"Irresistibly simple and sophisticated, the Hummingbird handwriting can perfectly set the scene for your day. Each card from the 'Letters' collection can stand alone or be mixed in with our other designs. The letters collection looks fabulous in all the card ranges, but works particularly well on the white cards... contour and laid, with any colour ribbon and! Add a sparkling diamante to really make them stand out. The range includes: save the date, R.S.V.P., day and evening invitations, order of service, order of the day, menu, place cards, favour tags, table plans, table numbers and thank you cards."

Searching for the perfect tree inspired wedding invitation....

Wow. I say wow. The is something I imagine would be in a fantasy filled children's book. Love it.

This is just one seller on Etsy I am obsessed with since deciding on using trees to tie in the details of our wedding. Her work is beautiful. No, flowers don't always grow on trees, but they should! Her work is customizable too! Woot Woot! I wonder how I can get a customized wooden tree box on my registry? Hmmmmmmm....

You are now a witness to the fact that I have always had a hard time making up my mind. So I just let go of this "to-d0" on my planning list so I don't have to make a decision. When it came to picking out an invitation, which is what reflects the central theme of your wedding by providing a few details of the type of event guests can expect, I was lost. Having a fall wedding I couldn't ignore my love for fall foliage in pulling and invitation together.

So, my Step Mother is having her niece, Laura, who is a student at an art school in Los Angles, take all of the elements that I have been lamenting over and create a wedding invitation just for me! What a fantastic way to have something unique while saving some money by giving an up-and-comer a chance. I CAN'T WAIT to see how they turn out.

The first invitation and color scheme I fell in love with was from good ol' Hello Lucky!. I just love this company. I am hoping to find any excuse to use them, even if it is just for thank you cards. I'm just spending my days browsing the library, surfing the net, and daydreaming. Of course, all while keeping my own personal pesky budget in mind!
