Vendor Profile: Blue Magpie

MWC Vendor Profile Banner
Today, I want to introduce you to Blue Magpie – Jeannine Pao is the uber-talented artist behind this company. It’s funny – Jeannine and I go way back to high school and both had different career paths before we reconnected last year because of the wedding industry. Her work has been featured on: Style Me Pretty, Brides, The Knot, and Weddings Unveiled.
Blue Magpie specializes in custom, handcrafted fabric wedding invitations designed to be the perfect introduction to your unforgettable event. Whether your event is formal and elegant or sweet and full of personal details, we can help you find the perfect fabric and paper combination so your guests feel the love, joy, and excitement of your wedding right out of the envelope! Blue Magpie is also an eco-friendly company, using 100% post-consumer recycled papers for all our digital flat printing and tree-free cotton papers for our letterpressed work.
I’ll leave you with some gorgeous images of her work.

I love the scents of Jo Malone.  They are all so crisp, clean, and not overwhelming.  This is their luxurious Red Roses line that would be perfect for Valentine’s Day.  From Jo Malone:  “Composed of seven types of roses from around the world, red roses is a surprisingly clean, voluptuous scent. With a heart of crushed violet leaves and hints of lemon and spearmint, it unfolds like a bouquet of fresh-cut flowers.” – $95
8gb touch
If you or your fiance don’t have an iPhone or iPod touch yet, consider getting one for them.  Starting at only $99, it is truly a must have gadget.  With over 140,000 apps at your fingertips, you’re bound to find some new and useful apps that will make you wonder how on earth you’ve ever lived without.  Since you’re planning your wedding, you’ll have to download our free app to make finding wedding vendors and inspiration easier than ever!

If you love green tea, you MUST try the Mariage Frères Green Tea Collection.  The Mariage Frères tearoom in Paris is truly magnificent.  You will be dazzled with a selection of over 500 teas to choose from.  From Dean & Deluca:  “Vert Provence, a grand green tea with a flowery, slightly grassy scent, blended with fruits from Provence and ripe red and black berries; Casablanca, a marriage of Moroccan green mint tea and bergamot flavored tea; and Thé A L’Opera, a favorite green tea flavored with fruits and spices.” – $90
