Happy Friday everyone!  Are you looking forward to the weekend?  I'm finding myself a bit wiped out after this week, so I'm looking forward to sleeping in, doing some painting and organizing, and hopefully checking out the plant sale at the National Arboretum this weekend.  But in the meantime…

Floral Garden Party Wedding Invitations

Happy Earth Day everyone!  So in honor of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, I thought I’d share these beautiful garden party wedding invitations from Paisley Quill, letterpress printed on beautiful (and eco-friendly) 100% cotton paper:

I’m absolutely loving these soft pink colors for spring – from the rose-colored ink on the main wedding invitation to the pale pink invitation backing and envelopes.  Soft and elegant, and of course incredibly pretty.

Watercolor Bicycle Wedding Invitations

I love pretty much everything the ladies of Bird and Banner create.  And as if we needed any more proof that Erin and Nicole are complete creative geniuses, check out these awesome watercolor bicycle wedding invitations that they created for a wedding last year:

I absolutely adore the charming hand-lettering on the main invitation — not to mention the gorgeous vintage map enclosure.  Bird and Banner also created the escort cards, which you can see right here!
