Tessa and Chase Part I- A Vintage Country Wedding

 
This couple's style absolutely blew us away! Chase proposed to Tessa in late August, but with his rigorous schedule touring as a dancer, they wanted to get married as soon as possible. We enlisted the help of the talented Williamson County Weddings and just two short months later we had a one of our most beautiful weddings yet. In addition to having a sharp dressed bridal party with amazing style, the couple decided to be creative and have their ceremony on the hillside under a tree, with guests seated on covered straw bales. Tessa was no less than stunning walking up the hill and there was not a dry eye in the crowd when she reached Chase at the altar. Live music by their talented friends added a beautifully personal touch to the ceremony, and everyone got a great laugh out of the couple's unexpected choice of Michael Jackson's "Wanna Be Starting Something" as a recessional song.

Trends in Wedding Invitations for 2011

Eco- Friendly Papers
Eco-chic is cool, not to mention it fits perfectly with the "Anthropologie-esque" wedding craze. The wide range of available eco-friendly papers makes having wedding invitations that are lovely AND earth friendly easier than ever before. As always, our standard printing paper 100% cotton that is made from the by products of textile mills in a wind powered factory, but the options don't stop there.

Paper embedded with wildflower seeds can be planted after use to grow a beautiful reminder of your special day.

Tinted kraft paper, shown above in olive, creates a more customized look than standard brown kraft paper.


Shades of Turquoise

Teal, aqua, turquoise, and all their color wheel neighbors are in demand this year, and are sure to carry over to 2011. In fact, Pantone has named turquoise the Color of the Year for 2010.

Line Art

Brides are drawn to invitations with line art because they are elegantly simple and classy. It also evokes that vintage feel that is so popular right now.
