Custom Work 03/16/2013

I just finished up two separate batches of custom invitation work for two very lovely brides who are looking forward to their big days in March - one is even on my birthday, the 23rd! :)

Now that the invitations have been sent out for Cecilia's wedding, she went ahead and gave me a green light on creating a blog post showcasing her GORGEOUS one of a kind invitations.


We teamed up in the early stages of planning to start brainstorming and bouncing ideas off of each other. What we came up with is just simply amazing. With a palette of eggplant, lavender, and silver, the design incorporates a little bit of the old French flair of Louisiana with an old photo album theme.
A custom ordered stamp featured their names and wedding date - they got to take it home with them!
Every piece was carefully hand bound.

The old photo album style featured two of their engagement shots accented by silver photo corners.

The main invitation featured a small fleur de lis and was backed by beautiful metallic lavender card stock. Elegant!

The hand bound booklet featured the main invitation, a center frame holding a musical piece composed for Cecilia by her fiance, Steven, and three inserts. The RSVP was spelled out in French to capture a little bit of the old French heritage in Louisiana.

The piece composed for Cecilia by her future husband,  Steven! There is a subtle fleur de lis showing through the vellum.

She let me put a little stamp on the back for advertising purposes! Awesome! 

























We are hoping to showcase our second custom order here in the weeks to come! Meanwhile, we hope to be designing a few more signature series invitations and save the dates to add to our collection.
