Summer Wedding Invitation Inspiration

I don't know about you, but I am ready for all of this snow to melt! I am ready for summer. I'm feeling more strongly about this as I have been working on summer wedding designs. I thought it would be fun to bring some snippets of those designs to add a little warmth and color to this cold, snowy February.

Honestly, summer weddings will be here before we know it! The invitations will be getting mailed out soon. Some mock ups of my favorite pieces that I've been working on are featured here. I can’t wait until the professional prints arrive from the printer!

Summer Flower Wedding Invitations

These invitations have warmed up my days for the past couple of weeks. The couple requested a light, airy and fun design with blush floral elements. I think we nailed it!

Summer Seaside Wedding

I just sent these save the dates off to the printer for a wedding at the Avalon Yacht Club in Avalon, New Jersey. I can't wait to get started on the invitation design which will include a venue illustration and this loose navy watercolor design element that elicits the vision of water. I can't wait to get my feet into some warm sand at the ocean!

Summer Meadow Wedding Invitations

For a summer meadow wedding, I love handmade paper! Even better is handmade, deckled edge paper. This paper has amazing rich texture and can be used with letterpress printing.

Summer Sunset Wedding

This isn't a typical request for a wedding invitation, but I was excited to work on this idea. A sunset wedding requires some really good planning and timing. This couple loves the colors of a beautiful summer sunset - mostly the bright oranges. We wanted to have a big WOW moment when their guests opened their invitation envelopes, so we made sure those bright colors were the first thing their guests would see.

These have been so much fun to design. I cannot wait to see what the next couple in my studio inspires!
