My fiance and I are having our dream winery wedding to be held in February (Only 7 months to go!!!)
We've done most of the planning together. Well, you could say, I do the research and then we sit down and we decide together on the options I have put together. (If you want your man to be more involved, try this tactic ladies!! It works wonders!!!) However when it came to the invitations, I demanded to have all the input ;)
Our theme is what I would call Modern Rustic. However, this is pumped with beautiful lace, pearl and feather details. We decided on our colours, chocolate brown, deep red and ivory. This proved difficult in my countless google searches for some ideas and tips on our theme. So it was time to create my own.
Firstly I loved the idea of having a boxed invitation, with wonderful vine and a flower to complete the look.
Yes they were beautiful, but extremely expensive!! Even just to post the boxes would have gone close my stationery budget. It was time to re-think...
How could I still incorporate the lace and feather, but using a trusty 55c stamp? It's when I came up with this...
And yes! I stayed under budget! Even with the wedding still 7 months away and all details not finalised, I have all ready assembled the invitations, just without the wording yet.
I can't wait to get started on the details for them!!
