Black-Tie Suite

Black Tie Formal Stationery & Signage with Nautical Touches

Rachel and Chris’ wedding stationery and signage exuded classic elegance while subtly weaving in personal touches from their love story. Luxe midnight black paired with timeless wedding white created a striking contrast, with elegant script and refined serif typography conveying sophistication. Their sailboat Last Chance was illustrated for a custom oval wax seal that doubled as meal indicators, while their beloved dog Cosette was featured on playful bar signage. A coloring page of the sailboat and Cosette charmed attending children, while candlelight-inspired accents enhanced the warmth of the day.

Hi, I’m Rachell!
Design isn’t just what I do; it’s how I care for people.

My name, with two Ls and no E, carries family stories: Rachell honors my mom’s high school best friend, a fearless creator, and Rae is a middle name shared by six generations of strong women. That legacy is now carried by my firstborn daughter, Rae Cierra.

I live on California’s Central Coast in San Luis Obispo with my husband, our two daughters Rae and Isla, and our two cats, Princess Rainbow Porcsha and Prince Feirro. I’m a Type A creative who loves wine, a good Gin and Tonic, and a chai latte with a double espresso shot. I bring that same care and energy to every piece I design.

DM me: share your wedding details and I’ll reply with next steps.
