Meghan + Ken: Wedding Invitation
When you are designing for one of your very best friends, it can be a lot of fun….and a little bit of pressure. Especially when they have as good of style and taste as this bride. Meghan and Ken are getting married in January at the Frontiers of Flight Museum here in Dallas. We started off setting the tone for her 1940′s inspired wedding with her save the date and Meghan wanted to follow up with an invitation that was “formal but not pretentious, gentile and reflective of her families past.”
We used thermography printing in navy on each piece of the suite, even the front and back sides of the custom map. Meghan also decided to go with an inner and outer envelope for the invitation and had a calligrapher do the addressing. The flower wreath monogram might be my favorite part of the design (maybe because I poured my heart and soul into the individual placement of each flower and leaf…) but it is also now a reoccuring element that we are going to incorporate in her ceremony programs and other wedding paper goods.
I can’t wait to share pictures of Meg and Ken’s special day…..if the wedding is half as beautiful as this couple, it is going to be knock your socks off amazingness. Stay tuned!
Beaufitul!! Very original design. You did a great job capturing exactly what the bride wanted!
These custom wedding invitations are amazing! All three pieces tie in together very nicely. Some of your best work to date!
The map is amazing !!!!
Absolutely Gorgeous! I love the elegance the ribbon brings giving this collection a classy unique feel, it screams perfection! I adore the map, this is such a fun personalized addition AND the flower wreath monogram, INSANE, so romantic, delicate and just timeless. Takes my breathe away.
Jennifer! You are waaaay too sweet. It was a dream to work with you, and the invitation suite greatly exceeded my expectations. I knew you were the only one to trust with turning my childhood wedding wishes into a reality, but I had no idea of the seriousness with which you take attention to detail. Each and every flower of that wreath was placed with love, and the result was pure perfection and a more accurate representation of my style than I could have even created myself! You are a true talent and a treasured friend. Thank you for putting your pen to such an important moment in my life. Love you.
