Megan & Craig's City Themed Invitations

Spring felt like it sprung weeks ago but as of Tuesday it is official! While I've been busy over the "winter" months creating many wonderful invitation designs for many wonderful couples, wedding season is just beginning for most. One of the invitation suites I have been patiently waiting to reveal is for Megan and Craig. Even though the couple will soon be eloping in the Caribbean, they still plan on celebrating with family and friends back home in June.  Here are the city-themed invitations for Megan and Craig's wedding reception. It may be hard to notice, but the pocketfold is actually shimmers!

Dr. Suess Baby Shower Invitations

As a little one, I remember the fun of reading Dr. Seuss books and watching the cartoon movies. The Lorax was one of my favorites (a lesson probably more relevant in today's society) and I love that they created a modern version of the movie. I may have to go see it! 

Dr. Seuss books will always be timeless. And, with the growth in theme-oriented baby showers and children's birthday parties, I think Dr. Seuss will be a popular choice for years to come.

I was excited when a former bride of mine, Katie, asked me to create a Dr. Seuss inspired baby shower invitation. She and her husband Brian are expecting their first child this summer and wanted a design to match the baby's nursery.  I think we did just that!

Alisha & Mark's Peacock Feather Save the Date Magnets

Alisha and Mark are planning a colorful wedding around the rich tones of the peacock feather: deep teal, various shades of green, cream and golden tones. A little fact for the day...this would be considered an analogous color combination because all of the colors are adjacent to each other on the color wheel. Analogous color schemes are often found in nature and considered to be pleasing to the eye. It's no wonder why so many people find peacocks beautiful! 

First up for Amanda and Mark are their save the date magnets. We've already begun planning on the invitations which are going to be just as full of color and beauty. I'm really excited about them!

Amanda & Kyle's Save the Date Magnets

Amanda and Kyle asked for me to create and piece together all of their wedding details, starting with the save the dates. Their design is extra special because Kyle is also a graphic designer and he lent some of his expertise (with Amanda's help of course). The two created the swirl design and monogram. I love it!

Jessica & William's Autumn Save the Date Magnets

I've probably said this before, but I love fall and fall weddings! The colors are rich and earthy, the leaves are changing colors on the trees and the weather is not too hot and not too cold. Autumn evokes a feeling of harvest and a new beginning.

This leads me to one of my fall couples: Jessica and William. They are planning their new beginning with an autumn affair at the stunning MayFair Farms, a 19th century mansion in West Orange, NJ. The couple wanted a formal design with a romantic feel to fit with their reception location. We started with save the date magnets and captured that feeling of romance, by incorporating a a few floating leaves and wispy swirls.
