Black, White & Gold Pocketfold

Lindsey & Mike selected this black pocketfold with antique gold accent color for their upcoming November 2010 wedding. This beautiful invitation will certainly set the tone for their sophisticated and elegant black and white themed wedding! They had a lot of information to relay to their guests so they opted for several enclosures.

They included directions to both the ceremony & reception, hotel blocking information, a reception card that informed guests about cocktail hours, the reception and afterparty...and of course they had a reply card too!

The front tab will be simple and elegant...featuring both of their names in the antique gold font color!

Mirka & Jan's Red Rose Theme Invitations

Today I had the pleasure of meeting with Mirka about invitations. She was a breeze to work with because she knew exactly what she looking for out of an invitation. She came armed and ready to go with pictures of invitations she liked, this is so helpful to have when meeting with your stationery consultant because it helps us help you so much faster.

Mirka and her fiance are both from Slovakia - half of their guests speak only Slovak and the other half speak English, they also have a small guest list of only about 50 people. Because of this I instantly recommended that they do a custom invitation. Printing companies have such high set up fees that to have to have them set up 2 different invitations and then tack on a foreign language charge would put the price of their invitations a ridiculous high price for only 50 invitations.

Mirka also requested a unique invitation size. Traditionally in the US invitations really do not start any smaller than 5x7, however as she explained to me, in Slovakia guests traditionally keep their invitations and they like to put them into photo albums, so their invitations are generally no larger that 4x6.

Because of all of these unique factors, custom design was truly the best scenario.

This was one of the inspiration invitations that Mirka showed me that she liked...

This is how I recreated...this is a rough draft, client's personal invitation was blocked for privacy.

This was another inspiration picture Mirka shared with me, her only request was that flower have color.

This is what I created for her..

Tie in your wedding colors with these pocket-fold invitations

Shonette and Terrance have picked one of my favorite types of invitations, the pocketfold. I love how all the enclosure cards line up real nicely in the stacked arrangement - easy to find whatever information you need at a real quick glance! This is essentially the invitation that they have picked - however they have chosen to replace the gold shimmer card stock with a bright fuscia in order to pull in their wedding colors. This invitation is from Carlson Craft's pocket line and it is part of their pocket ensembles line which has paper color, layout, and other options for a more personalized look.
