My Invitations!

Today’s an exciting day! All of my guests have received all of the vow renewal info so I can finally share with all of you!!! First up, the invitations!

The envelopes were lovingly hand-addressed by the amazing Laura Hooper and the look was completed by vintage stamps, purchased via ebay (some are more vintage than others!).

The stamps were (mostly) selected carefully.  There were several baseball stamps – if you’ll recall, our Welcome Party is at Turner Field.

The finished invitation – 6×8, engraved on 700 gsm natural white card.  The edges were beveled and gilded in gold.  The little flourish appeared on our Save the Dates and will be around at the vow renewal.  :)  The details forthcoming in the bottom left corner let guests know that the invitation would have a follow-up mailing, which you’ll see later today!
