Picturesque Save the Date
Michelle and James love to sail and they wanted to incorporate that into their save the dates. Luckily they have a fabulous photo of them sailing together. Initially, we were worried that the photo wouldn't print well because it was taken from a camera phone. But with some Photoshop magic and a little luck, the photo printed beautifully. It almost looks like a stock photo!
With the computer printed calligraphy on the envelopes and that same font used on the save the dates, this is an elegant way to set the tone for their wedding.

A Bicyclist's Dream
I love the colors of this wedding: purple, silver and yellow accents. And when Katrina said that her fiancé is an avid bicyclist (and photographer), I knew this was going to be a fun and whimsical design. What came to mind? Gears, of course!
The square save the dates were digitally printed on pearlescent textured paper, backed with silver metallic cardstock. A design of gears set off the bicycle/photographer tone.
The pocketfold invitations were letterpress printed...swoon! We chose a 100% cotton paper for the invitation and enclosure cards and a beautiful yellow paper backing for the invitation and monogram seal. These were all set off with the silver metallic pocketfold.
To make the invitations a little different from the save the dates, I created an outline of gears (instead of filling the gears in with color). By doing so, the indention of the letterpress really was illustrated. The custom monogram I created used their first initials and a close-up of one of the gears. Katrina even used the monogram on her postage stamps (you can purchase custom postage at
