Lauren Covington custom save the date gold foil post card save the date wedding paper weddings

For Stef and Sam's Save the Date, we started with this adorable photo of the couple in Bar Harbor, Maine, where they would be tying the knot. Gold foil was a must for this bride, and a simple moose design was a fun nod to the groom's last name and to fauna of Maine.

Brianna and Max's San Antonio summer wedding invitations started with a dusty blue paper, Rifle Paper Co.'s emerald peony patter for envelope liners, and pops of green and pink to match.  This couple met in college at Trinity University in San Antonio, so they definitely wanted to include a fun wedding map with all their favorite San Antonio hot spots.  For a little bit of glamor, we had their monogram foil-stamped onto the return address and at the top of the invitation.

No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death.
