Megan + Greg

The daughter of one of my favorite customers got married to the love of her life, and they made every effort to make sure the invitations (and the wedding) were a perfect example of who they are as a couple, right down to the surprise after-hours hot wing bar that the mother of the bride planned as a surprise for the groom. I like that they kept the invitation colors duo-tone, using only Tiffany blue and white to keep it feeling crisp and clean.

One of the reasons pocket fold invitations are so popular is that they allow several enclosure cards to be neatly stacked in the pocket, which creates not only a handy packet of information for the guests, but a visually pleasing invitation as the headings sit evenly-spaced above one another, announcing details of the reply, reception, and directions and accommodations.

Grace’s First Communion

3 Comments

Grace is one of three lovely sisters for whom I’ve had the pleasure of creating some pretty special announcements and invitations, ranging from birth announcements to First Communion invitations. We took a more traditional feminine approach with this particular invitation, using the palest of pinks and ivory to create a softer feel, and paired it against a chocolate brown backing to coordinate with the mocha ink, adding a delicate, simple cross at the top. This invitation would also make a lovely baptism announcement.
