Original Save The Dates from Minted

I needed some ideas for fun holiday cards this year and my friend Sarah from Sarah's Test Kitchen told me about Minted.com. This place has some really modern and fun designs to choose from. They also have adorable "yearline " Holiday Cards and Save The Date cards!

You can get 100 of them for about $2 each. Affordable and original!

Photo Card

I'm off to Tahoe this weekend but I'll be back with more weddings to share from this year!

J + A Wedding | Regency Center | San Francisco | Part II

Here are some more photos of Jessica Alex's beautiful wedding at the Regency Center in San Francisco.

Jessica and Alex made the manzanita branch centerpieces and I accented them with the flowers around the base.

They had long banquet tables so I did a variety of centerpieces in white and pink.

Here are the invitations that they made. Jessica designed the invitations and Alex made the pocketfold. He made each one by hand!

Stinkerpants Designs Sale

Sara from Stinkerpants Designs is having a sale! Sara was kind enough to design my baby shower invitations and I LOVED them. I gave her very little direction and she totally came up with something adorable. You can see the baby shower invites here. If you're considering Save The Date cards or super original invites you should contact her soon for this awesome deal!

E & A Invite Part II

After looking over the invitations, Erin decided to go with....

Invite E!!

She had these letterpressed - I'm hoping I get a copy so I can see it in person!

Here are the other components to go with this invite:

RSVP

Rehearsal Dinner Invite

Directions

Monogram

Label for the Caramel Apples they had as favors

E & A Invites

Erin contacted me many moons ago and asked me to design her flowers and invites. Of course at the time I was delighted to do so. But then I got pregnant (yeah for me, boo for her) so I was no longer able to help with the flower part since her wedding date was 2 days away from my due date!! I felt terrible about this but Erin was so understanding and incredibly supportive. I was still able to help out with her invites! So here are a few mock ups I did for her:

Invite A

Invite B

Invite C

Invite D

Invite E

Invite F

Any guesses on which ones she picked? Which ones are your favorites?
I'll share her first pick with you in the next post along with the invitation suite we created for her which includes: Invite, RSVP, Directions, Accommodations and a monogram!

M & R Part II

I mentioned before that I helped Monya and Russ with their Invites. They wanted something that incorporated fall leaves in shades of brown. We played with a few different ideas and this is the final product!

J & S

Jenny and Shawn got married on a gorgeous day in September. They celebrated their wedding at the Napa Valley Country Club with an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Jenny and Shawn wanted to incorporate dahlias and fall colors (burgundy, oranges and yellows) since dahlias were their favorite flower. All photographs were taken by Travis Hoehne Photography.
