Wedding Invitations: Jennifer & Kipp

I am a bad blogger. There are no excuses, just explanations. I'm in the process of moving and restructuring the Paper Stylist. Lots of exciting changes on the way. I was postponing blogging until I got the new site up. Unfortunately, things are a tad bit behind schedule. As such, I'm just going to try to play catch up with my posts. I'm going to work backwards a bit. I'll start with my more recent projects and work backwards.

This brings me to Jen & Kipp's Wedding Invitations. I designed their Save the Dates last summer and was excited to work on their wedding invitations. As I stated previously, they are family friends with whom we've know for quite some time.

They sent me these images for inspiration.

They stated they wanted something modern, yet elegant with minimal graphics. This is what I created for them.

I also designed two monograms for them. One for their invitations and pre-wedding paraphernalia and one married monogram. Both monograms have been used quite a bit. I love when monograms I create get incorporated into a variety of elements.

The Maid of Honor Jodi and Jerrhelyn, a bridesmaid, made cute labels for their wedding shower and placed them on the hot cocoa cones they made.

Additionally, my sister Cathee, another bridesmaid, had a wedding cake topper made with their married monogram.

The topper was beautifully made by Melissa of Bling Diva Designs. Here's a look at Melissa's handiwork.
