We all share of a love paper goods and paper designs. Having a little tag, the right font, a cute logo, etc are the elements that go into the final product of the paper products. Overall, these elements make or break a wedding if you ask me!
So check out Liz’s magic when it came to her invitions! She did every single part herself after countless hours, researching her style, refining the placement, and creating an extremely cohesive element that went with every other aspect of the wedding.

I love creating invitations and paper goods so it only seemed fitting that I do it myself for my wedding. I spent countless hours getting the invitation just right. I loved the style of bold unique fonts that just speak for themselves. I had a return address stamps and logo stamp made for the wedding which I incorporated into the invitations as well to add an even more personal touch. The invitations ended up coming out beautifully. Of course we decided to use kraft envelopes since we love natural colors.
So how did these DIY invitations come about??

It started with some basic inspiration….

Deciding on the style and the colors…..


Figuring out what fonts and layouts looked best….

Trying some of her own and really honing in on the style of the whole wedding.

Picking the perfect additions to work with the invitations…

Making a few final products…then changing them around again!
Again, here is the finished invitation which I think came out perfect! In the end, it matched the style of the event, incorporated the same details, and turned out to be the perfect glimpse into what was to be expected of her wedding :)

Any DIY invitation makers have some helpful hints???

Ok here is part two of the amazing wedding. Again, this is the venue I am planning to use so it is great to see that someone has actually done a fantastic wedding here!
Just so that everyone doesn’t think I am crazy for being majorly indecisive on this space :), here is the update. I am taking the moms to see the place on Sunday. At this point, unless they point out any insanely major issues, I am going to book it. I do have a few cons keeping me from instant love, the first being the homemade food. I actually have no doubt in my mind that it will turn out to be 100% incredible, but it is the stress of getting to that point that is really killing me. It is obviously just a lot of work.
The other major concern is that the space is just not a wedding set-up. In a way I actually really like that because I hate a lot of cookie cutter wedding venues, but at the same time it takes lots more creativity and pulling in different elements to ensure the space is how it is supposed to be. I am definitely very excited to work with the non-traditional aspect, but in times of wedding inspiration-block, I am nervous that I won’t know where to put anything! Oh my. That probably won’t be the case, but I guess it is worth freaking out about.



SOOO CUTE on the food right! Love the way they did this.

OMG! I am sooo doing milk like this..I am in love :)


One thing I love about this space is the very versatile photography spots! There are so many different places which are all totally different styles. I think that will make for some great diversity!

This is the outside of the building. Not something we would be seeing from the seating in the reception.
OK all, I could REALLY use the help and feedback! What are your thoughts? Cute, not cute, keep looking, do something in particular?? I can’t believe I might actually have a full venue booked in the next week. YAY
I wanted to show off this wedding because it is at the venue I plan on doing mine in! :) I basically googled the venue and searched for images so I could see what other people did, how the space was set up, etc. This completely helped me decide because I could really visualize how it could actually work!
They really wanted a backyard feel to their wedding which they definitely accomplished from the DIY food, to the DIY decor. Everything was made by them from start to finish! This is pretty much what I want to do, so it’s great to see that someone else has accomplished that and gotten published! (This wedding was featured on Ruffled.)
You can’t see too many pictures of the space itself, but what do you think about it?? I would definitely love to hear thoughts, ideas of what I can do with it, etc!

Love the entrance way! I also wanted to hang lanterns which this place is literally perfect for.


Ok, that is just part 1! You can sort of see the space a little in terms of the colors, the nature, the brick etc. It’s all very pretty, and it makes it even better that this wedding is beyond gorgeous!
