Christine & Josh's Light Green Invitations

I met Christine and Josh a little over a year ago while they were in town working on their wedding plans with Kisha from Pure Ambiance. They were using green as their main wedding color and were incorporating garden elements into the reception.

Here's what we came up with -- light green metallic pocket fold with cream metallic cards, featuring a green design and brown writing.

Melissa & Keith's Beach Wedding

Melissa & Keith got married at the Jersey Shore and wanted to incorporate a starfish motif into their wedding stationery. I designed these beach-themed pocket fold invitations with a sea green and light sand color scheme.

I created the double layer tags they attached to large starfish for their place cards:

I also created the tented table numbers that incorporated the design from their invitations:

The happy couple:

Congratulations again to Melissa & Keith!

Chalkboard Baby Shower Invitations

I've designed a lot of different projects for Amanda over the years, and was thrilled when she asked me to design her sister's baby shower invitations.  She wanted a chalkboard background with a fun use of typography and also wanted to incorporate different pastel colors to keep it gender neutral.

Here's what we came up with:

We included a small business-card sized insert asking guests to bring a book instead of a card to help build up a library for baby:

For the shower, she had a tree illustration and asked everyone to leave a finger print with a shade of green ink to create a cute family tree for the nursery -- here's the sign I created:

Favors were small jars filled with pastel M&M's. The jars had a chalkboard label on the front, so she attached a stick of chalk plus my favor tags on each:

 Finally, she had cards numbered 1 - 25 and had guests pick a card at random. If the card you chose was "3", then you'd write a note that the baby would open and read on their 3rd birthday. Such a great idea!

Black Velvet Vegas Invitations

One of my favorite clients, Tiffany, asked me to design some swanky invitations for her husband's 30th birthday celebration in Las Vegas. 

We went with a black velvet book fold with a double layered metallic invitation:

The pocket on the left holds the travel info card & the rsvp postcard:

I love these Vegas inspired choices for the RSVP!

The invitation is a white metallic card with a black metallic backing (it's very subtle here):

Each invitation was wrapped with a printed band using the diamond "30" pattern:

All stacked up and ready to go!

The final invitations went into silver mailer envelopes with printed wrap around mailing labels:

Rehearsal Dinner Invitations

Stephanie requested a unique rehearsal dinner invitation that incorporated her fall colors, a diecut, and bling. Here's what we came up with:

Triple layered invitation featuring a patterned base card, a diecut copper glitter card, and an ivory metallic printed invitation layer, embellished with 4 swarovski crystals.

Construction Trucks Birthday Invitation

My son is OBSESSED with trucks. When he told me he wanted a "dump truck birthday," I couldn't say no. The invitations are flat 5" x 7" cards printed with a variety of trucks. I love the crane lifting the "3" onto the dump truck bed. These can be customized with your child's birthday number as well as their favorite color (Dietrich's happens to be orange).

Light Pink + Cream Floral Wedding

Jenn & Rob got married last August and had a classic color scheme of light pink and cream, with a floral motif that we carried throughout all of the pieces. We used grey writing to soften the look.

The invitations are a pochette (or petal fold) and are closed with a monogram square:

Enclosures included an RSVP postcard and a folded booklet of directions and accommodations:

Pink envelopes completed the look, with custom postage that I designed to match:

Large menus were created and featured stands on the backs to display on the tables:

Tented placecards matched the invitations:

Fan programs were perfect for the summer wedding:

Congratulations Jenn & Rob!

Andrew & Carly's Wedding Stationery

My cousin, Andrew, and his bride, Carly, tied the knot back in October. 

Their wedding was wonderful -- good food, great music, and excellent company.

When we talked about what they wanted for their invitations, Carly wanted to create a heart motif made using their fingerprints to create the shape, but was open to other ideas as well. I've always wanted to create this tree design and their wedding was my perfect opportunity. We incorporated the heart into the tree trunk and carried it throughout the rest of the stationery.

RSVPs incorporated meal choices for the guests:

Custom map on the back of the directions cards:

Since their colors were purple and silver, so we used different colored tents for each dinner entrée -- dark purple, light purple, silver, and a handful of off-white tents.

Tented table numbers incorporating the thumbprint heart:

Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!
