I couldn’t be more thrilled with our invitations! I knew from the start I wouldn’t be able to tackle DIY-ing our invites on my own, due to my totally OCD behavior and the fact that I have a habit of changing my designs as soon as I grow tired of looking at them. As a result, I headed on over to Etsy one year ago and found a lovely woman by the name of Cindi, aka BrassPaperclip. Cindi specializes in cards, gifts and custom creations and she is a goddess when it comes to customer support. I was showing Mr. CC how much I have babbled to her via Etsy and it seriously took me forrrrrreeeeeeepaever to scroll through all of our past conversations. She has put up with me chatting her ear off about the details and I’m so grateful for her hard work and super fantabulous personality.

Our invites feature a beautiful 3-layer panel card in dark brown, light blue and ivory, trimmed with rich double face satin ribbon. The blue & brown colors and birdie lovin’ totally matches our avian theme. The RSVP card features chicken and mushroom icons to add a touch of whimsy to the design.I was able to provide the map, thanks to our friend and uber-talented photographer, Miss Laura Kicey.

Our wee wedding website cards round out the package and subtly direct guests to the website for more wedding info and fun stuff (aka where to buy us presents if they so desire bwahaha)!

Our package includes 65 of the following elements:

-3-layer color-printed invitations with ribbon accent, printed outer envelope, RSVP card and printed RSVP envelope
-directions cards
-web cards

Anywho, here are more photos taken by Cindi for your viewing pleasure!

I can’t recommend BrassPaperclip enough to handle your crafty, customized wedding needs. It’s very difficult for me to resist the handmade, vintage-inspired items in her shop.

Is anyone else getting their invitations custom designed instead of DIY-ing them?
