Shannon & Michael's Custom Pocketfold Invitations

Shannon's invitations are soooo pretty. This is another current fave... I made these a few months ago, but am just now getting around to blogging them. For her invitations we used a light blue pocketfold with a light green metallic accent. Her subtle coral graphics and custom monogram bellyband with raffia really set the tone for her elegant beach wedding.

Avi & Nathaniel's Custom Pocketfold Invitations - Hawaii Destination Wedding

OK, every once in a while an invitation comes along that I fall in love with. This is one of them. These invitations are just sooooo gorgeous in person- they feature a khaki canvas pocketfold with a chocolate canvas and custom monogram bellyband with raffia accents. The main invitation matt and the background for the monogram on the bellyband are made of Japanese Cane or Basho Paper. I absolutely love this paper!

Evelyn & Nick's Custom Passport Invitations for Moon Palace Destination Wedding

Evelyn wanted a traditional-looking passport invitation with a twist... she wanted to incorporate a damask print into the RSVP card. I love how it turned out - totally unexpected, yet sets the tone for her Moon Palace Destination Wedding.

Lindsay and Ryan - Custom Boarding Pass Save the Dates

Lindsay saw Shelley & Amos' invitations and loved the colors and graphics. She wanted to do something similar for her Save the Dates to announce her upcoming wedding in Los Cabos at the Cabo Surf Hotel.

For her fun custom boarding pass invitations we used a bright white glossy stock to print the passes, then placed them in a metallic black sleeve with a metallic fuschia and mother-of-pearl bellyband. The invitation was mailed in a matching metallic fuschia envelope.

Menus, Programs and Announcements

I designed Jaymie's beautiful Pocketfold Invitations a few months ago, and we carried her blue and black/white damask theme through to the rest of her invitation stationery. Jaymie's fan programs incorporated the damask print subtley at the bottom of the fan and her menus introduced a custom married monogram to her guests. Finally, we used the same colors and graphics to create an invitation for her At-home-reception for her guests that were uable to attend her gorgeous Dreams Cancun wedding.

Check out the blog from Faber Photography of Jaymie's AHR... the cake is amazing and uses the damask print from her wedding stationery!

Custom Baby Baptism Invitations

I made these custom baptism invitations for Timothy's special day. Timothy's mom wanted to use chocolate and blue with an elegant celtic cross theme. I found a beautiful blue damask print to complement the design. The invitation was mounted on a chocolate pearlescent metallic cardstock and mailed in chocolate metallic envelopes.

Mayumi & Eric's Custom Hawaii Pocketfold Invitations

Mayumi had a gorgeous color scheme of rose pink and charcoal. For her Hawaii wedding, we wanted to do something classy and elegant with just a hint of "tropical". For her invitations I used a square pocketfold of smooth charcoal, printed her main invitation body and three inserts on a smooth white stock, layered her invitations on a pearlescent metallic rose pink cardstock and adorned the exterior of the invitation with a bellyband of metallic cardstock and black satin. A custom monogram with the couples' names, date and the pink palm tree graphic completed the look.
