Meron & Simon

I have been absolutely crazy busy these last couple of weeks trying to get these invitations out for a new client.

Sewit called me last month and told me that her little brother was getting married and they are planning a huge celebration in May for the wedding. 

Sewit and her  future sister in law Sineet are in charge of the invitations as well as the planning of the wedding.  With a guest list of over 400 family and friends, and a short time frame to get the invitations out to the guests, I knew we needed to get to work immediately on the design and the production.

Needless to say, being in a rush causes a few hiccups, so I do advise if you ever have to place an order for such a large amount of invitations, please consider that someone (like me) has to put them together.  But I digress, we were still able to finish these within 4 weeks, I have to say, my team was such a great help I dont think I would of been able to finish these without them. 

I was surprised that we were able to get these out in such a short time, I usually have more time for these kinds of invitations.  But the finished product was perfect, and when Sewit saw them she fell in love.  So in the end it was well worth the effort.

400 invitations and two sleepless nights later, and not to mention quite a few paper cuts, they invitations are done and delivered, and here they are for your viewing pleasure.

Royal Blue Wedding

Deedra is getting married in Bermuda, and when we spoke she told me that she wanted something that would wow her guests.  Her colors are royal blue and silver, and her dress is covered in lace.  Her mom wanted the invitation to sit inside the lace.  I thought about making an envelope using the lace but since she loved our Kimono invitation I thought making a few adjustments to it would work. Of course we still had to customize it to match her colors and theme.  

I started by creating the pad, added the beautiful royal blue taffeta and the ribbon with the brooch.  I then created the pillow for the box, and to tie in her lace, I added the lace underneath the pillow and brought it around the front to use as a cover for the invitation.  

I really like the way this came out, what do you think?
