Shelby knew exactly what type of wedding invitation she wanted when she first emailed me; ecru panel invitations with a lilac graphic and purple printing throughout.
After the lilac illustration was created, the rest of the invitation design came together fairly quickly.
The purple envelopes add the perfect touch of color, and the response and information card inserts are held neatly together with a rich purple satin ribbon.
I worked with Niki's MOH to create these apple green and chocolate brown bridal shower invitations. It was a bit of a balance act to create an elegant formal invitation with a monogram that also fit with the bride's style, which was described to me as "hippie chic" / Anthropologie-esque...but I think we succeeded!
For design inspiration, I *happily* browsed the latest spring fashions at Anthropologie.com, and decided a bold floral pattern was a must. The pattern we chose frames a monogram of the couple's first initials, and I love that it's a feature yet also woven into the print. To balance the organic look of the pattern, I used a mix of more formal block fonts for the invitation wording.
I designed Rebekah's wedding save the date postcards to be simple and elegant with a pop of hot pink - a look that will carry over to her pocketfold wedding invitations. The postcard format is a fresh way of spreading the word to family and friends, and it saves on paper and postage costs too.
The decor theme for Janice and Jim's spring wedding is the color periwinkle. It will be used throughout the wedding, from the bridesmaid dresses to the bouquets and centerpieces. They had pictured an ecru invitation with periwinkle design, but decided they really liked the idea of using a periwinkle paper with black design, allowing the color to stand out even more.
The format and components of the invitation set are as simple as it gets - a layered panel invitation and response postcard, but it is really striking with the black floral scroll graphic that is used on both pieces.
I've had a blast creating invitations and stationery accents for Amy and Steve's upcoming wedding! For their wedding rehearsal/dinner invitations, Amy and Steve were interested in something colorful, snazzy and with a different look than any of their other wedding paper items.
We decided on a black and white z-card with a bright yellow envelope to add a punch of color. The invitation has an "Eat, Drink and Be Married" title that was designed to look like an old fashioned pub sign. A poem and invitation wording carried through the rest of the piece, along with my favorite element of the invitation...the place "setting" that was used to illustrate the theme.
