These lovely real (yes, real!) wood invitations (and other handlettered wood elements) I designed were recently featured on Style Me Pretty as part of an editorial shoot I collaborated on with some other talented vendors. What a perfect way to bring a bit of the outdoors and a natural, organic feel into your wedding. I packaged them in mailable boxes (with calligraphied addresses and vintage postage, of course!) and tied of the invitations (and the other paper details) with silk hand dipped mustard yellow ombre ribbons. The whole set is just so lovely, I was so pleased with the final product.
The wood invitations were stamped in white ink with a custom made rubber stamp. I also incorporated kraft paper into the set with a flat cream cardstock as a contrasting texture, color.
…And can we talk about the bridal gown?! I am in LOVE with that dress!
Here is the entire paper suite for the shoot… Are you looking for custom invitations and coordinating pieces for your own wedding or event? Let’s chat!
Earlier this week I was featured on Style Me Pretty with some of my lovely friends. I was over the moon with every detail of this inspiration shoot, shot at Bob’s Corn Maze and Pumpkin Farm. It was shot by my incredibly talented friend Chantal Andrea, seriously her photography eye is amazing. It was styled and all the floral was done by my new sweet, lovely, talented friend Rachel from Finch and Thistle Events, if you are looking for a florist/event stylist book her, I would unreservedly trust her with my wedding…(and that’s saying a lot)… The food was provided by a local Seattle favorite Ravishing Radish and yes, it was as yummy as it looks. The makeup (and model styling) by Jenny Bowker was also so beautiful. What a fun day with some talented professionals….
And of course all the paper goods were designed by me. I was finally able to properly showcase the beautiful white calligraphy I have been playing around with. Also, I love the details like the plaid on the back of all the paper pieces…it’s those small details that are so important. Check out some more of my work from the shoot below. Like what you see? Contact me, I would love to chat with you about your project!
Our Sweet Day in May was featured on the ultimate wedding blog, Style Me Pretty today! To see more photos of our wonderful day visit the post. I planned and designed all of the details myself, including the letterpress invitations, so much fun! I also can’t say enough good things about our wonderful photographer, Yvonne Wong, seriously she’s incredible. The best part of the day though? Marrying my best friend!
Throughout the month of May I will be talking about the details of our wedding, where I found many of our details and the inspiration behind them!
