pretty writing meets HOLY MATRIMONY: Emmeline & Eric



"the Royal Wedding",
as we've all dubbed this day.

once that hunk of a diamond was placed on Em's hand,
THE PLANNING BEGAN:

all the pinning,
the emailing,
the gchatting,
the venting (haha).
oh, and Em was studying for her medical boards
all at the same time.
(cray)

quite a ride!

anyway, let's get to it.
PAPER.

one of the images I took inspiration from,
via Em's pinterest board:


sketchbook shhtuff:


The colors were mainly bright greens and a light peach,
very similar to her gorgeous wedding bouquet:

oh, hi Em!

but I took a few liberties and pumped up the peaches
to a brighter, more energetic orange
(think the deep orange shadows of those peach roses),
which I thought would fit their summer wedding vibe a little more.

here's a little mood board of the invite elements:

so the vibe? 
fresh and easygoing,
florals and lots of green, chubby leaves.

aaaaand..
the final product!
off the press and topped with a cute little green bow:



glad we got to put these pretty engagement pictures to use,
from who else?  
Margarette Sia, of course.





the other paper items ran with the same feel,
i like how their names fit together here on the program:



the menus and name cards doing their thing, day of:

 

amazing setup, yeah??
