Best post title ever, no? My brain is so incredibly fried from invitation-overload, and thankfully we’re at the point where there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Take a gander at all that has gone down…
It took a week solid for me to address all of the envelopes, cut out the eleventy-billion hearts, cut out the eleventy-billion liners… well, we’ll look at all the numbers and details later, but yes, this is a sold week’s of work. Thankfully my spring break was last week, or else I would have never been able to get all of this done. Despite all of the whining, indecisiveness, pain-in-the-butt-iveness, I wouldn’t change a thing. I am thrilled with how they have turned out, and cannot wait to finish assembling so that we can drop these suckers in the mail!
Did your invitation assembly end up taking an immense amount of time? Who else sacrificed their spring break or vacation time for the sake of wedding?
I love the little hearts! Must have been a huge pain to cut them all out but makes it perfect!
They look incredible! I still can’t believe you taught yourself calligraphy.
Very cute! Love em!
Alas, I am NOT putting the invites together as I spent far too much time on the save the dates.
My extent of involvement will be the addressing on the outside of the envelope and securing postage to said envelope!
That’s a crazy amount of work, but when you look at it all completed it sure it worth it!
Congrats on being done!!! Everyone will love to see your personality (as well as your blood sweat and tears) in the invites!
I’ve been in love with your invitation suite since you first posted about the CMYK idea. 
OMG Drooollllllll!!! So pretty. Love that heart you included for extra info!
They look amazing! I had to bribe the moms with wine to get them to help me the first time. And then I bribed with wine AND food for the second attack.
I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I’m in LOVE with your invitations… and your crazy amazing calligraphy… seriously awesome
I love the yellow belly band - it’s just the right finishing touch of color.
Your invitation sets are gorgeous!
I began my invitation assembly with a wicked hangover. I figured “heck, this is going to suck anyway, why not do it on a day I already feel like hell?”
It worked pretty well. Good thing all I had to do was tie ribbon. I’m doing mine in a 8-part process. The invitations themselves are assembled. The information cards are designed, printed and cut out. The RSVP cards are in MS Word, just waiting for the date to get a little closer before getting printed.
I adore the hearts- what kind of printing method are they? aka… how can I steal your idea of printing white on yellow… and then cutting them out in heart shape lol
