Kevin Dennis (0:0.809)

All right, folks, welcome to the next episode of I'm engaged. Now that I'm engaged, how do I get married? I don't even know the name of my own podcast. It's kind of silly of myself. I'm you know, but we'll get through that. I'm here with the amazing Christy Rice, and she's going to be talking to us about be your own inspiration for your wedding day aesthetic. So, Christy, tell us a little bit about yourself. And how did you get here today? Like, how did we get to this moment? Yeah.

Kristy (0:22.862)

Oh my goodness. I don't know. No, I'm kidding. So yeah, I run this really crazy creative stationary studio called Momental Designs. We create bestoke, hi, bestoke, bespoke. Stationary for couples worldwide. And I have a team.

Kevin Dennis (0:42.121)

See? You... Not alone today!

Kristy (0:51.842)

Of 10 and we just are doing our thing and how I ended up here I have no idea because when I first started my brand my business, whatever you want to call it. I Just was like, oh, yeah, I want to be like known in Pennsylvania for stationary and here I am, you know Doing the whole global thing. So, you know, it's pretty cool Yeah

Kevin Dennis (1:13.381)

It is cool. So all right. So stationary. We're talking about wedding day aesthetics. Talk me through the process that you have to get couples to like get going. Like what's the first like little first part, you know?

Kristy (1:30.386)

Yeah, well, I'll be honest because bespoke stationary is really built upon decision making. And I have found that couples in the last few years, I don't want to start talking about generation titles, you know. But, you know, they were brought up, you know, in a very different way. They were taught a different way. It was like community learning, community decision making.

Kevin Dennis (1:37.342)

Mmm.

Kevin Dennis (1:47.573)

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Kristy (1:58.610)

And so I am finding now that is something that we have to work towards and really understand that. So the big hurdle for our couples is trusting themselves as a couple, right? Because we've been taught to make decisions by committee. And so, and trusting yourself with this new medium, which is stationary as fine art. And that can be just...

Kevin Dennis (2:9.826)

Oh, I agree. Yeah.

Kevin Dennis (2:15.773)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (2:23.582)

Hmm

Kristy (2:27.054)

momentously overwhelming. I don't even know if that's a word. You know what I mean? And so that is the first step. Educating them on certain words that we're going to use all the time. Educating them on, you know, certain types of decisions they're going to be making on a regular basis. Repeatable decisions, you know, but also making it fun. I mean, because it is fun, but we have to figure out a way to make it fun and exciting and inspiring for them.

Kevin Dennis (2:30.174)

That is.

Kevin Dennis (2:45.757)

Hmm.

Kristy (2:56.712)

So, yeah.

Kevin Dennis (2:58.121)

How long does it take to get to that process? It seems kind of like it's, it's kind of takes a while.

Kristy (3:3.606)

Honestly, a lot of it's ongoing, you know, and it's that's where the relationship piece comes in. And that's why, you know, couples hear the advice all the time. You know, you need to hire someone that you feel like you could be friends with. And this is a perfect example of why that is so important because you are developing a relationship with them over a certain amount of period, you know, period of time, whether it's three months, whether you're doing something last minute.

Kevin Dennis (3:5.575)

Okay.

Kevin Dennis (3:17.246)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (3:21.630)

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (3:30.218)

It's still a three month relationship during the most stressful, crazy time of your life to this point, right? So yeah Yeah, it doesn't you know, the learning continues throughout the whole process um Yeah

Kevin Dennis (3:36.714)

Yeah.

Kevin Dennis (3:47.165)

So now, is there a way couples use social media like Pinterest, Instagram to get inspiration or where do we channel? Where do you want them to go?

Kristy (3:59.098)

I mean, I really want our couples, I still, I'm an OG. So, you know, like I want them to go to the website, but I know that that's not usually the first place they find us. And I'm okay with that. You know, we are very present, for example, on Instagram and stories, right? And, but we are often then gearing our stories to, okay, here's a place you can go. You like this piece of content. This piece of content is,

Kevin Dennis (4:10.286)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (4:15.721)

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (4:28.758)

you know, inspiring more questions, okay, now go here. And that is usually back to our website because we've created kind of this information space on our site that they can access when they're ready. But I'm not forcing them there first because that's not where they wanna be first. They wanna be just scrolling through, doing keyword searches, you know, tag search, hashtag searches.

Kevin Dennis (4:42.217)

Hmm.

