Today I’m really excited to share with you the invitation suite of Amy and Forrest. Amy designed the entire package herself, using these really fun hand-cut paper letters as a centerpiece. All of the playful details were really well thought out and carried through every single item, from the invitations to the programs. And their personalities […]

I’m absolutely loving these illustrative invitations by Lydia Nichols. Not only are the illustrations great, but I haven’t seen slim-jim-sized invitations very often, and it’s nice that everything fits together in such a well-organized package. I always like to try to make invitation suites fit into some sort of container, so that guests don’t have to deal with […]

You may have caught a glimpse of these invitations a little while ago (I believe they were rounding the blogs when I was in Hawaii, and I’ve been meaning to feature them since then). But in case you didn’t, you’re in for a treat. Sara Hanks Giessen created an absolutely gorgeous invitation package — which featured a hand-bound book — for Christina and Mark, […]
It’s become a bit of a trend (a trend that I love) for newly married couples to take the idea of traditional anniversary gifts and put a modern, creative spin on them. Here’s one example. To commemorate their first year of marriage, Jerome Daksiewicz created a booklet that highlights major, minor and world events that took place over the course […]

When design student, Alan Segama sent me his work recently, I was immediately drawn to this poster. The typographic illustration was designed for his girlfriend who will soon be moving across the country — from Rhode Island to California — for a year. In addition to being a sucker for typographic prints, I’ve had long distance relationships in the past, so I know […]
These one-color, gray and white invitations by Curtis Jinkins. are anything but boring. The simple color palette allows for many variations in the typography, while still retaining the clean and elegant feel. This is just another example of a design that proves you really can do a lot with a limited palette. In case you’re interested, some other […]

So remember this tiny sneak peek I shared with you last month? I’m SO excited to finally reveal the whole project — I was lucky enough to be a contributor to the latest issue of Nonpareil Magazine! The latest issue, “A Silver Screen Soirée”, is all about weddings and events inspired by TV and film. And my team, which […]
Again I know Halloween is months away so this isn’t exactly timely. But it looks like the wedding may have been for another husband and wife design team (love that), so I had to share what else I found. Here’s a few more images, this time of the invitations, from the portfolio of Kristan Butler.
