This week’s real wedding invitations come to us from Stephanie at Salt + Pepper Press – and they’re inspired by all things Texas!  Stephanie and her husband Robbie were married at Three Points Ranch in the heart of Texas in early May.  From the beginning, Stephanie and Robbie set out to create a true country Texas-style wedding – from a custom cattle brand to cowboy boots!
From Stephanie:Â Our goal was to make our wedding as tastefully Texan as possible. Â We wanted to really emphasize that this was going to be a laidback ranch wedding with the whole cowboy feel and we wanted to make sure that feeling was present in the invitations.
First we created our custom cattle brand, which is actually an S R G – our initials and the first letter of his last name.  In Texas, every ranch has its own brand that they use as their trademark from branding cattle to their logo and identity.  We wanted to create the same kind of brand that stood for us and our wedding.  From there we developed the invitation suite.
To make sure that we pushed the ranch theme, we backed every invitation with wood veneer and branded it with our custom made cattle brand. Â We also made belly bands out of the wood that wrapped around the wedding invitations and branded that as well.
To take it one step further, we made a poster that reminded our guests of the iconic WANTED poster from the west and that we used instead of a enclosure card with reception information. Â We had so much fun creating, printing and assembling the invitations!
Stephanie also sent over a bunch of photos from her wedding, courtesy of two pair photography, showing how she incorporated elements from the invitations into her Texas ranch wedding!

Where did those awesome paper cut banners come from? They are amazing!!!
Where did you get your brand made? Is it a stamp or something else? I am looking to do something similar for my wedding. Thanks for the idea 🙂
Where can I buy a stamp made up to look like a brand?..would like to use this idea for my wedding as well.
