Mexican Themed Invites
One of my best friends, Kirby, through a shower for a good family friend, Philip, and her college friend, Sydney, this past Saturday, and she sent out the cutest invitations (found here) Since the she shower was being held at Pappasitos, she went with a Mexican theme. I’m borderline obsessed with papel picado, and cannot wait until Paola (another best friend) gets married, so that I can go crazy with this colorful paper (as expressed here). Some other pretty Mexican themed invites below!
Bachelorette Party Invitations
I have the best best friend ever. I know, I know – everyone thinks that (but I’m right!). McKenzie, who is also my Maid of Honor, sent the most amazing Bachelorette Party invitations. I literally squealed when I received it. McKenzie and Bryan, her extremely talented boyfriend, designed them, and I think they are perfect. I cannot wait – one more week to go until Wine Weekend!
The National Stationery Show
The National Stationery Show took place from May 19-22 in NYC, and I followed along religiously on Oh So Beautiful Paper. I told my wedding stationery designer that I will literally crawl into her luggage if she goes next year – it is such a dream of mine. Cards everywhere. And twine. And wrapping paper. And planners. Seriously? I sifted through hundreds of pictures and posted my favorites below! Feast your eyes.
Our Invitation
At long last, I can reveal our invitations, as the majority of our guests have received them by now. If you’ve been reading Snapshots and My Thoughts for awhile now, you’ll know that I used Papellerie (formerly Atheneum Creative) to design the invitations and save-the-dates (ours is here). I honestly could not love them more.
