One of the things I was looking forward to the most about being engaged and planning a wedding (aside from the fact that I am marrying the coolest person I know), was designing my wedding invitations!

The whole theme of our wedding is swanky, with a lot of high fashion romantic elements with dramatic lighting. We’re getting married at The Chelsea so we definitely needed invitations that mimicked the upscale NYC style. I designed and assembled the actual invitations myself, ordered the envelopes and cut stocks from Envelopments and then used In To Ink for the letterpress printing. Of course you will notice the fine details, like the stamps from Zazzle! I also wanted a more relaxed tone for the verbiage, so we spent a lot of time coming up with casual and witty lines for each element. I love them and hopefully they set the tone for a fabulous night.