Kristy (4:57.847)

in their feed on Instagram. And so they're getting excited, inspired, entertained first by our content. And then the questions, the deeper dive comes after that and we get them to our site or a phone call, of course.

Kevin Dennis (5:14.185)

So with my company, because we do lighting and drapery, you know, and chandeliers, I will sometimes have clients that come to me and they're showing me all these, you know, Instagram and showing me these photos and Pinterest. And then meanwhile, that's not what they want. They like one little item out of the, you know, one little small little thing out of the photo, but yet they're showing it to me. You know, and one example is this one bride kept showing me, she kept telling me, I want everything to be pale pink and blah, pink.

and everything she showed me in her photos were lavender. And I'm like, girl, now, and I just, as an outsider looking at her work, I was like, do you recognize this? And she's like, and then her mom like tapped her on the shoulder and goes, I told you, you know, it was that moment. So like, when you're going through that process with them, how do you get it out of them? You know what I'm saying? Like, how do...

Kristy (6:8.782)

Wow, well, yes, because, and I think this comes back to understanding the platforms that they are doing their research on. So let's talk about Instagram, TikTok. We are all being trained to have shorter attention spans. So what does that mean? We're also being trained to spot things that we like, like squirrel, and hone in on it very quickly. So as the creatives,

Kevin Dennis (6:17.372)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (6:24.506)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (6:34.761)

Mmm.

Kristy (6:38.198)

We need to understand that. We need to speak to that. So I feel like we need to ask questions. Like, okay, so I'm seeing a lot of lavender here. Is that what you want me to see or is there something else you want me to see? You know, I think those kinds of questions are important across the niches, across the industry, whether you're a stationer, a designer, food, whatever.

Kevin Dennis (6:54.200)

Hmm

Kristy (7:7.966)

We have to understand attention spans, how they're digesting information, and we have to figure out the new questions to ask. So if your creatives aren't doing that.

Kevin Dennis (7:10.924)

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (7:22.306)

Yeah.

Kevin Dennis (7:23.802)

Well, how do we get them like to objectively look at their photos you like is there a trick to that or okay?

Kristy (7:28.906)

I think it's just that question. What do you see here? Like what is important in this photo? Ask them that. You know, because you as the creative, like you just said, you had heard from the couple pink, and then she's showing you all lavender, lavender. So you have to take that cue because she's not gonna take your job. I'm sorry, I'm not like trying to school you, but I'm just saying like it's our job to then be like, oh, she said pink.

Kevin Dennis (7:33.896)

Oh, okay.

Kevin Dennis (7:42.737)

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (7:49.001)

Yeah.

No? No! School me, girl!

Kristy (7:58.542)

that I need to ask this next question. What is it you want me to see here?

Kevin Dennis (8:0.933)

Okay. Okay, fair enough. No. All right. So then we're going through the process is there like, how do we bring our person? How do they bring their personality into their wedding day? What are things that, you know, a couple can do to really make sure it's about the two of them because I'm a big believer. I I'm not a cookie cutter person when it comes to weddings. I want it all to be even though it's a wedding.

Kristy (8:4.770)

Yeah.

Kevin Dennis (8:26.797)

Everything is the same at a wedding. There's dinner and first dance and whatever traditions you choose to do. But it's like, I want them, I want it to be about the two of them. So how do we get that information out of them?

Kristy (8:37.890)

This is really difficult. This is very difficult. Even for couples.

Kevin Dennis (8:41.133)

Oh, I lost you, Christy. Oh, no.

Kristy (8:45.730)

Do you see me or you can't hear me?

Kevin Dennis (8:48.382)

We're gonna roll.

Kristy (8:51.918)

down.

Kristy (8:59.054)

doing something.

Kevin Dennis (9:23.125)

We're rolling. We'll see if she comes back.

I barely know them, I just met him.

Yay, you're back. Oh, what happened?

It was me. I actually don't know. It just the internet like blinked out. I got a notification on my phone to use cellular data. And I'm like, I've never seen anything like that before. So I just, I rebooted. Pfft.

Kevin Dennis (12:2.234)

Hehehehehehehehehehe

Kevin Dennis (12:7.449)

Okay, I figured that's what you're doing. That's why I sat here. I've been recording the whole time. So we're all good. So care. Oh, so I so I was asking you about like, how do we get their personality to come out of them? How do we really get them to look, you know, not being cookie cutter and not doing the same thing over and over again?

Sorry, that was super dupe strange.

Okay, goody. I'm trying to remember...

