Finally... Our invitation suite!

I've waited and waited to finally be able to share our own invitation suite! I am so pleased with how the designs came out and was ECSTATIC to finally be able to send them them out. We wanted simple & sweet invitations and I think that's exactly what we got. I've always been a fan of pocket folders and think they are the best, most attractive way to secure the various pieces within the envelope. So first things first was picking out those. I also knew I wanted the pocket folders to serve as the cream color and use the grey and soft rosey pink for the invitations, so when put it all together you get the perfect feel for the color scheme of our wedding. And we all know the absolute obsession Joel & I have for all things stripe, right? So what better of a design element than stripes for the invitation? Overall we are SO so happy with the outcome and it was so fun sending them out into the world.
























I'm not going to lie I LOVE seeing our names together like this. It was so surreal to actually be working with my own name on an invitation... and to see my handsome husbands right next to it... best feeling ever.






The info/directions card is by far my favorite. I love the typography layout and the cut off alignment. OH, and how the pink stripes remind me of the Sugar Bowl : ) Plus that funky map on the back is just real cute. (Is it ok to praise your own invitations that you made? Sorry if it's not.)


































And of course these were beautifully printed by our favorite D&L Press!
