Yes I know, it's not even Halloween yet - let alon Yes I know, it's not even Halloween yet - let alone Thanksgiving - but if you're planning on sending save the dates in the next few months, why not make it a Christmas card / save the date?⁠
Or what better way to celebrate your first married Christmas, than with a Christmas card showing off your wedding photos.⁠

Unique, out of the ordinary invitations are great Unique, out of the ordinary invitations are great and sooo much fun to design, but I'll always have a sweet spot in my heart for a classic and traditional design. There's a reason some things never go out of style - whether it's a little black dress, the perfect shade of red lipstick, or a perfectly typeset letterpress invitation, they all have a timeless aesthetic that will look classy, not dated, 20 years from now.�⁠

Incorporating a bride’s color palette into her w Incorporating a bride’s color palette into her wedding invitations has become one of my favorite puzzles to solve! There are so many ways to combine colors through the various pieces in an invitation suite, and something as simple as using a colored envelope for the RSVP card can have a huge impact on the overall look.⁠

The prettiest navy and white invitation suite 😍 The prettiest navy and white invitation suite 😍⁠
Clare and Daniel's stationery for their Essex wedding turned out absolutely gorgeous- proof that there is nothing boring about a classic invitation suite. ⁠
Crisp navy letterpress on soft white cotton paper, with just the right amount of personal touches (like that custom illustration of their rehearsal dinner venue and the hand calligraphy by @madebymeer) ⁠
