Handmade flower paper, a laser cut belly band, a dried floral wax seal, lots of custom illustrations and an earthy color palette make for this unique, custom invitation suite for Rachel and Andrew. Andrew proposed to Rachel on the Sahale Glacier, so I knew that it had to be a main detail of the suite, which inspired the laser cut belly band. I incorporated a wood textured cardstock and translucent vellum to marry a wedding weekend in the woods with a romantic softness. We also added some earthy boho flair with a wax seal made special with dried pressed florals, making each one unique. The custom illustrations also made this suite very personal to Rachel and Andrew. We included two different illustrations of their dog, Onyx, along with two custom crests, one in full color and the other a line drawing. We also drew a line drawing of their wedding venue for their guests to know what was to come for their wedding weekend! This was also the perfect suite to use wildflower handmade paper, which made for a luxe, earthy soft texture and gave guests a gift of planting wildflowers afterwards. We added a little card to give guests the instructions on how to do this. And finally, a National Park inspired response card with all of their florals peeking through, which is one of their favorite things to do together. This invitation suite was truly magic and so special to Rachel and Andrew!
We also took all of these meaningful details and included them all in their day-of signage and paper goods, as well. First, with a National Park themed seating chart and table name signs! Each National Park had a custom handdrawn illustration and was UV printed on acrylic, so it was in full color. We also created a monogram welcome sign, so they could have it afterwards as the sweetest keepsake! We added in custom photo booth props, 5 different drink stir sticks, custom cocktail napkins, a wedding weekend welcome card, welcome bag laser engraved wooden name tags, and the custom menu and place cards. This wedding was fully branded and so truly unique!
A love note from the bride: “Everyone has been raving about the wedding invites saying they are some of the best they’ve seen!!! Seriously, we’ve been getting so many good comments :) So I just wanted to tell you! People are LOVING THEM! They keep saying that Onyx on them is adorable and the seed paper is so different and cool! They didn’t even know seed paper was a thing!
