What's We're Working On: Angela & Brian's Wedding Invitations

We just received the most lovely note from our bride Angela & her parent and wanted to share with you:

Elaine,

The invitations came and are absolutely beautiful! You really do an amazing job--I now understand what your other customers meant when they wrote in their reviews about not wanting to send them out because they'd rather just stare at them. Thank you so so much. [My parent and I] are 100% satisfied. Thanks again! You have truly helped make our wedding all the more special with the beautiful invitations.
Angela, Ann & Jim

We started when Angela shared her inspiration board with me:

Isn't it so pretty? I LOVE it. So I suggested the Blush Pink Repossee Pattern from Anna Griffin created for Envelopements. We put it together with Tourmaline Pink, & Chanpagnium to create the most beautifully stunning invitation suite complete with Toumaline-lined Champagnium envelopes. We printed each of her 299 guests' addresses on the outer envelopes to give them that special touch. These pictures really don't do the justice at all. They are very sparkly and are just breathtaking.

What We're Working On: 1/20/10 Courtney & Jon's Wedding Invitations

We shipped out these lovely invitations last week, but just now have the time to share them with you! Courtney started by picking out the Starfish and Seahorse invitation. She wanted a very laid back invitation, so we changed the fonts to reflect her oceanfront wedding.

We also reduced the size of her pocketfold to a 4x6 since she only needed to include an rsvp card.

She decided on a really cute "yes/no" verbage for her rsvp as well. The choices were:

___ Yes! Save ___ beach chairs for us!

___ No! We hate to fly!

I thought that the wedding stamps available thru the usps looked perfect on her rsvp envelopes.

We finished up by creating custom labels for the outer envelopes that included her guests' addresses. This can really save time in the end instead of hand addressing each envelope. They looked great too, because they aren't your plain old Avery labels from the office store. These are actually the same shimmery White Micah stock used for her invitation that was run through a sticker machine to make a label. They create a really stunning effect.

What We're Working On: 1/19/10 Jacqueline & Omur's Wedding Invitations

We were thrilled to create these wedding invitations for our lovely bride Jacqueline in Australia. She is our was our very first aussie bride, however, we know have several of them on the books. Jacqueline's invitations shipped this past weekend, but we couldn't help to share them with you.

She chose the Cute Beach House Wedding Invitation design and just made a few slight adjustments to it. First, we changed the dark Rubelite pink color to a sweet light pink color called Tourmaline. We also did away with the pocket & added white wrap labels on the outer envelopes which we addressed with her guests' addresses. This all made for a very cute piece.
