Featured Vendor Friday - Creative Custom Card Boxes

Featured Vendor FridayMarni over at Creative Custom Card Boxes makes some of the cutest card boxes I've seen. The best thing is these beauties have a purpose. The question of how do you protect your cards and monetary gifts during the reception is no longer an issue. With a Creative Custom Card Box, storage for those important items is taken care of with style and flair. Be sure to visit Creative Custom Card Boxes, their blog, and follow Marni on Twitter.

1. What inspired you to start your company?


When I was planning my own wedding my mother and I searched high and low for a card box option that wasn't tacky, gaudy, or cheap and that reflected the style of my very customized wedding. After searching online and seeing the options available I decided to create my own. (as shown in the photo above)

After posting my wedding pictures on the net and the Knot.com message boards I had a lot of brides asking me to make them one of their own. I started to do it for fun and then, after speaking to some wedding professionals i'm friendly with who encouraged me, I decided to start up a little business!

2. What wedding trends are you currently loving?

I just love that weddings are so completely customized now! I think we've all been to weddings that were just a bit 'cookie cutter' in the past but the trend now is to totally personalize weddings. Why shouldn't your wedding reflect you?! Its all about the couple and the trend of personalizing each detail and capturing the couple's personalities in those details is so great!
3. What wedding planning advice would you give to engaged couples?

Along the same lines of what I've mentioned earlier, take the time to make your wedding about you! This is the one day that you get to really put your "couple personality" into an event. So don't be afraid to show your guests who you are and what made you fall in love with each other! Most of all, don't sweat the little inconveniences that go along with planning. Remember the people who care about you will be there on the big day to share your celebration of love and of each other. The rest is cake, literally!

4. What do you love most about your job?

I love to work with such fun color combinations and constantly improve my products. I really enjoy it when my clients keep a dialogue going with me as to what they'd like to see. I have a client who actually won a giveaway we've done for a 1 tier Creative Custom Card Box that loved us so much, she's upgraded to a 2 tier!

She sent me some pictures of some other details she's using at her wedding including some pretty flowers she's made out of book pages. I told her that I'd love to use some of her flowers in the design. I can't wait to get working on it!

5. What are your favorite wedding websites and/or blogs?

Of course I love your blog to see some of the great parasols and runners you create! Some other websites I stalk regularly include Brenda's Wedding Blog, Vintage Glam Weddings, Weddingbee, Etsy, ..oh I could go on!
