Vendor Rave and Reader Invitations
August 24th, 2006 @ 5:19 pm by Mrs. Bee
I wanted to thank Miss Grasshopper for mentioning Peter Kruty Editions for doing her letterpressed invitations. It’s sort of a long story, but essentially, I had my invitations printed by a letterpress printer that came highly recommended. Well he botched the job and refused to redo it!
I had one month to research and requote my invitations with another letterpress printer. My design (I’m a grahic designer) was a bit complicated and most print shops couldn’t handle the it. Well, as soon as I saw Miss Grasshopper’s invites and read how pleased she was, I emailed Kat at PKE immediately.
They were able to print the job to perfection! If it weren’t for Miss Grasshopper, I would have never discovered the greatness that is PKE!
thanks again!!

Daisy was kind enough to share her beautiful 7 page invitation with us that included - the invitation, reception card, map, hotel information, history of the cathedral, history of the reception venue, and a perforated RSVP postcard.
Check out the rest of her invitation pics here.

Hee hee.. I know you, too! I LOVE the invites. Makes me wish we were going to do that, but NOOO. The fiance is CHEAP. Good job, Daisy!
WOOWWW. I’m impressed! Daisy, would you be interested to consider designing mine if I pay for it?!
wow… just beautiful!!!
awe.. thanks so much everyone!!
i know it’s a bit much for an invite, but 99% of the guests are OOTers and i thought it would be nice to include history of the places so that they’d feel connected before arriving. i also didn’t do save-the-dates so that justifies having more info than just the announcement.
i think i may be up for designing invites! they are so wonderful to do because it’s such an important and special occasion!
thanks again!
Daisy, what is your email addy so I can contact you regarding your service? Thanks!
