Holy Crap, They're Done!!!! Pictures of my invitations! :)


Recommended Posts

YES! I can't believe it, I've finally finished the invitations. We just need a few final touches like address labels for the boxes, and a few invitations that need to be done... but that's it.

 

I have to thank Jessalyn for her help and for showing her amazing invitations as my inspiration. You're awesome, and my invitations wouldn't look nearly as good without you. I'm super happy about the way they turned out!

 

Originally I wanted blue mulberry paper, but it was really hard to find in the colour I liked. I managed to find this Blue Iris paper in a local art store in Calgary called Mona Lisa Art Supplies. The pictures don't seem to do it justice. I really love the way they turned out.

 

Anyways... time for pictures!!!!

 

This is what it looks like when you open the box. The starfish is tied to the invite with twine. We were going to do blue ribbon, but the only ribbon I liked would have been about $50 extra... so we nixed it for the twine!! lol

And this is what it looks like once you open it up. It's a trifold pocket invitation, so I have four inserts (two per side) and the center one is the actual invite. It's backed by burlap and has twine around the top with the sand dollar.

Oh ok, I never thought to bring one, I'll add that to the list. I planned on mailing one to you.... do you want me to mail it now with all the others, or once it gets closer to the wedding?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
