Love Bears All Things | Brian & Bessy

Brian and Bessy were referred to us here at Template by a colleague in the field, which we were and are greatly appreciative. Our charming bride Bessy was a joy to work with. She was a bride that was sure of what she wanted and had such a fun theme.

Her theme allowed her to be very liberal with her colour choices and we just loved hers! She chose a plummy purple and teal with accents of gold.

This lovely couple’s invitation was a seal and send invitation

meaning there was no need for an envelope, gift selection card or reception card, as everything is printed inside the invitation jacket. Because of its functionality and simplicity, this invitation style is very popular.

Enclosed in a teal coloured cardstock jacket, their invitation was printed on a

and inserted symmetrically between the vertical pleats. On the inside of the top fold, a scripture was printed in a royal purple print and on the bottom, was the reception and rsvp information.

Printed on the far left of the invitation insert, a glamorous peacock feather graced with whimsical swirls encircled the initials of the couple BR2, thus creating this duo’s very unique wedding day monogram.

Separating the monogram and the vital wedding details on the invitation was a delicate plum ribbon, embellished with a bow.

The couple also got a matching monetary envelope, which was placed inside the invitation jacket.

The invitation was closed with a custom seal and the back of the invitation was addressed with the name of each guest for a personal touch.

This day was just so special for this couple. Surrounded by her bridesmaids who prayed for her and her future marriage, Bessy also troubled the Throne of Grace.

A multitude of invited guests gathered together at the South West Church of God to witness this joyous occasion. The church was beautifully decorated with elegant white flowers and glamorous white drapery.

Upon entry, each guest was welcomed with a booklet styled program that was perfectly outfitted in the couple’s chosen colours.

This style of booklet is ideal for the couple that has a lot of information they would like to relay to their guests, such as hymns, gratitude, memorials, acknowledgements and more. It did prove to be the perfect vehicle for Bessy and Brian’s wedding ceremony.

The bride has arrived; let the ceremony begin!

The couple’s parents, and grandparents entered first. Pictured is Bessy’s mother, who was accompanied by her nephew.

He wore a peacock boutonniere, which Bessy found here at Template.

Bessy’s bridesmaids and matron of honour were in their colours, teal and purple, and Brian’s groomsmen and his ring security wore navy suits made by KIS Be Spoke.

Finally, Bessy graced everyone with her presence as she ascended down the aisle first escorted by her brother...

...and then by her father.

She surely was an exquisite, beautiful bride and Brian was quite a handsome and dapper groom.

As she and her father approached him, Brian bowed in respect to Bessy’s father, received her from her father and proudly walked with her to the end of the passageway.

As the newlyweds took their portraits at the Baha Mar Resort, guests made their way to the reception venue.

Once there, they were able to see where they were to be seated by using the couple’s custom made seating chart.

Encased in a gorgeous gold frame and adorned with peacock feathers and gold buckles, this twosome’s seating chart had all the bells and whistles. At the center of the seating chart sat a lovely photo collage of the two. What a nice touch!

Another personal touch this couple implemented was the use of the Fruit of the Spirit such as love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, gentleness and self- control and other encouraging words such as delight, passion, charity, and agape as their table names instead of doing traditional table numbers.

To keep their colour theme going, the table cards were printed on the same paper as their paper jacket from their invitation, and of course their custom monogram was present.

To round off the set, the reception program outlined the order of the reception, the expected toasts and the menu.

Brian and Bessy are truly the life of the party. They completely surprised their guests by having an outfit change.

When they entered the auditorium as Mr. and Mrs. Rolle, they were in red and were even in match converse sneakers!

Once their guests saw that, they knew it was time to celebrate!!

The Rolle’s are now husband and wife and had the wedding of their dreams. We were truly grateful to have met and worked with this magnificent couple! We here at Template Invitations wish them well and pray that all God’s riches blessings will follow them always!
