We tried to incorporate the St Louis Cardinals into our wedding in a subtle way. We’re both fans–one of our first dates was to a Cards game, and they’ve been near and dear to me ever since. 
Until I discovered my garter, I’d planned on creating some sort of Cardinals garter. But in the end, we only ended up incorporating them in one way:
Hmm…maybe more of a close-up would help:
Yes, that’s the same font that we used on all our stationery. 
Programs, invites, you name it. It was all in that font!
Unfortunately, I don’t think any of our guests noticed–or if they did, they didn’t mention it to us. But it still makes me happy!
It’s a good thing you didn’t do the garter. I tried to get this great red sox garter, in honor of my boston obsessed husband, and I paied about $52, and never received the garter! I have filed a complaint with AMEX and they in turn contacted paypal, but I was not happy with this company at all! Plus, they never returned my emails and no phone number was listed on the site. I should’ve known better.
I’m hoping to make it down to Kiener Plaza for photos on the big day. We’ll see if I make it!
I am a HUGE Cards fan, but my fiance is not such a huge fan — yet. But he is getting there… he will watch a game with me. I’m not incorporating the Cardinals into my wedding day, but our children WILL be outfitted in Cards onesies, etc. — once a pregnancy is announced, they are always given as gifts in my family.
so cute! half the fun of being a hands-on bride and planning these little details is knowing that you’ve put “love” into the little things of your wedding– and incorporated memories into your wedding. congrats, great idea!

About Me: We're having an intimate, 125-ish person wedding with a full-blown dessert reception. When I'm not obsessing over wedding stuff or studying for my BA in English, I'm usually playing with our two kitty cats, blogging, doing crafty things, or hanging out with Mr. Blueberry!
I feel the same way. Most of our guest didnt realize our invites were done by yours truely until I mentioned it. They all thought I had them professional done. They didnt realize how I actually put some thought into which font I liked. Oh well…