Yes. So this is actually, this is a problem that has never stopped from the first day that I opened my doors to today, right? Because there is always an amount of, a number of couples that just, it seems effortless for them to express themselves. They just have an instinct about it. And then that is what we see the most of when we are

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (13:1.187)

on the blogs, on the Instagram accounts, on TikTok. We are seeing a lot of that same content or the same style of content again and again. And we're like, okay, well, this is how it is to be creative and express ourselves. But that's essentially, you're becoming cookie cutters. So our couples have a hard time stepping outside of that. And so the ways that we do that is we ask them a lot of questions. We ask them, number one, to look back

Mmm.

Yeah.

Hmm.

to their own lives, to their own homes, to their own spaces, to their own, their childhood homes, textiles that they loved and grew up with. Like, I just went from the big picture to the small. You know what I mean? Like we encourage them to understand the thought process behind making decisions that are personalized, not just seeing the end result of a personalized choice, if that makes sense.

Hmm.

It does. It does. So now what do we do? Couples need to look at like brands they identify with, you know, where they shop, you know, does that help all that? And why is it? And why is that important?

Kristy (14:5.535)

Yeah! Absolutely!

Well, here's the thing, I mean, as a business owner, we look at that stuff to figure out who, how to speak to the couples that we are now being hired by, right? So, but we need to throw that back and be like, this is how you figure out how to translate your personality, all the cool stuff that makes you who you are, is a product of where you shop.

Hmm

Mm-hmm.

where you love to eat, the wines that you love to drink, the vacation spots that you go to again and again. It's like this solar system of details and they are orbiting around you. So we gotta figure out what's in that solar system.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (15:1.233)

Wow. Yeah. I like that solar system analogy because it is. No, but it's the way you if you think about it, all that stuff that we do is all out there. And we're you know, like I'm very brand loyal. You know, like I, you know, I joke that I would buy an Apple anything, you know, if Apple made a car or a vacuum or a blender, you know, and it's just for me that, you know, I'm very loyal to the brands that I identify with. So I can see that, you know, so if.

Kristy (15:5.399)

I'm sorry.

someone was doing an event for me, getting all that to come out, then it becomes personalized and the same.

Yeah. And we see that a lot too. It comes out in the disconnect where the couple comes to us. I want to express my personality. I saw something on your site that someone else did, and they're kind of making that into their own thing. And then when they see the physical sample of what that looks like, we'll sometimes hear things like it just doesn't feel me enough. It doesn't feel custom enough.

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (16:3.093)

Mmm.

Kristy (16:5.775)

as the creatives, like they're looking to us when they say things like that, that's our cue. It's not that we did something wrong. That's our cue to be like, we didn't dig deep enough with you. We didn't pull enough out of you. We didn't ask enough questions. So let's figure out how to make it more custom. And that may mean and often means getting them

Mmm.

to be comfortable enough to step outside of, I'm just gonna do this thing that someone else did, but with an illustration of my dog. Or an illustration of my venue. You know what I mean? So.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm. So how, when I'm going through the process with, I'm a couple hiring you, is there trends that I would see when I'm looking at your work, or is there not? Because it sounds like everything's custom. What kind of trends are you seeing right now with everyone?

Kristy (17:3.671)

I mean, with our work specifically in our style, we are definitely more of a maximalist type of aesthetic. You know, our couples are maximalist more as more when it comes visually. You know, they love mixed patterns. They love, you know, and so just that, from that perspective of us as a brand, you know, trends, I struggle with answering these type of questions.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, alright, fair.

And I think it's because and I didn't used to struggle as much even five years ago as I do now Because again our attention spans are so different and so well trained that a trend now can last for five weeks You know what I mean? And then it's off again. So I shy away from talking about trends anymore because again

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (18:1.879)

I want to understand the patterns, the long-lived patterns of our couples and their decision-making patterns. I will say this. I think it's more about the anti-trend aesthetic now. You know what I mean?

Kevin Dennis (18:8.935)

Mm-hmm.

Okay, I like this. Okay. Yeah And by when you say anti-train, it's just being different. Is that what it is or just?

Being different and just digging deep on kind of your own personal brand of your own personal brand, you know?

Yeah, well, like something I'll hear is like, hey, I'm getting married at the same place my cousin got married at, and they had this chandelier. I don't want that chandelier. So how can we make it different? And then I start trying to turn it on them and asking them, like, what do you like? And what, you know, let's forget your cousin's wedding. We know what happened there. We can do different food. You could do different linen, you know.

