It's All About the Visual

Met with one of our favorite brides again today, Aimee, who is getting married on July 18, 2009.
Aimee chose our two-truffle box and clear bags of goodies for the children attending the reception. She was quite certain of the bow she wanted on her truffle box because she saw a picture in a magazine of a favor box that resembled a gift. The difference between her packaging and her picture was about the size and shape. The box in the picture is quite a bit bigger and square. The two-truffle box is a rectangle.
Meg and I spent Sunday tieing and re-tieing bows and ribbon to try to get Aimee's desired results, but we were not happy how they were turning out. Just too much bows and ribbons for such a small box.
Aimee has come to know and trust us so she was willing to come in today to view other options. We put 4 boxes together with different variations of ribbon, and we found a great solution that will make us all happy. None of the original ribbons are involved, but the old glue gun will be very busy!
We firmly believe in the power of the visual. Describing is not enough for either the bride or for us. It leaves too much room for error. Now Aimee is comfortable with the changes, and we've incorporated her vision into the practical side of the creation.
Of course, with gourmet chocolates, tasting comes first. We're just happy that we can put as much time and attention into our packaging as we do into our mouth-watering truffles.
