2017 has ended and while I am still coming to grasps with that, I didn't want another day to flash by without sharing photos of my friend Kara's gorgeous summer wedding! To start of course, we need to take a look at the gray lace invitation with their watercolor brush calligraphy envelopes! Kara wanted simplicity in her invitations so we kept the design simple but with an intricate lace design in the corners in a pale gray for low contrast. The wedding ceremony was held outside of the Eagle's Nest Clubhouse. It was truly one of the most gorgeous ceremonies I have ever attended

You guys, I wrote this post TWO years ago, just after the wedding and then I found out I was pregnant and my blog pretty much burnt out for a bit while I struggled with a full 9 months of morning sickness and then newborn craziness and then just working mom life with a baby. So I hope you'll indulge me with this "throwback post" as I'm excited to be posting this now even though it's two years later!! This was such an amazing wedding to work on!! First of all, I got to be bridesmaid AND the stationery designer so that's always fun!! Second of all, Lindsey let me paint all over everything! And that is extra fun!! Lindsey and I have been friends since 4th grade. She was in our wedding several TEN years ago and I was honored that she asked me to be in her wedding as well!! I wanted to share a few of my favorite images from the wedding, of my work and the day itself! First off though, let's start with the wedding invitation suite

1. Grand Budapest Hotel Graphics I really don't know much about this movie but without even seeing the film, I'm already loving the graphic design! Since the entire world is fictional, a design team came in to design EVERYTHING. The film's lead graphic designer, Annie Atkins, said: This film was particularly fun, I think, from a graphics point of view, because we were creating this entirely fictional country that Wes had written - the State of Zubrowka. It meant that every little detail had to be made from scratch - flags, banknotes, postage stamps, everything. Now that sounds like fun! See so much more here on Graphic Exchange. 2. Brittney Lee's Wedding Invitations After finally seeing Frozen, my love of Brittney Lee (previously posted about here), the movie's visual development artist, has exploded! Not sure why I wasn't before, but I am now following her blog and have found her wedding invitations. How unique are these? Seriously loving the color combination and the whole pop-up package! 3. Disney's March Magic Teams I love when my passions overlap

Just a month after the wedding, I posted an in depth recap of that glorious day, when my best friend married the man of her dreams under the trees, amongst the hills of Temecula Valley. While this post shares my best friend's wedding on a whole, I wanted to share a few photos of the behind the scenes of parts I got to work on! To make it to that gorgeous day though, a lot of craft nights (and mornings, and days, and weekends) had to happen. Because she loves me, or my writing I should say, I got to hand letter on just about everything! From the invitations to the cake topper

After a year of planning, my best friend's wedding has come and gone. And while that may sound bittersweet, in place of wedding planning, they now are building their married lives together. It truly is the best end to the year, and a whole new beginning to something even sweeter. All that to say, I don't know if I've ever been more excited to blog here before! And to share these photos from Harvard Photography, with a couple of my own photos thrown in there too. This was definitely a DIY, do it yourself, craft-centric wedding
