Introducing the Heidi Layered Invitation in the Casual American Typewriter Design

The Heidi layered invitation (named after my favorite sister-in-law) can be dressed up or dressed down to accommodate a fancy or casual event. This particular sample is featuring our casual American Typewriter design. It has a silver metallic background and a white invitation layer. The fun font is emphasized in pink and orange.

This invitation and others can be purchased from our Etsy Shop!
The RSVP Postcards are probably my favorite part of this design. We decided to do something a little different when it came to the reply, we opted to make it Mad Lib Style! Guests can have fun filling in creative adjectives and telling you what their favorite song is that they can't wait to dance to! This is a great way to get a fabulous play list together for your dj. Wording can be customized to suite your needs!

Introducing THE STEPHANIE SIGNATURE POCKET

The last couple of weeks has been incredibly hectic, what with the arrival of the new printer, putting samples and a sample album together, creating my etsy shop, and of course the usual realm of business, meeting with brides and helping them design the perfect invitation for their upcoming weddings! FINALLY, I'm able to start showing off some of what I'm up to!

I'm excited to introduce you to The Stephanie Signature Pocket, yep you got that right, I named it after myself! In fact, each and everyone of my invitation styles will be named after the lovely and special ladies in my life!


The Stephanie Signature Pocket is the perfect catch all for all your VIP wedding information. The side pocket on the right comfortably fits up to 4 enclosure cards so you can easily relay your reception, hotel accomodations, directions and all other wedding information as well as your RSVP card.


Each of my invitation styles will be able to easily mix and match with any of the invitation designs that I have done. If you do not see anything you like we can always create a new design specifically for you to work with your wedding or event style and theme. This particular sample features the flourish design! All the paper colors, font choices, etc can all be customized specifically to coordinate with your wedding and event.

Enclosures for the longest time consisted of only RSVP and reception cards...now there are wedding website, weekend activities, hotel block information, etc. Theses days there can be a lot of information to relay to guests and having a nice little pocket on the invitation will keep everyone organized and informed!

I haven't really spent time on creating unique ways of closing the pockets yet - so stayed tuned and I start using belly bands, tabs, ribbons, charms, and many other embellishments to create that unique look!

For more information on ordering a sample of this invtation or the invitation itself please visit The Stephanie Flourish Etsy Listing.

Style Sunday: Summer Series: Beachy Casual

I'm tired of this snowy New Jersey weather & just dying for summer to get here! I've been busy the last few weeks with all the summer brides trying to pick out their summer wedding items! So, I thought there is no better time to start sharing my summer ideas with you! Summer is probably the top wedding season, and there is definitely not a lack of options for the summer bride. I found so many fabulous items for you that I couldn't fit it all into one blog post...so, I've created the Style Sunday Summer Series. The next couple of weeks will solely be covering the summer month weddings.

This weeks focus is on beachy casual, bright colors, flip flops, sand buckets, fun colored drinks...everything you love about a beach day at your wedding...

Announce your wedding date with these adorable save the date flip flops! Step it up a notch with the invitation. These fun and different invitations are mailed in a great cardboard envelope which really makes it stand out - this definitely won't get lost in the mail. The thongs on the flip flops come in a variety of colors to coordinate with your big day!

Order the Invitations

Many wedding ceremonies feature a unity candle, but for a beach wedding a sand ceremony is much more appropriate! There are so many different colors of sand I'm sure you can find exactly what you are looking for.

The fun sand pail also comes in more colors than you can imagine. They can be incorporated into your centerpieces, hold flip flops for guests, decked out with petals for the flower girl, or be used as a welcome "bag" for your guests.

Guide your guests to their seats with these adorable colorful flip flop place card holders.

The teal seashell placemat would definitely add that extra pop to all your place settings.

There were tons of ideas for favors - there is the obvious lollipops, and playing cards...but I absolutely love the look of the drink mixes. The packaging is absolutely stunning and they would double as decor because they are just so fun. There is never anything better than sitting on a beach with a cocktail in hand - your guests will love them!

I also really liked the woven beach bag. The small scale play on the real deal is a great way for guests to tote home their little gift or candy.

Let's face it, most beach weddings are destination weddings...so you'll want to great your guests with one of these great terry cloth caddy welcome bags filled with all the goodies seen. Your guests will love you for the colorful and festive Chapstick & sun block, especially to save them a trip to the store - remember they can't fly with their Costco sized sunblock in their carry on these days - they'll be really thankful you thought ahead!

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.
