Our parent company, LPJDesigns, produces banner stands to help businesses advertise at trade shows or other special events. We recently completed these two banner stands (the Retractable on the left, and the X-Kite on the right) for the Perfect Wedding Guide, the local directory in which “With This Ink” advertises (pg. 107 in the Summer 2008 issue!). If you’re a bride, look for these stands at the next bridal show…June 22 at the Cocoa Beach Hilton…and think about how you can use them at your wedding…Seating chart? Thank-you’s? Welcome your guests? Reserve your ballroom? The list goes on!

Our latest couple is Lindsey and Jason! This banner is going to be proudly displayed in the front yard of the bridal shower this Saturday, then used again at the wedding on a CRUISE ship (insert girly sigh). This banner is unique because it was NOT a professional photo, but a really really small photo from a digital camera. Still, we enlarged it and used some ‘tricks’ to make it look dreamy and great. (Hibiscus template, Zapfino font)

I know, I know. This is even newer than the banners which were already new.  :) The idea just came to me and I can’t wait to get it out there!! Forget about the messy window paint and markers…just slap these cute, clean, and fun vehicle magnets on the car to announce to the world that you were “Just Married!” (or any other words you want, it’s your choice, as always!) Drop the hint to your bridesmaids or your parents…but be careful, your mom might want to keep them on her own car indefinitely.

This banner stand was designed specifically for Nicole and Ben’s wedding in Cape Canaveral which was all about candles and roses! It was used to display the seating arrangements for the reception, in lieu of traditional place cards. The “T-Stand” is one of many banner stands that we offer. It measure 2 feet wide and 6.5 feet tall. The height of the graphic is variable, this one was 43″. Another unique idea by With This Ink!

Not wedding related, but a good representation of our products nonetheless! Here is the banner we designed for Jasmine’s fundraiser at Graciela’s Hair Studio last Saturday. All money generated from haircuts that day went towards Jasmine, plus personal donations…for a total of $175! (Groceries for a month for Jasmine and her family!) It was a thoughtful event organized by Mary and select advertisers from the Cocoa Beach/Daytona Perfect Wedding Guide.   

Rick and Mandy are getting married March 22nd! We got a little creative on this one, using the “Rose” template, combined with the green background from the “Daisy” template. We made the rose yellow to match her primary wedding flower.

This past Sunday, With This Ink participated in its first bridal show at the Victorian Lady in Sebastian, Florida. I can’t say that attendance was high (though it wasn’t for lack of trying!) But the weather was perfect, and it was a fun day nonetheless. Our booth was shared with Glenda Blazin from Boutique de Lacet (lingerie, “The Friday Night top”, wine, and all things romantic).

One brave (and beautiful) soul of Boutique de Lacet’s impromptu lingerie runway show!

Raina’s banner was used for a family gathering in the garage, and again at her country club reception!

Here is Raina’s Banner Stand. It was customized with her monogram, and the schedule of her wedding events. It was displayed outside the reception location. (Banner stands are laminated for use inside or out!) Thank you to Concept Photography for the photos taken at Raina’s wedding!
