In honor of the winter weather

These wedding invitations are at the printer as we speak and will be delivered during the storm via courier. Yay for not having to leave the house on days like this! We're using a fun pearlescent cardstock and metallic silver vellum for these winter themed invitations. I'll even be adding a little "bling" on the vellum overlay as well. Excited to see the final product! Now if only real snow was as fun and beautiful as these invitations...

Simply Elegant Wedding Invitations

This post is a little past due since this wedding was in May, but these are timeless and seasonless invitations. The paper was a natural white shimmer cardstock printed in metallic gold ink and all were nestled nicely in a pocketfolder wrapped with an antique gold ribbon and topped with a nice monogram card. I haven't seen any pictures from the wedding itself, but I heard that it was very elegant! Liz and Andy, I wish you the best on your journey together and it truely was a pleasure working with you both!

Green is in this fall for my Omaha Brides

Green is definitely the color of choice for another one of my brides this fall. Using a fun swirl damask pattern, this couple has a gorgeous invitation package that went out to their guests. Matt and Michelle were fantastic to work with and they took on the assembly all on their own! With the compliments flying in, their wedding is sure to be a big hit! Thanks Matt and Michelle for choosing me to help you make your day so memorable!

Fun Fall Wedding

A really great friend of mine is getting married next month and we couldn't be more thrilled with how her invitations turned out. We tried out a vendor I hadn't used before so we could print all digital at a decent price. Jessica is so brave for being my guinea pig! She added a lime green ribbon to the real things and I just got mine in the mail yesterday! Thanks Jessica and Casey for letting me get so crazy with these! Your wedding is going to be a blast and we can't wait to share in your special day!

Wedding Samples 8.22.08

Molly & Eric's Wedding

Erin's Wedding Shower

Marcia & James Wedding

Chris & Lindsey's Wedding

These invitations were mailed in a square clear envelope and
had pink/silver wedding confetti inside of it. There was a
big pink ribbon tied in a bow through the hole in the top.

Amber & Eric's Wedding

Natalie & Deric's Wedding

Chevonne & Jeff's Wedding

These invitations were put into a hot pink pocket folder. The
bride tore the edges all the way around the main invitation to give
it a rough white border all the way around. The round label sealed
the pocket folder closed and was mailed in a white announcement envelope.

Kim & Michael's Wedding

Molly & Matthew's Wedding

The first design that I did for this bride was a seal-n-send type of
invitation. She changed her mind and went with a more standard layout
that you can see below. This design had a perforated RSVP postcard
as well as a label designed to seal it closed.

The design that this bride used had a thin red ribbon tied through the
holes on the invitation in a knot. She used the same matching
ribbon/knot on the program. (Photos to come)
