These wedding invitations from designer and illustrator Tabitha Emma are so incredibly sweet.  Tabitha created the invitations for her own wedding in Australia, incorporating her own hand lettering, illustrations of Australian flora and fauna, and vintage-inspired elements like a custom illustrated map.  The entire invitation suite was packaged in kraft paper envelopes and twine.  So pretty!

From Tabitha: Before designing the invitations, I wrote down a list of everything that was very ‘us’ to help create an invitation that reflected us as a couple.  We both love old things, vintage, brown paper, string, and nature.  My fiance grew up in the country and we will be moving out there for the first year or so of our marriage, and so I wanted the invitations to also have a natural country feel.

It also has a bit of an Australian bush influence, as we live in Australia, and the design features Australian fauna.  As we both love history and old things, I gave the map a very vintage feel.  The background was based on an old Sydney map.  And the suburb typography was also taken from old Sydney maps.  It is a combination of old and new.

 

Thanks Tabitha!
