LAURA & MATT'S VALLEY FORGE CASINO WEDDING

Blush was a huge theme this wedding season.  Add a bit of metallic gold ink and it really doesn't get any better than that!  

Laura and Matt were looking for a wedding invitation that was simple yet elegant. I wanted to make sure that I captured both of those elements while making the design unique and memorable.  What we ultimately came up with is this light blush watercolor design with some hand painted splashes of metallic gold ink.  These invitations were printed in house and each was splattered with gold by hand in my studio.  This little touch of metallic really made these invites stand out!

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!
