Custom Peony Invitation for Chelsey and Jared

Chelsey fell in love with the custom peony themed stationery suite I created for Angela last fall, and requested an invitation design with a similar look and feel.

The circular monogram featured the couple's initials and wedding date, with a lovely hand drawn peony in the background. Chelsey was looking for a traditional invitation design with bunches of peonies added in for a romantic touch.

Thanks again, Chelsey!

Real Weddings: Angela and Brandon

I'm so excited to show off this gorgeous Real Wedding today! I worked with Angela last year to create a custom stationery suite, featuring a peony themed monogram and elegant calligraphy inspired script, for her November wedding.  I posted about the designs in early December, and when Angela saw the post, she was sweet enough to send over some lovely photos of how the designs turned out!

Angela chose to name each of her tables after a different winery! To fit the theme, she used corks to hold up the table cards.

Custom Wedding Stationery for Angela and Brandon

Angela ordered a set of custom stationery for her November wedding, featuring a peony themed monogram and elegant calligraphy inspired script.

First up is a guestbook sign, featuring a mix of script and serif fonts, with Angela and Brandon's monogram displayed at the top.

Next are the custom table cards! Instead of numbers for each table, Angela chose to use the names of different wineries!

Their custom program design was a two sided flat card, with their monogram and short thank you note on the front.

Then the back of the program listed all the members of their bridal party.

Thanks so much, Angela!

Real Weddings: Julie and Chris

This "real weddings" post is looong overdue!  Earlier this year, I designed a custom invitation suite for Julie and Chris.  Julie was so sweet, and sent me a copy of their invitations so I could see how everything turned out.  Well, I received the invitation, ooh-ed and ahh-ed over it a bit, took some pictures, and then promptly forgot about them until I was looking through my camera a few days ago!
Without further delay, here they are!

And the invite, rsvp card, and accommodations card, all together:

Thanks again, Julie!  Sorry it took me so long to get these photos up, but the invitations turned out fantastic, and I'm so glad to be able to show them off!
