My wedding invites

Patrick and I are enthusiastically counting down the days until our wedding (23!!!!). Although we haven't driven ourselves crazy with some of the more *ambitious* craft projects, Pat and I have really enjoyed putting a little bit of our artistic personalities into this special day. These are the invites:

We bought an invite kit from Target and then dressed it up a little bit. I printed all of them off on my DeskJet printer (still going strong after 7 years!). Patrick designed and cut the wraps for the invites using pretty paper from the art store and some ribbon.

He also drew the illustration for the reception card and I created the map on the back.



Then we had a little assemly line!






We are not having a professional photographer for the wedding because many of our friends take great pictures. Instead we put these little notes in the invites asking guests to upload to our online photo album hosted by http://www.theweddinglens.com Great site and a great way to save $$$$!

I'd love to share some more of our projects with you in future posts. What are some of your favorite wedding craft ideas?
