Angela + Jake | wedding invitations

I now pronounce them husband and wife, therefore, I will publish their wedding invitations to the webs!

Jake is my cousin, and I offered to create their wedding invites the day he proposed to Angela ... okay maybe that is an exaggeration, but it was a while ago. Lucky for me, they said yes! They are a super fun couple so I knew that I would have a lot of creative freedom with the design. Jake is from the Seattle area, and Angela, well she's from everywhere. When I asked them what they were going for with the theme of their wedding they said: Seattle, fun and pink (that was more Angela than Jake, you may have guessed that). They were married on Sunday, July 3rd in Georgetown (a super hip part of South Seattle).

I wish them the best in their marriage and I am so happy I was able to be apart of it. Cheers to the bride and groom!

Sneak Peak | Lynn + Scott

Over the weekend I did a lot of printing -- here is a little sneak peak of the biggest job -- a wedding suite for Lynn and Scott. Lynn was my neighbor growing up, so it was extra fun to design and print these for her! More photos to come soon!

Expert Advice, BDR-studio at Martha Stewart Weddings

Someone decided that I am an expert, and when that someone is Martha Stewart, the least that I can do is agree! When Erin at Martha asked me to contribute, it was like, 'oh heck yes!' -- so off I went , expert-ing it up!

She asked me to write something short and sweet that would give brides-(and grooms)-to-be the insider scoop. Believe it or not, I create a lot of wedding invitations (I do not create a lot of photographic evidence of them), so I figured the theme, Wedding Invitation Inspiration, would fit the bill. Check out all that I had to say here.

P.S. I still can't believe this happened, OMG.
