Brooke Hagel graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology with a BFA in Fashion Design. Illustrating was always her favorite part of the design process, but she was told repeatedly that there was no longer any demand for fashion illustrators.
I love this Silhouette Wedding Theme of Cherie and Larry.
The initial outline of silhouette that was used throughout were created by Jamie who has a store called BlueClara at Etsy. Cherie sent her some photos of profiles that Larry and she took at the Tech museum in San Jose. Cherie had cookie cutters made by Victor Trading Co and brought them to a local bakery here in Alameda called Boniere Bakery. They made the cookies with sugar cookie dough and white and grey royal frosting.
Since they were having guests take home some candy after their afternoon affair, Cherie made a logo for the bags that would bid them a good afternoon in English and Tagalog, “Magandang Hapon” and “Good Afternoon.” She used the silhouettes that Jamie made them and used her handy Gocco to screenprint/stamp them onto paper bags that they got from Paper Mart. Cherie made the streamers using goldenrod and grey ribbons from Britex and glued them onto wooden dowels from a local hardware store. she also made a little note for guests asking them to wave the streamers when they go down the aisle.
Cherie found this Filipino-American wedding featured in Martha Stewart Weddings and borrowed the idea of making cocktail swizzles using bamboo drink stirs and small labels that read, “Mabuhay,” a Filipino greeting that means, “Long Live!” Cherie also printed labels that read, “L’ Chaim,” a Jewish greeting that means, “To Life!”
Cherie really liked the look of framed silhouettes and felt cut-outs so she cut out their silhouettes on felt (using the silhouettes made for them by Jamie), glued them on to a grey background, framed them in embroidery hoops and put a grey velvet ribbon to hang them on the chairs.
