Our Wedding Invitation

While browsing Pinterest (oh, how I LOVE Pinterest…follow me here) awhile back, I ran across this image about 1000 times.  The image received lots of “repins”.

It reminded me of our wedding invitation.  Awwww….

And some scanned close-ups.  We aren’t sure if we still have a digital copy…we should look for that.  (I also cut our parents names off of the bottom to protect their identities. :P)

We designed and printed the invitation ourselves….is there any other way?  I found the idea in a invitation idea book (I don’t remember which one).  We liked the idea of making them ourselves.  I liked that they were a bit quirky but not too quirky (kind of like Nate and I).

Writing this post is making me think about framing the invite…but I like having it stored in the original envelopes. I only have 1 copy…probably a good reason to see if we can dig up the electronic copy!

Nate and I DIY’ed something “hip” almost 5 years ago.  Who would have thought?

  1. Cute! What a fun and original idea!

    There's an Etsy seller that does a print like this. I got one for a friend's bridal shower last year.

  2. I love that idea. You guys have been a creative force for some time, huh? Why don't you think about a clever way to frame the envelope either behind the invite or just slightly off centre. It would a great way to preserve it.

  7. Cute idea with the fingerprints! We made all of our invitations by hand, as well. It was supposed to be fun, but it kinda got old when the guest list kept growing and I kept having to make more... :)
