✨ When the drinks are this good, the menu should be part of the décor. 🍸💫

We’ve been so lucky to partner with this season, creating custom acrylic drink menus that showcase their signature cocktails at weddings + events across the city. 🥂

A huge THANK YOU to the Side Bar team for trusting us with so many orders already this year — and for raising the bar (literally!) at Calgary’s most stunning celebrations.

If you’ve booked Side Bar for your event, you already know magic is happening behind the bar.
👉 Add the perfect finishing touch with a beautifully designed menu to match.

Your guests will notice the details. ✨

When the Wedding Fair Godmother gets married, you know it’s going to be next level.✨

Jenna & Chad tied the knot at the Calgary Zoo (yes — with alpacas 😍) and we were lucky enough to have a backstage pass to witness all the magic unfold. From sunshine to a surprise hail storm to literal rainbows — their day had it all.

Jenna, the powerhouse behind .yyc, trusted us to bring something bold and fresh to her signage — nothing that’s been done before. Her only request? Incorporate her wedding colours and make it feel like her. 🌿🌸

We designed a set of arched panels with custom floral decals to welcome guests and guide them through the day — a perfect fit for such a one-of-a-kind celebration.
And here’s the most special part: this was our son’s very first on-site wedding with Mom! At just 24 days old, he joined us among the peacocks and cherry blossoms — and it was the cherry on top of an already unforgettable day. He’ll be helping out in no time. 💛
Jenna, thank you for being the dream client, and an even dreamier human. For any bride who needs a calm, capable, and freaking fabulous coordinator, don’t walk — run to .yyc

Where do we begin with Andrea & Kyle?

💍 On May 2, we had the honour of being part of their stunning day at Venue 308 — as part of a giveaway wedding with some of Calgary’s most generous vendors.

But the truth? They gave us just as much.

Just weeks before their wedding, we welcomed our first baby — and Andrea’s patience, kindness, and unwavering support during this wild and wonderful transition meant the absolute world to us. 💕

There were delays, new routines, and more chaos than we expected — and yet Andrea made it all feel okay. This rocky start to motherhood and business juggling was met with clients like her — and it reminded us exactly why we do what we do.

Andrea and Kyle, you are so deserving of every ounce of magic your day held. We can’t thank you enough for trusting us and being the kind of people who make the hard days worth it. 🥹✨
