Tea-Length Invitations

I can do a variety of different styles of invitations... here is a birthday party invitation printed on white linen, mounted on celadon cardstock with a band of printed kraft paper. These were save-the-dates for a birthday party.

Miranda and Colin - Custom AHR (At-Home-Reception) Invitations

Miranda just had a gorgeous wedding in Cuba and DIY'd all her own invitations. So when it came time for her AHR (At-Home-Reception) she was tired of projects! She had an idea and color scheme she wanted to stay within but let me take some creative liberty. I love the end result! I used a gorgeous coral background design and incorporated a subtle starfish for the cover vellum wrap and carried the design through to the inside. I created a custom monogram with their married initial and used that as the centerpiece for the cover as well as the heading at the top of their invitation. The main invitation was layered over a charcoal pearlescent metallic cardstock, and the tea-length invitation slid into the printed vellum sleeve. A matching RSVP card slid behind the invitation.

Shelley & Amos - Tea-Length Invitations

This was a new invitation concept for me. We started with a tea-length custom invitation, matted on a metallic black cardstock and then enclosed the invitation and the two inserts in a custom printed vellum overlay folder. Then they will be mailed in a black metallic envelope addressed with a silver metallic ink. The complete look is very elegant and unique. Shelley is doing a destination wedding in Delaware on the beach and has carried her starfish theme throughout all of her plans. She is an incredible DIY (do-it-yourself) bride so I was very proud that she chose me to do her invitations!

We also made matching menus to coordinate with Shelley's invitations.

Finally, here is Shelley's custom monogram to coordinate with the entire theme.

Lisa & Max - Tea-Length Invitations

Lisa wanted a simple and elegant program for her destination wedding at Dreams Resort in Los Cabos, Mexico. She has a bright and fun color scheme of navy and canary yellow. For her programs, we did a simple tea-length program on white stock, layered on a navy metallic and adorned with a canary yellow ribbon.

Alyssa & Kareem - Tea-Length Invitations, Thank-You Notes

I had the pleasure of working on both Alyssa's announcements and thank you notes. Her fabulous Hawaii wedding definitely called for something special and out of the ordinary.

For her announcements, we used a simple tea-length metallic invitation backing and affixed her printed announcement (complete with teaser pic!) with silver brads. For her thank-yous, we went over the top and did miniature pocketfolds. These are gorgeous in person! I made a custom monogram with Alyssa & Kareem's wedding date and used this as a bellyband for the outside. A simple, printed "Thank you" was the only insert. The metallic white and aqua flowed with the rest of Alyssa's wedding theme and completed the whole look she'd carried throughout.

Congrats Alyssa & Kareem!
