What to Know Before You Order

Here is what you should know before you order your invitations:

1. How many invitations do you need. Remember, the number of invitations is not the same as the number of guest you are expecting. Families and couples should receive only one invitation.

2. The date, time and location of the wedding ceremony and reception.

3. Your RSVP by date and the address you would like them to be sent to.

4. Do you need additional inserts such as a direction card, reception card, itinerary card, accommodation card and/or registry card?

5. Your wedding color palette and theme.

6. Your wedding invitation budget.

Rainey and Chris

One of the best things about designing custom wedding invitations is being able to choose the exact colors you want to match your wedding. We have 100's of color swatches to choose from. Our couples' invitations will be as unique and personal as their wedding!

This ocean blue and teal invitation is a 5x7 panel invite with a 3" pocket on the back to house the RSVP postcard. All of our 5x7 panel invitations can have a pocket added on the back to hold all of your inserts. The invitation is topped off with a teal organza ribbon knot and was sent in a crisp white linen envelope.

We just loved the fun colors on this invitation set. The invitation is a 5x7 Envelopment Pocketfold in wasabi, rubelite metallic and white linen cardstock. The set also included a 2-sided Wedding Program in sunstone metallic cardstock, white linen paper and hot pink polka dot organza. Along with the program we made the couple Menu Cards in rubelite metallic cardstock, white linen paper and lime green polka dot organza.

This 7x7 Envelopment Pocketfold in black linen and garnet metallic cardstock was one of our first custom designs. The invitation packet included the Envelopment Pocketfold, custom envelope, wedding information card, RSVP card with envelope and a small registry card.

Marcy's Damask Wedding Reception
















These are my favorite items again - they are just what I would do for myself. The graphic was important to Marcy and every piece was designed to have the optimal amount of the modern damask graphic showing. From the simple damask programs and menus, to the damask table numbers, placecards and even damask candy buffet labels, the graphic covers everything. Her seating chart and unity candle also are covered with the graphic. Marcy even included a Candy Buffet table sign, signs directing guests to the cocktail lounge and Bar Menu with Married Cocktails and drinks. Marcy loved the graphic so much it is even going to be on her cake in cream and black fondant by Christine's Cakes! Funny enough, Marcy debated about having me make her wedding invitations - she almost made them herself. I feel so lucky that I got to work with her on these amazing pieces.

I'm in NYC!!!!

It is cold and rainy, but I had an amazingly successful show. I found a new line and signed up with them on the spot at the show. I'll have brand new colors, pockets, envelopes and adorable boxed note cards. But I'm super excited because now I'll have wine bottle wedding invitations, Cigar Box invitations, and even custom made DVD wedding invitations, plus so much more. Over the next months, I'll try and highlight some of the new products!

Marcy's Booklet Invitation














This invitation set was actually finished weeks ago, but it was another Molly Booklet invitation and I couldn't post it until the invitation was "released". These invitations are designed from outer envelope down to the very back of the invitation. Marcy's Grand Traverse Resort wedding has a guest list of over 600 guests and they wanted to impress. Her wedding has taken on a very subtle tropical theme and I used a different graphic on all of the pieces for interest. The custom wedding stamps on the RSVP postcard and outer envelope are two of my favorites. And the envelope liners are an amazing addition.

Suzanne's Extras








My only wedding next weekend with placecards instead of a seating chart. And Suzanne has new programs! I've been dying to do a program that slips into a pocket and I love this color combination. Table numbers and donation cards that will be wrapped in napkins completed her set.

Lindsay's Extras





I feel like I've know Lindsay forever and here it is the wedding weekend already. I did her seating chart, table numbers and a memory candle. The color of the table numbers shown here isn't the ultimate color. We changed them to white because the color just couldn't be matched correctly. But the seating chart is perfect. ;)

Sara's Extras








Sara got nearly everything I offer. Seating Chart, table numbers, programs, candles - memory and unity, and various signs. One unique thing about their wedding is a scripture theme and each table number has a different scripture. Then I made a large sign that will be framed and hang by the head table and then ultimately in their home.

My HELL Weekend




I do not know what I was thinking - obviously I wasn't. But I have 6 weddings next weekend. Gayle's extras include this pretty purple seating chart and matching table numbers with menu.
