How fun!  In these invitations from Lauren at The Creative Parasol, Emily and Matt were inspired by their German heritage and German beer for the design of their wedding invitations.  It’s probably a good thing that my husband didn’t realize this was an option back when we were choosing our own wedding invitations!  Lauren and Emily drew their inspiration from vintage folk patterns, crewel embroidery, and beer packaging to come up with a whimsical and colorful design.

From Lauren: Emily and Matt had three important ingredients for their wedding: German. Folk. Beer.  In coming up with the design, Emily and I were inspired by vintage folk patterns, specifically old crewelwork and embroidery designs.  The inspiration for the typography came from some of the great beer packaging, specifically Shiner, whose brewery is just outside of Austin.

 

Thanks Lauren!
