i just love how unique these are! this couple wanted to incorporate their photo into the invitation but in super cool way that incorporated their rich fall colors of copper, orange, red and cream. they took their photo and created a cool silhouette design from it. i designed the rest around that… continuing with the simple modern look, i designed icons to help organize the rsvp card which required responses for several parts of the event. the design was finished with a layered tag on the cover of the pocket. the result: a super unique and modern design that truly captured the essence of the couple and their event.

these are so fun! a boarding pass style save the date is the perfect way to let your guests know they need to pack their bags and are in for a fun seaside event! this couple took it a step further and incorporated a super fun picture of them right after they got engaged! they were finished with coordinating wrap labels with custom travel stamps. love these! stay tuned for their passport wedding invitations!

while the envelope is the most anticipated item at an awards show, a good amount of people forget about the envelope and its importance as part of the invitation. keep in mind it is the first thing that your guests will see and it sets the tone for the rest of the invitation and can be just as stunning if dressed up just right! consider having a coordinating design printed along with your return and guest address printing, or include the ever popular custom wrap label—these are a real show stopper and all the rage right now!
another great way to show your envelopes some love, is to have a custom stamp designed that coordinates with the rest of the ensemble. this will not only look great but makes for a really pulled together look and is the perfect finishing touch!

hop on the assembly line! if you are the crafty type or just want to save some cash, ordering your invitations unassembled is a great idea! what does this mean exactly? good question! and here is the answer:
unassembled= you receive your invitations printed and cut down to the final size but in separate pieces that need to be “assembled”.
the amount of assembly required ultimately depends on your unique design. if we determine in our initial discussions that you will be assembling, i can tailor the design to just how much assembly you are comfortable with…anything from a couple paper layers, to tying bows, adding crystals and more!
should you decide to go this route, you will still receive one fully assembled invite as a guide and as always, any advice you need! 
{ tip } invite some friends over to help, and make it an assembly party!

a super fun invitation with a simple design and a modern take on summer colors. three layers give this panel style design some extra detail as does the belly band and layered tag. the inserts are neatly held in place on the back of the panel by the belly band. it is finished with a coordinating wrap label.
