{Part 2} Invitations

Happy Sunday!!  So here we are onto {Part 2} of my Sister's wedding - THE INVITATIONS

Click here for {Part 1}

Basically, I had 3 invites to design for the Bride and Groom, as they wanted a Save-The-Date email invite, an invite for the wedding in Dominican, and an invite for the reception back home.

My favourite part was designing their "Wedding Passport" invitation.  Of course, we wanted the invites to represent tropical and travel.  I had come across a few different designs online, but wasn't satisfied with the look of it, so I took to my own imagination and came up with my own design template.  We wanted it to look like a passport as much as possible - having the gold embossing on the front, the first page formatted the same way with name and identification.  I think they turned out fabulous!  What do you think?

Thanks again to Sherena for being a brilliant photographer and thinking to bring this invitation to Dominican!

Now for the second home-made invitation, we kept things a lot more simpler.  For the reception at home, Andrea & Stefan wanted to add in a country feel to the beach theme (ex. Bridal party all wore cowboy boots; the venue was in a barn), so we gave these reception invites a bit of a country flare.

Tip #1: If you are sending out simple or not too heavy invites, consider placing a strip of magnet on the back, so your guests can display it on the fridge where it is in sight and won't get lost!

If you're in the process of deciding what to do about your invitations, consider having a custom home-made, one for you!  The great thing about getting them made is they can be personalized to your own specifications (colours, wording, details, etc.)!
