Bat Mitzvah Program


These girls LOVE the stage and their Bat Mitzvah party was being held at a renovated theatre. I made these programs for them modeled after ones that are given out at a live show. The girls were the "stars" of the show with their parents being listed as the producers and party planner Andrea Solomon as the director. The girls friends wrote "rave reviews" and some fun was added also in the form of a word search puzzle. Anything is possible at Just Your Type Design, write us at jytdesign@aol.com to see what unique items we can add to your next event.

Combo Wedding Program / Place Cards


I have done quite a few of this format but on these I used a taller and narrower layout so they were able to get more cards on the table and also it makes for easier viewing for the guests. Mother of the Bride said there were so many compliments on the design. Guests also liked knowing where they were seated before the ceremony so there was not a mad dash before the reception to find their table assignment. Contact me at jytdesign@aol.com and I'll make you a personalized program and placecard combo that is both beautiful and functional!

I LOVE seating charts!


Here is another seating chart I did for a couple last month. They had it displayed as guests walked into the reception and not only was it decorative and coordinated with the rest of their wedding, it was easy for their guests to see.
Contact me at jytdesign@aol.com for details on having a custom designed chart for your wedding or celebration. These are great for Bar and Bat Mitzvahs also.

Beyond weddings


Designing invitations for birthdays, etc. are so much fun! I was looking through my files and found this one I had done last October and thought I should share it. Her daughter gave me this picture to use and it was perfect as she was holding an envelope in her hand which I converted to her favorite color red and used it to add some spice to the invite. I enjoy coming up with these poems that put all the details in rhyme. I used just a portion of the picture on the envelope so the recipient also has a surprise of their own and when I found the "Celebrate" stamp, it completed everything perfectly. I would love the opportunity to create an invitation for your next event that fits whatever style you are, write me at jytdesign@aol.com with details.

Seating Charts for all occasions



Seating charts have always been a favorite of mine as an alternative to place cards. They are so decorative and make a wonderful keepsake long after the event has ended. Most venues have easels that can be used to display them and other options are available. Contact me at jytdesign@aol.com and let me come up with the best seating arrangement for your upcoming event.

Invitation poems & more


Another one of the things I offer is putting the details of your event to rhyme. Here is a recent example. These are especially good for Milestone age birthday parties but can be done for any event. Bar and Bat Mitzvah candle lightings are another of the many services offered by Just Your Type Design. Contact me at jytdesign@aol.com with your event details.

Creative Envelope Addressing



This is how I started out and it is still one of my favorite things to do. While I have made complete wedding invitation ensembles, most brides I have dealt with prefer thermograph invitations, where the ink is raised. The machines that do this process are very expensive. However, the same companies that do the thermograph invitations are unable to provide the personalized envelope addressing that I offer. Here are 2 examples of recent envelopes I have done that used the original invite fonts and ink colors.
Show me your invitation and I will come up with a truly unique addressing style that will WOW your guests. Contact me at jytdesign@aol.com to find out more about my many services for wedding, bar and bat mitzvahs and other special events.
