\"Pressing<\/a><\/p>\n

We Buzzed<\/a> on Pressing Events\u2019 new CITYCENTRE store last week, but we just couldn\u2019t get to all the stuff we love at AND about the new PE in that teeny, tiny newsletter item. So here we go.<\/p>\n

<\/a>\"Pressing<\/p>\n

First up, Emilie Sloan bags. How cute are designer Lisa Murphy\u2019s fully lined totes, market bags and carryalls? The folks who put on the Academy Awards think they\u2019re awfully cute, which is why they included Emilie Sloan in this year\u2019s official swag. Pressing Events owner Nancy Billingsley Calvert is likewise a fan, and told us she \u201cexpects big things\u201d from the collection, which, she notes, is already attracting brides and graduates in droves. These would make fabulous bridesmaid gifts, don\u2019t you think?<\/p>\n

\"Pressing<\/a><\/p>\n

Next: Kaas Decoupage<\/a>. The renowned New York decoupage studio makes absolutely gorgeous decoupage plates with designs sourced from flea markets, antique shows and estate sales. If you\u2019re a bride with vintage vibe, or a traditionalist with a passion for classic wedding commemoration, Pressing Events\u2019 newly expanded line of Kaas plates is perfect for preserving wedding invitations, photos, collages\u2026you name it. Then press it.<\/p>\n

We also adore Pressing Events\u2019 very impressive selection of stationery, which includes all our favorite styles from Crane<\/a>, Elum<\/a>, Smock<\/a>, and Charleston, S.C.\u2019s wonderful The Lettered Olive<\/a>, among others. But PE\u2019s fort\u00e9 is \u201cone-of-a-kind, singular design,\u201d Calvert points out\u2014\u201cmuch like a designer-original wedding dress.\u201d If you\u2019re looking for truly distinguished custom invitations, you must meet with Pressing Events\u2019 Amber Anglin Fowler. Calvert regaled us with the story of how Amber searched Dallas without success for a store to produce the exact right custom invitations for her wedding last year\u2026and ended up creating her own. \u201cThough her mother grew quite weary of her quest, I must say she has found her home with us,\u201d Calvert says. \u201cOur brides love her!\u201d<\/p>\n

And we do, too.<\/p>\n
