JESS & MIKE | WEDDING FAVORS

Custom wedding favors are always a great addition to anyone's wedding day.  They are also a great opportunity to get super creative.  Jess wanted to do a custom koozie for her favors and she wanted to incorporate a quote that she had found and loved: "all you need is love and the beach" (so true!).  We wanted to keep the koozie's in theme with the rest of Jess & Mike's wedding stationery (we created their invitations too!) but we also wanted to design something that was a little more fun and celebratory.  What we came up with is this hand lettered and illustrated design, printed with metallic gold ink on a navy blue koozie - with a custom thank you tag to boot!

JESS & MIKE | WEDDING INVITATION SUITE

Jess & Mike are getting married this fall in Rehoboth Beach, DE.  Jess wanted to keep her, what we have dubbed "Pacific Blue", color theme in mind throughout all of her stationery.  And she didn't want anything to feel too overly "beachy".  If you'll recall, we created their Save The Dates just a few months ago with all of this information in mind.  We kept that theme rolling with their invitation suite.  So many charming details went into this suite - the gold foil, the hand drawn illustration of the blowing beach grass, the hand water colored map of the days events, the hand torn edges on every card and the package all tied together with gold rope and a gold wax seal.  All of these details made for one gorgeous suite.  It is light, airy, elegant, beachy (but not too beachy!), and most importantly, completely unique.

In my opinion - these photos don't do it justice.  I hope you get to see it in real life one day!

Pro Tip: we used metallic gold hot glue sticks instead of sealing wax for this suite.  Why?  For a few reasons, but the most important being that sealing wax is very brittle and can break easily, especially when the USPS is involved.  Also, we didn't want the wax to rub off any color on the RSVP card below.  So, we used hot glue sticks instead and it worked like a charm!
