Marissa + Tom’s Aqua Blue Faux Bois Wedding Invitations

Happy Monday everyone!  I’m starting off the week with a playful set of wedding invitations from Allie Ruth Design that combines aqua and faux bois!  Together with yellow stitching and a selection of cute vintage stamps, the invitation suite has a sweet and quirky vibe perfect for an incredibly sweet couple.

From Allie:  I made these invitations for my friends, Tom and Marissa.  I am so honored that I had the opportunity to custom-design wedding invitations for this couple.  They are so much fun and a really sweet people.  They came to me with a loose vision of what they wanted – a vintage-inspired design with faux bois on aqua paper, stitched details, and real lace belly bands.  The rest was up to me!

I decided to go for a “formal and quirky” feel with these, bringing in the glassine envelopes, ribbon banner labels, and bright yellow thread.  I think the vintage stamps are my favorite part – the colors go so well with the rest of suite!

  2. Lindsay, these envelopes are USPS guaranteed. There were no shipping problems at all – I’ll admit, I was a little surprised, myself.

  3. Amazing! and, i was just about to ask about the shipping, but i’m glad it went through!

  6. This is a gorgeous invitation suite! I love the clear envelopes. Any tips on where to find such bright and beautiful faux bois paper? I only seem to be able to find it in wood/earth tones and white. I love the bright bold colour of the aqua paper.
