April wedding invites – Cherry Blossoms

April is the month that you really know that Spring has sprung.  Cherry Blossoms scream beauty…sweet, pink, adorable little flowers…PERFECT for an April wedding!

March wedding invitations

My theme for March weddings is “Go Green”…and not just because of St Patrick’s Day :)  I am currently working on becoming a vendor for a company that makes plantable invites, notecards, & favors…but in the mean time I would like to show you my design!  It’s a simple retro tree design with paisley and brown, cream, & green shades.  Printed on recycled paper and in a gorgeous green & cream pocketfold with a metallic brown envelope.  I would accent it with a simple raffia pull at the top.  Clean, fun, & GREEN!

 

I know, I know… (February weddings)

…I am a horrible blogger (smacks self on hand).  Between internet problems and the freaky southern weather making EVERYONE sick, I am very far behind on everything it seems.  I will catch up…PROMISE!

So here is my design for February wedding (in April).  Of course the theme is love but I wanted to do something richer than simple hearts.  I did a paisley & damask invite with the chiffon overlay pocketfold…classy, elegant, different!

January wedding - my invitation design FINALLY

I would wait til the very last day of the month to get this posted but I have been so busy I haven't had time to design it...lol.

The inital colors I wanted to focus on were green and eggplant. Both colors are very rich and still have the holiday feeling...perfect for a January wedding! The first two pics I found when I googled were these two...

Notice the peacock feathers? I LOVE peacocks! So I decided there was my inspiration! I started designing! ANDDD...(drum roll please)...

Well what do you think!? I think it is stunning :) The colors of the border can be changed so that you emphasize another color. Also there are a wide variety of pocketfold colors that you could choose to compliment it...

And You know how some invitations have a sheet of vellum over them...well I think that this invitation would ROCK with a peacock feather instead, don't you!? Kinda like this...

Here are a couple more inspiration boards I found...Enjoy :)

Wedding Invitation Trends...

This years brides are not afraid of color! Bold is beautiful...and anything goes this year as far as wedding stationery goes! Brides are throwing the "traditional" white/ecru wedding invitations out the window and making it a personal affair. Many brides are opting to DIY invitations or custom made to give their weddings the personal touch. Pocket invitations and self-mailers are huge right now and can add to the color pallet. Dark chocolate is the new black and black is the new white. Ecru is boring and there is no place for it in the modern brides wedding!
