Asian and Southern Brunch Wedding Invitations
by Ann
My fiance and I chose our colors based on our mutual love of peach roses (he's given them to me at every special occasion) and our wedding venue, which will be a modern-decorated restaurant in downtown Charleston, South Carolina (where my family is originally from). The navy blue is taken from the restaurant's decor, and the gold is our accent color. We gocco'ed our wedding invitations, getting supplies from Paper Source and designing our own invitations around a theme of "eat, drink and be married" (since we both love to eat and cook and drink wine). The design originated from a desire to have a clean, simple invitation with a modern feel. I'm not a super floral person, so I didn't want any graphics. We ordered Japanese washi paper and cut it ourselves into strips for belly bands, and I made round monograms using a 1" paper punch, then threaded the the monograms through a gold cord before tying the invites. We LOVE how they turned out and are receiving so many compliments on them!
