Psssst…. Over here! SShhhhhh! Come closer. No, act casual. Listen! You want a sneak peek in on our Save the Dates? You’ve been so patient, I feel you deserve a little tease.
Actually, I’m just so freakin’ excited I can’t contain it anymore! Behold, our Save The Date envelope—complete with the bad ass wraparound label the gals at Elizabeth Anne Designs* created for us, and the gloriously adorable “love: all heart” stamps. The actual STDs will arrive today, according to FedEx… but we wanted to be ready for them. Now we can just stuff, and send them off!
What do you think?

Isn’t the label divine?!? Way to go Ami & Bekah!
We used Paper & More’s Jupiter Red A7 envelopes, which are pearlescent. They have just the right amount of shimmer, without being “glittery”. They feel nice to the touch (don’t snicker, I’m a tactile gal), and are a really nice stock weight. I highly recommend Paper & More.
Our postal carrier screwed up the delivery. I called the company to verify my address was correct on the order, and they sent out a fresh delivery immediately, and upgraded my shipping to priority, just because they’re that nice.
Now, seriously, I never thought I’d care what stamps we used. To me, it always sounded like the mark of a compulsive bride. I didn’t think I was that bride. But after we saw how gorgeous those labels came out, and how pretty the envelopes looked, it would feel disrespectful to use the correct postage for this letter weight:
Yes, I have now fully embraced my compulsion… How about you?
Have you gotten carried away on the little details?
*Yep, the same EAD who made Miss Avocado’s unique and beautiful invitations!
That label is so gorgeous!!!
