Va is for Lovers

My wedding is going to be in Northern VA and I love the idea of incorporating the slogan "Virginia is for Lovers" into my reception, wedding favors, etc. I am just having a hard time finding items that I can buy with this on them, and that offer different ideas. For example, all the items I have seen have a red heart (as the love) and I would love to find items that have a purple heart or other color, to go better with my colors. But I'm not too picky and just wondered if anyone knows of a website or store that carries this slogan on different items that I could use? Or if anyone has ideas as to what I can do to incorporate it into different aspects of my wedding?

I don't think there is a place you can buy something like that as a default, thats something your going to have to have custom made. Try discountmug.com you can probably do something like that there to buy in bulk. Or you can go to any virginia turist centers and see what they have there, ask if you can buy in bulk.

That's a really cute idea. This website has VA tourist merch:

http://www.designlabonline.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/index.html

That might give you a good idea of the type of stuff you can find. There's a phone number on the website, they might be able to help you find what you're looking for.

Good luck with your search!

I am also getting married in NoVa and I have found that designing the items at a print store is much more affordable and you can make them to match your colors and theme exactly. The website I love is www.vistaprints.com. I have made DC post cards, bumper stickers, save the dates, and table name cards! Hope that helps.

Hi! You may have already tried this but there is a website which sells the merchandise that you're looking for it is www.virginiaisforlovers.com. If you didn't want to purchase all of the items from there, you could purchase one of each thing that you like and have it printed locally. I am also a planner in Virginia and would love to help any of you posters with your weddings! My website is at www.sweetsandsoirees.com. I'd be more than happy to help!

Hi there and congratulations,
If you are trying to save money on this I would make them myself. I am a wedding planner in Maryland and I did a wedding in NC, the couple wanted something unique to them. They love to be photographed, so I made them votive candles with their picture on it and their names and the date of the wedding. And not those mailing labels that have white backgrounds. Everyone loved them, it was not expensive and it didn't take long and she got to use her favorite scent the fresh linen. But that's a thought, just put VA is for lovers on the votive with a picture of you two together.

Let me know how it goes.

Lisa
