All of my guests have finally received their invitations!
Here is the finished product:
(designed by Wiley Valentine)
I love them so much I could eat them. I adore the floating, clean, slighty vintage, organic look! The bellyband is just so darn cute, and I am enraptured by the response card. Sigh….
I only wish I could have gotten these to the calligrapher in time. I have okay penmanship, but I love the elegant and flawless work of a true calligrapher. I had no idea it would take a few weeks to get all the envelopes addressed. Oops.
I did what I could do:
It could be a lot worse. At least it’s legible.
But the best part of all of this? Three friends called to tell me the invites are fabulous, and they already put their response cards in the mail.

These are gorgeous! Wow. I love the colors and the vintage feel of it… I might have to copy off of you!
Wow, those are gorgeous!!! And even though I’m not generally a bellyband person, they TOTALLY make your invites! And the phonograph is awesome!!
Those are absolutely stunning!!!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous
These are so pretty!
Wow, STUNNING!! I can absolutely tell from those pics that they are letterpress!! *drool* Love the imprint on the envelope as well…
These are absolutely gorgeous, love the details and the fact that you used bright colors on letterpress (which makes them that much more unique)!
I always enjoy seeing the handwriting of the bride on the envelope — personal touch!
oooh! beautiful!
Love them! I also love the phonograph–it is so iconic!
Love it! Great choice!
that kelly green!!!! oh, i adore it- even better because it’s on letterpress.
and I think the handwriting is quite nice!!
invitations look fantastic, and your writing looks good! i wouldn’t worry about not having them calligraphed.
gorgeous! we’re an m&m too!!!!
Yeah, your handwriting is hella better than mine was.
Don’t forget to search weddingbee for “phonograph.” Miss Lovebug posted some ideas about including phonographs in the reception decor, and that’d tie in nicely with your response cards.
You definitely need a Nipper statue to guard your guestbook, for example.
In fact, the more I think about it, the more certain I am. Nipper. Definitely.
They are amazing… I love the contrast between the white and green…. I love letterpressed invites!

About Me: I love artistic pursuits of all sorts! I'm creative and organized, but my downfall is obsessing over details. I enjoy running outdoors, trying new restaurants, and staring at décor and wedding magazines for hours on end. I hope to one day design a hotel in a foreign country, preferably France, Greece, Japan, or Australia. I am elated to marry Mr. Licorice and experience life’s adventures with him!
