Are you team gold or team silver? It's easy to agr Are you team gold or team silver? It's easy to agree that edge painting is gorgeous either way! These two custom invitation suites feature metallic edge painting, but you can also choose a bright hue (like hot pink or sapphire blue) to add a pop of color to your invitations!⁠

Tying a few pretty bows 🎀⁠ .⁠ I love postin Tying a few pretty bows 🎀⁠

I love posting time-lapse videos - let's be honest, they're more fun to watch! - but they're deceptive. Even though you know the video is sped up, it's hard to tell how much. So I wanted to share one in real time in case you were thinking about assembling your own invitations.⁠
It took me about 1 minute to stack the pieces, wrap the ribbon, and tie 1 bow. I was going a little slower than normal to make it easier to see what was going on, but it still takes time! And if you've never done it before, it will probably take longer.⁠
So if you're tackling any part of your invitation assembly, make sure to give yourself plenty of time! (At least double the amount you think you need is a safe estimate)⁠

Madison said "very very thick paper is a must" for Madison said "very very thick paper is a must" for her wedding stationery, so very very thick is what we did! The invitation was printed on 4-ply museum board, and when you have a piece of paper with edges like that you have to add a little gold edge painting.⁠

It's common to want to cross "stationery" off your It's common to want to cross "stationery" off your wedding to-do list once the invitations are finished, but there is so much more to your wedding paper! Think about all the items you'll need on the big day: table number, escort cards, menus, signs, programs . . .  Let's give them the same attention as your invitation suite so your stationery is flawless from start to finish.⁠
The best time to get started on day of stationery like this? I like to begin about the time you mail your invitations. This lets us finish up the design just in time for your RSVPs to start rolling in, and then you're not rushing around at the last minute to finalize everything!⁠
