Megan + Mike’s Modern Organic Chicago Wedding Invitations

01/03/2012

Happy New Year everyone!  We’re getting back to business and starting the new year off with a gorgeous wedding invitation suite from Megan of Ruby the Fox.  You may remember Megan’s awesome stitched save the dates from last April, and I’m just as much in love with her wedding invitations.  Megan wanted to keep the design simple and understated, with modern details in the blind impression letterpress elements, gorgeous calligraphy from Angelique Ink, and a custom garland illustration by the talented Shanna Murray.  So beautiful!

From Megan: Being a stationery designer, I knew our invitations had to be special, represent us as a couple, and reflect our vision for our wedding.  We chose to go very understated, organic, and simple with a clean color palette.

We utilized some amazingly talented vendors to make our vision come together.  We commissioned Shanna Murray to create the beautiful one-of-a-kind garland we used throughout the wedding suite.  Angi Phillips of Angelique Ink graced us with her gorgeous calligraphy and we found vintage stamps through The Paper Nickel Stamp Company.  We lined the envelopes in a white tissue paper which was possibly the only traditional part of the entire suite!
