From June with Love

Hello Blog family!
I apologize I've been away for a minute. It's just been a little crazy around the studio. Phew there were so many weddings in June.
Without further ado, I'll dive right into some invitations from June and July.

Breanna & Josh
I worked primarily with Breanna's mom on her invitations. This is another couple I never met before but fell in love with our work from the website. After consulting via email for some time, we moved right into the design phase. Breanna's invitations and wedding stationery were simple yet very classy. She wanted a bit of rhinestones on all the stattionery. The couple got married in June at a Country Club in Kentucky.

Invitations were Layered Flat cards with satin ribbon accents


Single panel menu cards


Folded Programs with ribbon accent


Tent Table cards with rhinestones



Caitlin & Josh
Caitlin was another one of our simple, classy brides and she wanted her invitations to reflect that. Her invitation was a Large Layered flat card. We completed the print with Thermography print and lined the envelopes with patterned paper. Caitlin and Josh were married in June at the Woodlands Country Club.

LeKeya & Bert
We also had the opportunity of working with a very lovely couple, LeKeya & Bert on their ceremony stationery. The couple chose invitations from a catalog but wanted us to create something nice for the day of stationery. They both really liked the stationery we did for "Brooke & Dirk". They were both very laid back and were such a joy to work with. They were married in June at the Chateau Polonez.

Courtney & Matt
Courtney was referred to us by one of our past clients - Alma & Gary. I met with Courtney and her very sweet Mom. And we began working on her invitation design. She really loved Brooke & Dirk's wedding invitations. So we created something similar yet different. Her invitations were Pocket style invitations since she had 4 enclosures. She was married in July at the breathtaking Bell Tower on 34th.

Ayesha & Chinedu's Silk Box invitations
And finally but most definitely not the least, the process of Ayesha & Chinedu's Couture Box Invitations. You may remember the post here and here about Ayesha's stationery. We completed the invitation look in Thermography print and the pick really popped with the print. Ayesha & Chinedu were married this July in Negril, Jamaica. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Since the wedding was a destination affair in Jamaica, the invitations were created using woven paper

Completed Silk Box Invitations


The Silk boxes were placed into box mailers for mailing.


We also created Menu cards and Ceremony Programs for the event. Ayesha decided to keep the ceremony stationery a bit simple.

Ok, I think I almost made up for being absent for so long with this one post :). Enjoy the week everyone!
