American Flag

Baby announcement doesn't always have to be all cutesy.
Just like Baby Z's. The theme for this baby announcement and labels is based on the American Flag, with bold red and blue. We kept the design clean and simple by using simple border, pattern and typography.

Baby Z is in da house!

Clockwise Pictures

"Passion for Great Pictures." We got to know Andrew the owner of Clockwise Pictures when we were referenced by our closed friend Melina to do our pre-wed pictures with him. We become friends kept contacts since.

I have been following his works and being amazed by his professional growth and how much Clockwise's studio has evolved. Here are some of my personal favorite pictures from Clockwise's latest works.

DIY Party Favors

DIY Persian Cotton Candy Wedding or Party Favours
DIY Fairy Floss Favor
eatdrinkchic.com


We think we have found the dreamiest DIY party favor tutorial ever! This one is from eat drink chic, which we love to visit whenever we could squeeze the time.. 

Fairy floss is an all time carnival/party snack and I just love to watch how it's made.. Packaged in a translucent envelope, it's just too hard to resist!

Contact us for your your own customized wedding/party favors info@sophacompany.com  





WHAT YOU WILL NEED
  • Fairy Floss - You can use different flavors/colors or use only one flavour with different coloured labels 
  • Transluscent Paper with white polka dots for the envelopes.
  • White printable sticker paper or white card for labels- I've used a textured white card.
  • Double sided tape or glue.
  • Scalpel and Scissors.
  • Colour Printer.
  • Rounded corner punch - for envelopes
  • Small clear plastic sealable bags- these will need to fit inside the transluscent bag. (If they are too long they can always be folded back slightly).
  • Label design in assorted colours- download below.
  • Envelope template- DOWNLOAD HERE

INSTRUCTIONS
Print out your envelope design onto transluscent, white polka dot paper and using the scalpel, cut out, score along fold lines (indicated by dotted lines) and construct your envelope. I've used double sided tape on the side tabs to stick the envelope together. Use the rounded corner punch on the corners of the lid.
Put your Pashmak into a sealable bag and make sure it is sealed thoroughly. Slip this bag into your transluscent envelope.
Print our your labels and cut out with scalpel.  For the rounded semi-circle edge, I found that cutting carefully and slowly with a scissors produced quite an accurate cut and I didn't need anything more sophisticated than that.
If you are using white card, put a strip of double sided tape along the length of the back of your label and stick onto the front of the bag. (View photos for positioning).
IMPORTANT INFO
Because of the nature of Fairy Floss, it should be stored in a dark, cool place in an airtight container. Because of this it is probably best to package your favours at the very last possible moment before your wedding or party, (perhaps the day before) and it is crucial that you store it inside a sealable bag first before you put it into your transluscent envelope. In fact, to be on the safe side I would actually experiment before the event and test to see whether leaving the Pashmak in your sealable bag will preserve it adequately overnight.

Mandy & Earl's Invitation

In today's photo sessions we also had fun trying to capture the elegance of Mandy & Earl's wedding invitation. It is an American style invitation, clean, simple and elegant complete with the RSVP reply. These photos I choose were beautifully taken by Grace Waldemar who just join our team this month.

 



Steven & Syanti's Invitation

Steven & Syanti are getting married this October. Initially, they assigned us only to work on the design but we ended up taking over the whole productions. These invitations just got sent to us from the printer yesterday and we right away set a photo session today to share it in our blog. We wish Steven & Syanti a happy marriage that's filled with love. Congratulation!!

Cupcakes Please...

If you are a cupcake lover like me, you should try one of Chocolate Amore's red velvet. It's one of the best red in town with the right amount of sweetness, a soft and moist texture that melts as you chew. I've order their cupcakes for several occasion now, they comes in several different flavors and fillings with lovely customizable designs too.


Stylish Angpau

In Chinese tradition, the color red symbolized good luck—we think green, blue, purple, brown and yellow too. Here are some angpau envelope by Sopha & Co.

Designer's Wedding

At Sopha & Co, we offer one-of-a-kind bespoke wedding stationery designs for every style and personality. With attention to detail and quality craftsmanship, we strive to provide the best for our clients.



Prestony Bailey's Tree

Here at Sopha Company, we love challenges. Our client Josephine came to us with a picture of Preston Bailey's famous floral tree and asked us to interpret it. So we expanded our creative brains a bit and voila! this gorgeous 3D design was born..

Fly Me to Rumah Maroko

When Monika came to me and told me about her wedding concept that was based on travel I was super excited, because I knew it was going to be different that what's out there. She specifically asked that the invitation should look like an airplane boarding pass. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut.




Family Portraits

"When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses."
~ Joyce Brothers

These family portraits were taken on the same day as our princess' birthday, Annabelle...
How delighted she was with all the attention on that day (see the last picture :D)
We commissioned two of our favorite photographers for this occasion: Ian Photography and Jeffrey Darmawan.


Photos are a great way to capture a certain time in our lives
As there will be no other exact moment like it...
