Repondez s'il vous plait...

It is the first glimpse of the celebration that's to come. Perhaps that is why so many couples spend HOURS, often to the detriment of the groom's emotional well being, selecting just the right invitation. My favorites are often simple, creative, unique and well made. Why not make something that your guests will treasure as a keepsake?

Here are a few of my recent favorites!




The above three beauties are from oblation letterpress. I love the modern/vintage feel!



This unique design is from Modern Invitation Design, an Oklahoma company!!


An updated classic from Whitney English, based right here in OKC.


Although this sample from Whitney English is shown for a shower, I think it would make a unique statement as a wedding invitation, perhaps for a brunch celebration held at one of Oklahoma's many historic homes?




This poster style invite from Elum would be a welcome and unexpected treat for guests of a couple in the news or entertainment business!





This beautiful suite called "Orangerie" is from Dauphine Press. Guests would look forward to a summer evening event held at an orchard or maybe in your parents backyard?



Other "invitation-ers" that may inspire are Milkfed Press, Bella Figura, PaperSource and Julie Holcomb Printers

One other interesting invite worth noting... and this must have taken untold hours to complete. If you have a moment, take a look at this amazing video invitation!
