Need A Business Name For Custom Handmade Invitations

Posted by Anonymous on 7/31/2008 at 6:18 PM ET 250 Points
I am starting up a side business from my home. I am making custom handmade invitations for weddings and parties. My business also includes handmade programs, favor cards, and anything else that needs to be created and printed for a wedding. I print and create everything from my home. I thought about incorporating my wedding date, 7-14-07 as well as my name Dorete Azevedo-Sousa such as my initials, but I wanted something creative and fun. I've thought of "creations from the heart" but that is already taken. Any suggestions?

    "Dorete's Handmade Invitations" is a good straight forward start. If something more creative is ownable as a brand, perhaps it would work as well.

    my two cents

    I was hoping for something a little bit more broad, because I do also do programs and favor tags and pretty much anything that can be printed.

    I like the Paper and Lace
    as well as the Notes as Unique as You

    that's a good start. Maybe something besides the words "lace" & "notes"?

    7-14 is a valentine and a half...

    Valentine and Half might make a good brand

    How about: Do-Re-Paper, or Do-Re-Invitation, or Do-Re-My-Notes, etc. (Do-Re as the start of your name, which leads into a natural logo, and easy tagline tie-in).

    Jay, that is pretty creative, I do like those, except when I look at the names, to me it makes it sound like I'm redoing the projects. But I love the creativity in using my name.

    Phil, the reasoning behind using my wedding date, was because I seen someone else use thier wedding date as their business name, but spelt out, and their business is pretty similar to what I'm doing.

    Also, I think being a "brand" isn't quite what I'm looking for. I'm just looking for a simple, fun and creative business name.

    Thanks for all your help!

    I'm still brainstorming names for my business. Nothing has jumped out at me just yet. I'm trying to think of combinations of the suggestions of everyone that is helping me out until I come up with the perfect one. If anyone has any more input, I'll keep this post open for a few more days.

    I like the suggestions that Mikee has given, I'm pretty much trying to brainstorm off of those the most.

    Thanks for all of your help!

    How about incorporating words like: Silver (my favorite color), believe, wish, & dream?

    NovaHammer, I like your suggestions.

    Thanks for all your help!

    Thank you to everyone that has tried to help me out. I'm going to use all the suggestions to my advantage and hopefully soon I will decide on a firm name. Thanks!
