crests...

I love a crest. The obsession started in 2008, with Jennie and Mitch's custom invitation, a purple dog, and a transformer. Beyond their humorous requests to make their coat of arms uniquely representative, they did suggest some personal symbolism, like the four stars from Chicago's city flag, and a leaf to symbolize fertility. Since Jennie and Mitch's engraved invitation, we've developed many crests for couples who are looking for an unique way to honor both the tradition of the past, and representation of the future by marking their heritages and passions in a symbolic and historic way.
