the peony invitation is my fav of the four

I ordered my invitations from White Aisle and I’m really happy with the quality of her work. However she merely plugs in whatever I say without offering me any input (despite my asking). I guess after reading about her on her webpage and being a newly-wed, I felt she was a little on the “cold” side. Very business-like and professional, nothing more, nothing less. But the invitations are truly high quality and definitely don’t feel cheap!

I’ve had my eye on that peony invitation! It’s very pretty.

i love peonies…that one is my fave

I ordered sample after sample from exclusively weddings. My favorite was the square one you liked, only I ordered it in gold. But since we’re having a less formal wedding in the middle of the afternoon, it was a bit much. Plus postage was going to hurt. Good luck finding invites. I like the one from white aisle.

I think you can DIY with the peony invitations. I’ve seen it somewhere (forgot where), where you can buy a peony stamp and the color ink and voila!

I just got my save the dates samples last night from White aisle (I know I said I didn’t like them, but I love her designs, so I thought I’d at least get the save the dates from her). I got the lily and venice cards and they were actually great! My Checkerboard samples came too, and in comparison, my FI and I loved the white aisle ones better. Originally I looked at the Botanticals line, and the paper is definitely of lesser quality. Venice and Lily seemed much better- and soft. It had a nice antique touch. The ink is flat ink, but it was still pretty cute. As long as you order a set made with Arturo paper, you’re golden!
