The
focus of this post is my sister. She has found the man of her dreams
and she sure does have some ideas as to how she wants her invitations
designed when she does get married! She is a horse lover and lived out
in Colorado for almost 10 years. She came across this wine called the
Show which featured letterpress labels from a company called Hatch Show
Prints. Hatch Show prints creates "Gig" posters. They are awesome and I
hope one day to get down to Nashville and take a tour of their shop.
Here is a link to their site. http://countrymusichalloffame.org/our-work/
Her
save the date is a version of a Hatch "Gig" poster and the wine label
combined, please note the Cowboy art is low resolution. I told her when she gets engaged I will get a hi res version! The
save the date is a 3 color design and has a holder for the save the
date with a black band or ribbon. The monogram could be carried through
out the invite or other items being used in the wedding. The monogram is
made to look like a bandanna folded. The envelope is personalized with
touches from the save the date and the monogram. The invite is still in
the works and once that is complete I will post.

I saw this article on the knot.com and thought it would be nice to write about it. From time to time I suggest color combos on my blog. I figured I would mention this article because it cover so many options and that is awesome. I am a fan of bright colors and loved the green and orange combos. Another one I that I liked was the silver and gold. I have used those colors independently of each other but never together! The yellow, gray and silver is also popular as I have just completed a design for a client in those colors (I will post pics when I have spare moment). All these color combos are great and the next spec design(s) I start working on I will have to remind myself to refer to this article. If you have not decided on a color scheme or are looking for ideas check this article out!

The latest creation to come from Hitched is the Temecula wedding invitation suite. Designed in a bright purple, chartreuse, casaba and brown (however it does not have to stay that way) reflects a vineyard color scheme but does not go full on vineyard with a grape vine design. This design incorporates a vignette design with a serif and sans serif font, airing out the design with tracking, kerning and leading. A simple but striking invitation suite that includes the invitation, rsvp card, map, outer envelope, rsvp envelope. We also took it a little farther incorporating a menu, wine bottle tag, place card and table number. Take a look... And of course you do not need to get married in a vineyard to love this design!
