So we've only got 7 months til the wedding. It seems like just yesterday we got engaged. Where did all that time go?! I have a dress, I have a veil. We have a guest list,wedding party, venue, caterer, photog....what else do we need....Oh yes, those ominous invitations! Well, being the crazy that I am, I've decided to make my own invitations. I want them to be fun, fit with the colours, simple and really just something nice that I can send to people. Oh...and I'd like to not spend an arm and a leg or 4 months of my life making them. Simple requests, right? Well, maybe not. I've spent MONTHS looking for invitations. It's hard business. I couldn't find anything I liked. It was too simple or it didn't fit or it wasn't what I wanted. Here's some of the things I came across that were close but just not it...

It's alright..but not at all what I wanted. First thing I found when I googled "red and yellow wedding invites". |
 |
This is super cute but it was out of price range. And it's not quite right... |
 |
I liked this...in red and yellow. But not quite it. |
And then I found...
THIS!! I love it. No it's not red and yellow but it's easy enough for me to switch out the black for some nice yellow patterned paper. It's a DIY kit from the Uncommon Bride, which I believe is out of Montreal, and I'm in love. I'm going to use this as my inspiration, tweak it a bit and let 'er rip!! I'm quite excited.
I'll post pics once I've gotten a sample done. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I love them. Can't wait to see the finished product!
ReplyDeleteI really love them! Look forward to seeing them
