Wedding Invitation Crunch Time

We got our envelopes back from the calligrapher yesterday, and now we're attempting to get them in the mail before we leave for a wedding this weekend. Our living room looks like a disaster zone! Here's a little sneak peak. We're so excited to start getting response cards back -- it's becoming real. Geez!

Calligraphy

We just received our save the dates in the mail (!!!) and we'll be addressing them and sending them out in the next few weeks. Even though I'll just be addressing the save the dates myself, I've begun to look at calligraphy options for our official invitations. Here are a few of my favorite calligraphers:

-Top photo: Feast Calligraphy - based out of Chicago, IL
-2nd photo: La Happy - based out of Seattle, WA
-3rd photo: Paperfinger - based out of Brooklyn, NY

Any other recommendations? Thanks!! xo

Minted Invitations

I love Minted. I just sent out wedding shower invitations for a party that I'm co-hosting, so now seems like the perfect time to write a little review of the company. All of the art prints, invitations, and paper goods are designed and submitted by artists, who get a cut of the profits, so the quality and design are really high.

The art prints are really affordable and suitable for hanging. We ordered this San Francisco print and had it custom framed in an Ikea frame at Michaels. All-in-all the project cost less than $50! We also ordered our holiday cards from Minted last year. 

I also love Pinhole Press, but I find their selection a bit more limited when it comes to invitations and cards. I think Pinhole is great for specialty items like beer labels, photo books, and alphabet games. What are your favorite sites to order from? xo

Rifle Paper Co. Fall Cards

It's no secret that I love Rifle Paper Co., and their Fall collection is no exception. Do you like to send snail mail to loved ones just because? These Thanksgiving and Halloween cards are so delightful.

Wedding Invitations

Since we're having our wedding ceremony outside and our wedding reception in an old barn, I feel like our invitations should reflect the rustic style. I love these personal invitations from this New Orleans wedding.