And the venue there is a blank slate. So it's easy to make it look different. But I'm like, let's start talking about you. So how do we get them talking about themselves? Like, it's their.

Kristy (19:5.811)

Okay. Yes. Love this question. So I think, so I'm, I'm a YouTuber and there is, there is a, there is a saying and it's show, don't tell. Right. So for me, it's all about, because visualization is very hard for a vast majority of the pop population, right? It is. So for me, it's about

Kevin Dennis (19:9.415)

Okay.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

It is. Yeah.

I'm not going to just tell you what I think we could do. I'm going to show you. I'm going to show you with my own imagery. I'm going to sketch. I'm going to ask you to show me something on your phone. And it's all about show, show. Less conversation when you're in the brainstorming, brain dump mode of, OK, what can we do that's different with the chandelier, like you just said. We need to show, show. It should be all about the visual when we're communicating it.

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Kristy (20:4.011)

of junction points in the decision-making process. Less talk, more show.

Kevin Dennis (20:9.086)

And that's probably where a lot of couples miss the boat, is they're not being visual, they're just trying, they know they need a photographer and they don't know why, but they know they need it. They know they need, like for you, they know they need stationary, they gotta tell people when, where, and how and why, and what to get there. And so it's just...

Mm-hmm.

And even a step further, they know with us, they know they love stationary. They know that stationary is a priority, but even so, they still can have such a struggle, a difficult time figuring out how to connect all of these dots into something that ultimately is almost purely visual.

Mm-hmm.

And now it's something that just popped in my head while you were talking about it. It's like we live in this paperless world now and I feel like people when they get paper, it feels more magical than it used to. Yeah, so I think creating a piece that is even more about yourselves is more important today than it ever has been.

Kristy (21:3.459)

Absolutely. Yes.

Yes, I feel like because there's so many conversations, you know, years ago, a stationery dying and da and certain stationaries dying. Yeah. And has died. But, you know, bespoke, highly custom. There's even more leverage, visual leverage with those type of pieces. It's actually very exciting. Yeah.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Wow, that's amazing. So, all right, we've talked about all kinds of different things, but why do you feel it's important for a couple to add their own touches to their wedding day?

I mean, why is it important to love the clothing you leave the house in every morning? You know, because you don't wanna sit through your entire day feeling like you're tugging at something and it's scratching and it just doesn't feel like it fits. Right? You don't wanna look back on that day and have that, like, I use this story all the time.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

My I got married in 2000. Oh my God. And I have that one thing that like to this day is like an itch in my soul. Right? And it was like it was my wedding. It was my wedding cake. It was my awful wedding cake and I knew it wasn't me and I knew that I didn't put attention into it and I knew that it was going to be a disappointment. So.

Okay.

Oh, and what is it? Can you share it?

Oh my god.

You know, the reason that you want to invest time in learning how to make these types of decisions is so you don't have that itch in your soul 23 years later.

I was gonna say, wow, 23 years ago and you're still upset about the wedding cake.

Yeah, now I redeemed I redeemed because when we had our 10 year renewal, I hired Sylvia Weinstock to do our cake. And I'm so glad I did. It was, yeah, anyhow, but yeah.

Kevin Dennis (23:9.217)

Oh did you really good for you? And that was amazing. Oh yeah. Now random question, was the cake, the original, the OG cake, was it good at least? Oh okay. I was just curious. So it didn't look good, it wasn't you, and it didn't even taste good.

I don't remember. I don't think so.

It was just tainted with my lack of everything. It could have tasted like the best thing ever, but...

I can, well I got married a few years after you. I got married in 08, but there's the one thing that kind of still haunts me a little bit, is brown was all the thing, and so I wore a brown tuxedo. And so, and it's funny, because it was all the thing, and I'm like, oh, I'm gonna be different and wear brown, and now that I look back in the photos, I was like, what the, was I, you know, like, it's just like, classic's classic, and it always, you know, it's timeless. Like, where I really dated myself right then and there, in my photos, so.

HAHA

Yeah.

Kristy (24:2.805)

Yeah.

Kristy (24:6.431)

Well, you know. Now, but don't be scaring folks to making bold decisions.

No, no, you need to make bold decisions, but just not ones that are brown. No, I'm just using it. Yeah. All right. So, what do you want couples to know about stationary? What do we want to leave them with?

No brown. Yeah, no brown.

