zach and missy’s wedding invitations

My husband’s cousin Missy was married in June.  I had the honor of designing their wedding invitations.  Missy knew exactly what she wanted when I first met with her in December.  She had already decided that her bridesmaids were going to wear tiffany blue dresses, she knew she wanted the invitations to look elegant and she knew she wanted a booklet style wedding invitation.

I sent missy paper samples and designed a few options for her.  This was the first time I have ever designed booklet inviations.  They came together pretty quickly – although it was harder to do than usual with my pregnant belly not wanting to bend much when cutting, folding and tying ribbons to 200 invites. 

Here is the outside of the invitation and the envelope.  I made wrap labels to match and Missy addressed them.  The invitations were pretty heavy because we did an inner wrap around the invitation, and they cost extra to mail because they were square invites – something to consider when you are trying to stay within a budget.

Here is the first page of the invitation.  This is the verse that the couple selected.

This is the inside of the invitation with the ceremony information.

It was a beautiful ceremony and a fun reception.  My two boys and their pregnant mommy enjoyed the massive candy bar they had!  Congratulations Missy and Zach!

summertime

Summer has not always been my favorite season.  Maybe it was the summer basketball camp and outdoor games that made me mad at the heat.  It could also be the fact that my family did not have air conditioning.  It could also be that I am really pale and burn easily and sunless tanners were not perfected in my teenage days.  But now that I am a mom, I have central air and sunless tanning lotion, I love the summer!  I have even enjoyed this summer being extremly pregnant.  I love going to the beach or the pool.  I love not having a regular schedule.  I love having the kids stay up late and sleep in.  I love that it stays light outside until 9:00.  I love eating lots of ice cream (that might be because I am pregnant – but the boys are taking advantage of it).  I love visiting with family.  I love baseball and fireworks and parades… there are too many things to list!

I saw this idea on a few blogs and decided to make a summer bucket list for our family.  It has been really fun crossing out the things on our list and looking forward to the activities to come.  Jackson who is six loves to read all of the items… he keeps waiting for us to make slime.
