In planning my wedding, the top two things that made me suicidal were: the invitations (Exhibits 1 2 3 4 5) and our honeymoon (Exhibits 1 2 3 4). Our honeymoon was amazing which made all the research worthwhile but our invitations well, the thought that some ended up in the rubbish bin pains me! In the end, was it worth it? For me, in all honesty, well - no. The process of (semi) DIY invitations from conception to fruition required more creativity, patience, diligence and energy than I posess on a normal basis, much less while juggling the 1000000 other wedding planning balls in the air at the time. For the next invitation requiring soiree I plan, will I go the DIY route again? Haha, you betcha. Aren’t we all just gluttons for punishment like that; nothing beats a spanking by paper and glue man.
Our main envelopes were metallic brown and our RVSP envelopes were pink (remember our superhero stamps?)
Some guests received an additional Chinese insert which my dad typed.
The Chinese insert was the same size as the main invitation insert.
The gizzards. They’re not too fancy but each piece was like a child I birthed sans meds.
I have all my Adobe Illustrator files still, including the Chinese insert and Chinese font, so email me if you want the goods.
