Wedding Invites

I have at last finished the day and evening invites for my brothers wedding in April!!!

I used white and silver card embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder and silver ribbon.

The designs and colours were chosen by my SIL to be after I made several samples for her to choose from. The save the dates were similar to the evening invitations and were sent out last summer.

Only the table plan, order of services, menus, place cards, thank you cards and flower girl cards to go!
I'm off to Wales this weekend to give all 3 boxes of them to Rhiannon (my brothers fiance) and to go to a christening (I'll upload the card I made for it when I come back as I don't want them to see it).
This afternoon I am making chocolate brownies to take with me for Andrew and Rhiannon who are putting us up for the weekend. After the success of my chocolate cake I now have an obsession for baking!

Hi Sarah,

These are stunning - what a lot of work, but I am sure they will be over the moon with them. I have some to do for my step son and his fiance who are getting married in New York in August. Just waiting for Laura to make up her mind on what it is that she wants!
Have a great weekend and enjoy the christening.

These invitations are so beautiful and I am sure they look much better in person. I would like to see the rest of them too (the other samples, the table plans...) I made more than 1,000 wedding invitations in the past 3 years. I should count thrm one day :P

I LOVE your SIL name.I would like to give my children Celtic names, but my husband does not agree.
