The following couple is, although not near, they are dear to our hearts. It's good old Aunt D and Uncle Steve!!! Knowing her and knowing her well, we knew that we'd have to step it up to fulfill her wedding invitation dreams. She is very elegant and sophisticated and wanted her invitations to convey the same look. The location was pristine!!! The Inn on Broadway in Rochester, New York has a very Victorian feel to it, but quaint enough to still be charming. With that said, the décor was impeccable so Diane & Steve didn't need to gussy up the already flawless palette. With that said, a color scheme was still up in the air. Diane explained that the bridesmaids would wear black and carry red roses. She continued saying she wanted a timeless, yet Victorian and avant-garde feel, but simple...hummmmmm. WE WERE ON OUR OWN:) We took it upon ourselves to keep it clean and simple and add a small touch of color...here is what we did:
We started with the wedding invitation and immediately chose a very tight script font to display and announce a bit of formality for the festivities to come. We chose a cream linen cardstock to print the invitation. Once again, we wanted that sophisticated look and linen is a great go-to when you want to class it up:) Since their wedding date was in the Fall, we chose a burgundy cardstock to border this classy invitation, but we didn't stop there. Still, we felt that this invitation was still lacking the ornateness that was necessary for their wedding invitations. And then our AHHHHAAAA moment...a wrap! But not a typical wrap. We wanted something so stunning, so when their guests open the envelope they would say WOW. We found a beautiful handmade ivory paper with gold rings embellished throughout. We finished this set with a sheer burgundy ribbon. They're set included matching linen ivory reply cards and reception cards. Diane & Steve were floored when they saw what we created...it was a great feeling:)
