About Mrs. Lox

Okay okay…I took a while to get this to you. Sorry about that, guys. I’m on it now. I promise, no more drawing things out. Let’s cut to the chase here!

First of all, you should know while I DIY-ed a few little details, I did not DIY our invites. First of all, I stink at graphic design. And second of all, Mr. Lox really thought it would be too much for me. It was a good call on his part, too. With being sick and all, I would have fallen behind and it would have been either really stressful to finish or I flat out would not have. Knowing that, here are the gorgeous invitations, which I purchased, and customized, through Etsy seller LittleSparkCreations.

The Lox Invites – Part 2, the Reveal! :  wedding baltimore invitations stationery 18 Our Invitation Suite


This is the iHEARTyou Wedding Pocketfold Invitation Suite from LittleSparkCreations. Obviously, she customized these to meet my needs by adjusting the colors and even adding an extra meal icon for the children we are inviting. (I guess I didn’t tell y’all that yet, but there it is. There will be children at our wedding.) Alas, the un-artful smudging is all courtesy of me. If I thought smudging out our lovely return address stamp was hard, this was a downright crime. But, we do what we have to do!

Want to take a closer look? Me too.

The colors! The hearts! LittleSparkCreations rocks. Let’s see the insert card, shall we?

She was really a champ here. I mean, look at how much sheer information she managed to list on this card. I thought we were going to have to limit the menu item descriptions, but she assured me she could get it all in. And she delivered. Hooray!

How about an RSVP?

I absolutely adore the icons for the meal choices here. In fact, it’s one of my very favorite things about the whole invitation suite.

Now that these are out in the wild, we’ve gotten some great feedback about them. And I know I couldn’t possibly be happier with our choice. What do you think?

How about you… how did you choose your invitations? Or how will you?

How cute are these! The added “kid’s meal” option puts it over the edge. Such a fun, festive invite.

Great invites! I think the only “problem” is how hard it would be to choose between two delicious sounding entrees. ;)
