live. breathe. design.

these sweet little invitations fold up and fit nicely into an A2 envelope. the bride and groom wanted invitations that would compliment their reception venue. easy to do since they are getting married at the gorgeous Buffalo and Erie County Historical society. the bright green wrap on the exterior of the invitation pulls a pattern from the windows while the illustration on the interior is based on a railing found inside the building. the text and beautiful laid finish paper is very formal making these invitations the perfect compliment to their day!

wedding stationery tip: want custom and unique stationery for  your wedding but unsure of a design theme? using architectural elements from your ceremony or reception venue is the perfect way to tie everything together!

while catching up on my blog reading, i came across a post on the mint design blog about the work of suzy tuxen. i of course had to check out her site, a friend of mine. while browsing her beautiful portfolio i stumbled across this lovely logo and gorgeous storefront. love!

bright and crisp these invitations are perfect for the bold and bright colors of the 2010 wedding season. these invitations are put together with bright white felt paper trimmed with a black card stock and paired with a formal red lined envelope.

the fonts are traditional but the colors and vertical text add a nice modern feel. the traditional and contemporary combination is popular right now and is a great combination for today’s bride.
