At Whim, there’s never a dull moment! We recently went to a wedding in a gallery, where each guest was asked to bring a piece of art to decorate the space. This made for a super cool conversations starter! Then today, after brainstorming with one of our lovely brides, who just happens to be an artist, our creativity went through the roof! We love art. We love working with artists. We love designing artful spaces. And in fact, the whole reason we started Whim was to collaborate with local artists and create the most unique, personal and beautiful events we could possibly create. Cookie-cutter wedding days are over (that is, unless you are using cookie cutters in some cool way – a hanging mobile perhaps?). So today, we’re getting artsy.. with some colorful wedding ideas inspired by our favorite artist tool.. the good old fashioned Crayon Box. =)

Use this adorable poster as wall decor, as part of a picture collection near the guestbook, or ask guests to sign it with well wishes:
Who says you have to pick wedding colors? Use them all! Multi-colored balloons & lollipops make us happy:
Adore this RSVP…”The favor of your creative reply is requested”…Guests receive a blank RSVP card, and they get to draw you a picture. Display these cards at the wedding or rehearsal dinner and guests will get a kick out of them:
Bring your venue’s space to life with colorful mobiles.. Not sure how to make one? Don’t worry, we’ve got people 
Our favorite quirky billy ball now comes in every color: (the colored ones are fake, but still cool. Available on Etsy).
So we know you probably can’t paint on the walls at your venue, but what about a sweet mural backdrop for your photobooth or chalkboard art for the dessert table? Great keepsake, too. Check out more of Jen’s hand-drawn art here: http://cutpastelove.homestead.com/
Bottom line…Art is fun. Weddings are fun. Art + Weddings = Fun!!!
