Born to Move Mountains | Part 3 of 3 🏔️
For baby Christos’ winter baptism, we set out to create a cozy, mountain-inspired celebration that felt both organic and inviting, filled with natural textures, earthy hues and warm details🏔️
We started with a rich, rustic color palette on the invitations, setting the tone with snow-peaked mountain graphics on the front and on the back—one of our favorite personal touches🏔️
As guests arrived they were greeted with a stunning interactive welcome display we designed. Nestled in deep green calligraphed, gold trim, envelopes lined with mountain-themed liners, guests found their hand-painted table numbers and a custom wood ornament favor. We added the perfect velvet ribbon for an elegant winter touch. We worked with the talented .design.studio .llc to bring this moment to life🏔️
For the little adventurers, we created s’mores gift boxes, complete with mini metal camping mugs and woodland animal cutouts for the sweetest take-home treat🏔️
Inside the reception, four distinct table designs and custom signage though out, brought the mountain retreat vision to life:
🌲 Towering alpine trees created an immersive winter escape.
🕯️ Hanging lanterns added a warm, glowing ambiance—one of our favorite design moments!
🌿 Fresh pine branches in birch pole vessels filled the air with a crisp winter scent.
🔥 Miniature campfires made of wood, stone, and delicate orange blooms gave an interactive, nostalgic touch—a design detail we first introduced back in 2009!
To complement the winter theme, we also designed a hot cocoa bar featuring rich cocoa, Oreo-flavored candy canes (in the perfect brown-and-white stripe!), wood-accented jars and elegant gold utensils—all seamlessly blending into the aesthetic🏔️
Every detail was intentionally designed to bring the magic of the mountains indoors, and we couldn’t be more in love with how it all came together for Christo’s special day 🤍🏔️
Which table design or detail is your favorite?
