one of our favorite fall clients, Kirsten and Paul!  We were head over heels, with all of the details that so perfectly came together. And, we can help but think that the stationery was the icing on the cake… :)

To see more gorgeous photos from Kirsten and Paul’s wedding visit The Wedding Row!

We are thrilled to be a part of Charleston’s ultimate resource for weddings.  The Wedding Row launched last month and features Charleston’s premier wedding vendors.  Della, the master-mind behind The Wedding Row, was kind enough to feature Studio R as the subject of a recent post.  PERFECT PAPERS

We are also thrilled to see our work captured in the stories behind some of the featured “real life” weddings.   Take some time to browse this site; new posts are featured daily and are sure to WOW you!

A Save the Date is your wedding guests first bit of correspondence, and a sneak peak of the unique look and feel that sets the tone for your wedding day.  Elements of that theme are repeated seamlessly in the invitation creating anticipation for the special day to come!  The theme comes full circle when the day finally arrives and guests can see that it is truly all in the details…  From start to finish your wedding day stationery is a fresh and cohesive work of art!

During the mad rush of fall wedding season, Studio R took time to assist the Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry again with the annual gala.  This year’s theme was Return to Wonderland and WOW was it a hit!  Whimsical save the dates and invitations created by Studio R gave attendees a glimpse of the magical night that was in store.  Above are a few photos taken by expert photographer Andy Hagedon, from the stationery created for the night of the event.  The magical evening raised more that $86,000 for Lowcountry children.

Thank you to the Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry for granting Studio R the opportunity to take part in this special event year after year!

How great would it be to arrive to your hotel, excited about the upcoming weekend events and find these delightful welcome gifts waiting for you!  Personally speaking, we couldn’t think of a better way to thank your guests for traveling near and far to celebrate your special day!   We love it when our brides get creative… both Jessica and Emily’s custom designed favor bags included specialties from the lowcountry.  Both of these brides had family members bundle up their favorite homemade treats, so their guests could enjoy them throughout the wedding weekend!  We have so much fun designing labels, bag tags and weekend itinerary packets that adorn the rustic canvas bags.  Each bride has such a unique design sensibility that the variety of welcome ideas never cease to amaze us!

A Grassroots movement

A Grassroots movement

Studio R is pleased to announce their support of the 10% Shift movement.

It is a very simple idea, yet one that can have a profound effect on our local economy.  The 10% Shift movement encourages individuals to shift 10% of their annual budget from non-local businesses to Local Independents in order to build a strong local economy. According to statistics, if five million households in the Lowcountry participated in this movement, well see for yourself…the statistics are quite impressive!

  • Expanded Job Creation — Create 48,000 new jobs created which would decrease the Lowcountry unemployment rate by 1.5%
  • Economic Growth — Generate over $1 billion of increased economic activity in the Lowcountry
  • Entrepreneurial Ventures — Inspire the formation thousands of new entrepreneurial ventures
  • Environment Protected — Decrease thousands of tons of greenhouse gas emissions
  • Enhanced Communities — Revitalize local Lowcountry communities

After seeing the facts and the impact this movement can have on our local economy, we encourage you to discover more about the 10% Shift movement by visiting their website and pledge your commitment to the revitalization and continued growth of the Lowcountry!

Life revolves around color, or maybe it is defined by color…

 Today I discovered Colorstrology by Michele Bernhardt.  By entering your specific birth date through this interactive website, we were able to gain insight and inspiration into the factors that shape our distinct personalities and in turn draw us to a particular color.  So cool!

My personal Colorstrology (October 22) revealed that I was Dusty Aqua (Pantone 12-5506).  Funny, that my entire house should feature this very color…. and the explanation was right on!  See for yourself, what is your Colorstrology say about you?  We would love to hear from you!
