Happy Anniversary Kendra & Matt!

If you've been looking for a custom designed beach wedding invitation - look no more! This beautiful invitation exudes everything beach in all the right ways. The invitation is printed on a piece of smooth ivory cardstock and has a strip of sand (yes, real sand right from the beach:) cascading down the side. The invite is bordered with a stunning piece of  aqua shimmer cardstock that simply shines. The entire invitation is attached in a custom designed pocket made of a rich and thick brown handmade paper. The invitation is attached with two hemp knots, signifying their uniting. The reply card was printed on ivory, bordered with the aqua shimmer cardstock and attached with a hemp knot. With a mix of local and traveling guests, the couple had both direction and accommodation cards detailing all the necessary information. The accommodation card that was printed on ivory cardstock and bordered with the aqua shimmer paper, was much needed as the couple invited many of the guests to stay for the weekend at the hotel and beach where the wedding was taking place. ALL of these cards are tucked away easily and neatly in the bottom portion of this pocketfold, which is enclosed with a hemp ribbon. When folded, this pocket fold invitation is wrapped and tied with a hemp ribbon and an outer tag displaying the couple's names. The completed invitation was then placed in an aqua shimmer inner envelope with an ivory outer envelope. We made matching return address labels printed on ivory with fonts matching the invitation.

For the big day, we designed matchbook style programs alternating both the ivory and aqua colors used in their invitations, with a small touch of the brown handmade paper. But don't stop there, to keep everything flowing we design coordinating menus and use starfish that double as a favor and escort card with printed tags displaying the guest and table number.

This gorgeous invitation couldn't have been more perfect for a barefoot beach wedding at the beautiful Tradewinds Resort on St. Petersburg Beach, Florida. Keep in mind all of these paper colors can be altered to perfectly match your wedding colors. Email us @ invitationsbythisandthat@live.com for pricing and more invitation options.

Happy Anniversary to our friends in Colorado!
Jason & Kelly Berger

Here's what we did for their invitation!

Due to the fact that they had a lot of out of town guests, they decided to go with a square pocket fold invitation for their rustic wedding. We created a custom made, pocket fold out of chocolate brown matted card stock. The pocket was attached with two bronze brads. Their invitation was printed on cream card stock and bordered with kraft. Down the side of the invite is a strip of beautiful blue, thick handmade paper. There are lots of fibers and different shades of blue swirled throughout. The same strip is down the side of the reply card as well. Their enclosure cards included a hotel accommodation card and a direction card, which was a map of the area. When the invitation was all closed, we tied it with a natural raffia ribbon and placed it in a kraft brown envelope.

The overall feel of this invitation was perfect for their outdoor wedding which was held on the stunning grounds of the Lionsgate Center in Lafayette, Colorado.

This handmade paper comes in various colors which we can be coordinated with your wedding.  We offer many styles of pocket folds in square and rectanglular shapes including our own custom made pockets to suit your wedding.

Just in time for Earth Day... an earth friendly invitation!

When Sue came to us with the idea of a 100 % recycled earth friendly invitation we were so excited! For those who know us we are freaks about recycling so we couldn't wait to dive into this invitation.
Here's what we did...
Invitation and Reply Post Card (save on shipping cost with a post card) are printed on a 100% recycled paper with 30% post consumer fibers. There are noticeable fibers and specks in both papers. Even though they are recycled papers they have a smooth finish. There's a raffia tie wrapped around the invitation with two small tags showcased on the back of the invitation. One tag has a note to their guests explaining the tag behind it which is handmade plantable paper. The plantable paper is white with larkspur flowers all throughout. When planted with a little bit of water and lots of love, wildflowers will start to bloom. Also check out all the recycling symbols we put in there. We didn't stop there with the earth friendly theme - don't forget the mailing envelope that is a kraft brown envelope which is 100 % recycled and 100%  post consumer waste.

Thanks Sue & Danny for letting us help create your special day to come!

Keep an eye out for other earth friendly invitations. We definitely have lots of ideas brewing after doing this wedding :)
