Real Wedding

I wanted to write a quick follow-up to yesterday’s Wedding Paper Diva s feature. One of our readers, Anna, sent me a pic of the invitations that she ordered from the site that ultimately inspired the details for her entire wedding! Here are the finished invitations…

The green and black is SO smart, so sophisticated. Anna did an absolutely beautiful job carrying this palette through her entire wedding…

Anna used the words Rustic, Modern and Chic to define her wedding style and she articulated her vision to perfection. Anna has set up a bio site that documents all of her inspirations and ideas, then shows how they came to fruition. She created inspiration boards for every part of her wedding…from her flowers to the fashions. In doing this, she was able to translate her style to each vendor and ended up with a wedding that was her own unique vision.

If you have an hour or so (because the bio site is that good) check out Anna’s Project Wedding Bio Page. It’s filled with stunning inspirations, gorgeous real wedding images, song lists and even a DIY project. It’s a pretty amazing tool for anyone who is planning their wedding!

Wedding Paper Divas

Abby Larson — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:22:00 +0000

I get a lot of emails from brides requesting chic, but affordable invitations. In my opinion, the BEST source for budget friendly but oh-so-fabulous invitations is Wedding Paper Divas. Hands down. They have a huge array of lower, to mid-priced invitations that are incredibly sophisticated design-wise and give you the chance to infuse your wedding stationery with color, personality and most of all…style!

I have to say, I am floored by the selections of styles that Wedding Paper Divas feature. From the whimsical and brightly colored, to the more sophisticated and elegant…there literally is something for every personality, within every budget, from about $1.50 a piece to $15 a piece depending on the printing method you choose.

Without a doubt though, my favorite invitations on the Wedding Paper Diva s site are those designed by Joy Deangdeelert Cho of Oh Joy! and Nanauka Joy. She has such a beautiful design sense…one part vintage chic, one part complete sophistication and her line of invitations for WPD is spot on perfection…

You can see all of Joy’s GORGEOUS designs right here!
