For I&A's invitation suite (below), the couple wanted to showcase their love of high fashion floral prints in a way that didn't feel flashy or ostentatious. We created a custom floral painting and paired it with minimalistic graphic design, a stitched booklet and subtle embossing details. The end result felt understated yet strikingly elevated.
For the Promontory dinner menus (below), Jesse wanted to represent spring as an explosive burst of energy that referenced florals in an innovative and unexpected way.
We created layered monoprints of pressed wild flowers so they looked like wild, expressive art forms. They were accompanied by etched ceramic place cards.

“Elsa’s art is insane...she is a true artist. She sees your overall vision and incorporates it into her paper goods flawlessly. She’s also amazing to work with...she’s organized and on top of every detail and timeline. As a planner, It’s imperative I work with vendors whose process is fluid, easy and flexible, and Elsa’s is just that."
