A Vintage Inspired Floral Wedding Photo Shoot in Blue & Green

I was thrilled when Maribel of EightTreeStreet asked me if I would like to design a wedding invitation and corresponding paper goods for a photo shoot. I couldn't say no to having the chance to design something fresh with a vintage look in the hot summer color trends of blue and green. So here is the beautiful floral summer shoot with a hint of vintage style that was inspired by my paper creations . PS: the paper goods are available for purchase in my etsy shop, including the lily of the valley invitation and forget me not place cards

Popular Wedding Pattern : Chevron {with billy balls and anemones}
​chevron wedding invitations - popular pattern

If my etsy shop sales are any indication, chevron is definitely a hot pattern for weddings. I'm currently working on 3 printable invitation suites for weddings and bridal showers that feature chevron in the background. Plus, I'm getting ready to start a 4th suite with a custom flower request {sweet peas} on the chevron background. Each of the 3 orders shown above feature different color combinations and I'm loving each one. Particularly the brown that was requested with my hand-drawn billy balls {craspedia}

One of my favorite parts of invitation suites is seeing what the bride wants to say for the "accepts/declines" lines on the RSVP cards. The cards above say:

____ See Y'all There

____ Sorry, Can't Make It

------------------------------------------------------

____ Gladly Accepts

____ Regretfully Declines
