Double Nickels Birthday-

At Joseph's we juggle a wide variety of events. This one was a "top secret" birthday party in the city at the Wit Hotel. Invitations went out to our clients guests about 4 weeks ago, very custom sleeve-style invites were designed by Carol Woldhuis Designs. The artwork was created with elements that were meaningful to the client. The rest of the party theme snowballed from there....with LOTS of NICKELS everywhere.






The Cibomatto Lounge was transformed into a great red-glowing night club. Keeping the decor simple but trendy, was a great idea by our crew. Wanting to keep the theme and artwork of the invitations the prime focus, vellum sheets were printed and wrapped around 9 " pillar vessels, which created an amazing glow in the room. Once again we ran with the nickel theme and scattered thousands of nickel coins like confetti. Buckets of the clients popcorn were a great conversation snack for the guests attending.
Guests had options for a wine-tasting and education, scotch sipping, several food stations to explore while listening to dualing pianos and finally an all out DJ experience.







Don't forget...the nice thing about custom stationery is you can utilize the artwork in many ways. We created napkin artwork that was sent to Ar-En Parting Printing for our two sizes of silver napkins, but also had custom coasters created from the nickel art to tie it all in. We think of "EVERYTHING" at Josephs!


BUT the cake was a sure jaw dropper! We contracted Jaimee Corcoran with A Dash of Whimsy to create the Wrigley Field marquee that was used on the invitations. What an amazing job she did on this scrumptious rich dark chocolate cake layered with raspberry filling. Our clients were impressed beyond belief- Great job Jaimee! Make sure to check out all the detail...down to the nickels-



Happy Double Nickel Birthday Mike!