You know, we touched on this before. We are in such a magical time for weddings in so many ways because we're coming out of an era that so many of us don't wanna remember. And we are, and that era just shifted weddings forever.

Hmm

But in beautiful ways, we've gotten back to the heart and soul of celebration. And like I mentioned, like paper now, the tangibles are so much more powerful and that is incredibly exciting. So do you need to spend whatever a fortune is in your brain on stationery? No. But should you leverage the power of really strong, thoughtful, mindful decisions with your stationery?

Mm-hmm.

Kevin Dennis (25:1.533)

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Absolutely, because they're going to have so much more impact now.

Yeah, I really I 100% agree with you. There's it's just it's very magical when you get something in the mail that's not a obviously a bill or whatever, you know, but it just you and you're touching it and it's and the paper feels nice and you're like, wow, and you know, people really went, you know, all out to get to that point. So. All right. So Christie, we like to get a friend behind you coming to visit you. But your cat make it making it making it. Is it a he or she?

Okay.

Yeah. Yep.

Well, that's a complicated question. It's a he, it's a he, but her name is Friedebel Catlow. His name is Friedebel Catlow. He's gender fluid because we didn't know when we named, yeah.

Okay?

Kevin Dennis (26:4.261)

Okay.

It's fair. There's a lot. I think there's a lot of animals named that way. Anyway, we love to ask our guests, what is your favorite part of the wedding?

Making you think.

My favorite part of the wedding is, gosh, I think my favorite part of the wedding, oh, there's so many.

I agree. I have so many too. And I feel like it's changed for me as I become a dad too. So, you know.

Yeah, OK, I still think it's pretty classic. It's just that moment, you know, the Steel Magnolias, right? Again, I'm aging, dating myself, OG myself. But that if I remember correctly, like the doors were opened at the chapel and like you felt like this collective gasp. As the merrier started walking down the aisle and for me, that is still just fire.

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

Kevin Dennis (27:8.489)

That's magical. I agree. That's still a magical moment. That's a very like, you can't repeat that moment. You know what I'm saying? It's very natural. It happens. I really love that. So.

Yeah.

now. It's so good. There's this like communal emotion explosion happening in that in that space. It's wonderful. Yeah.

I agree. So, all right, Christy, you're amazing. How do we get in touch with you?

Oh my gosh, so you can find me and my team on Instagram at momental. I am on TikTok, the momentals. I haven't been on there a lot, but there's a lot of funny content on there. So maybe check it out. Momentaldesigns.com, of course. And, you know, if you want to learn how to paint watercolor, just look for Christy, the painter, just search me anywhere and you can find me. Oh, yeah, watercolor, baby. I mean, it's the basis of everything we do at momental.

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Oh, I'm intrigued now. No, do you do the-

Kristy (28:0.351)

Oh, that good for you. That's amazing. Good for you. You can open up in our town they have a where it's called something Pat. I don't know you go drink wine and paint and yeah, people I'm like, yeah, good for you. Is that is that our drink of choice? Alright, so for inviting Christie to the wedding, we got to make sure we have tequila. And we got to make sure we have that magical door opening moment and then

Paint and sip. I always say I ain't going to do no paint and sips unless I'm sipping tequila.

Yes, absolutely.

I think Kristi's gonna be happy. So anyway, Kristi, I can't thank you enough for being here talking to us about Stationary. I'm sure there was more that we could have covered. We could probably bring you back. We won't talk about trends, I learned the hard way. I do agree with you though when it comes to trends. That is kind of a bad word because why do you wanna, I mean, we start seeing things, but I hate the color of the year, I hate all that stuff. I don't know why.

Very happy.

Thank you.

It's crazy. I want to say this. Hopefully this can this can make it in. So there is a trend going around. It started on TikTok and then it went into Instagram. It was that Wes Anderson sound bite. And and it was like this kind of Wes Anderson music. And then everybody was like, what if my ba were a Wes Anderson film? And I think that is such a perfect example of how short lived trends are now.

across industries because that was so powerful. You had people, whoa, a Wes Anderson wedding, a Wes Anderson, you know, Star Wars scene, like, and now it's already dying, you know? So yeah, it's a tough one. Yeah. Okay.

Yeah.

Gone. Yeah.

That is a tough one, but we're not going to talk about it anymore. All right, Christy, I again can't thank you enough for being here sharing your knowledge with all our listeners. We really appreciate it and we hope to have you back again soon. Thank you.

Kristy (30:2.827)

Yeah.
