My Wedding Invitation

I've been married for over a year now and finally I have time to post about my wedding invitation.

My wedding invitation is a 2 fold 3 dimensional design, with a custom made fitted envelope.

The envelope was made using a platinum vellum, so that it's translucent enough for you to see the wedding logo. The envelope was made using a scoreboard, scissors and sookwang double sided tape.

Before the envelopes were made, each one was printed on my colour printer with the recipient's mailing address and my return address.

 This was the wedding invitation all folded up. The real invitation is actually a slightly lighter dark grey. This one was the prototype.

I custom made the logo, modifying the Chinese double happiness symbol so that it has subtle hearts in the symbol. Each invitation would have the logo cut out by my Silhouette SD. My poor baby is going to have to cut over 300 logos...

When you open up the wedding invitation completely, you will have 3 silver panels. Each panel will have the wedding invitation, the translated invitation in Chinese or Vietnamese, and the final panel will have one of our engagement photos.

If you close the far right panel, you will see a red pocket panel. This is where I had information on the reception and direction, the ceremony and direction, accommodations for our out of town guests and limited invitation to the Tea Ceremony. It will also include an RSVP note.

I made, with help from Richard and friends, over 200 personalized invitations.
