wedding recap part deux

4) postage on the invites. honestly a waste of money. but i did it pretty cheaply by buying uncancelled stamps on ebay. still have a lot of bizarre stamps left.



the real envelopes


my inspiration

also really loved a certain calligrapher's style and got my best friend to copy it. it is pretty wild looking i guess but i looooved them.

5) invitations!
here's what i came up with. designed and had them letterpressed. used a marker to color the edges, it is expensive to have it done and it looked just fine.


my invites


my obsession


i guess i kind of captured the feel.


6) my backyard rehearsal dinner looked just like this. i can't find a pic but i swear it did.

Oh my gosh! Your wedding invite inspiration was my wedding invite inspiration (in terms of font)! That's what we based our font layout on. I downloaded a free template and typed it up so our graphic designer could get an idea of what I wanted! Geesh...sometimes with the three of us, it's like we're the same person. : O )

PS. I TOTALLY love the calligraphy! Beautiful!
