So yes, Brian and I finally have an official wedding date AND location!
We are getting married August 26th, 2011 @ Emerson Park in Auburn NY!!!
Any of you who have been following the blog or have read any of my previous posts might be a little surprised by this, it's not in the fall and it's a Friday night?!?!?! We went to Emerson Park a few weekends ago to check it out, fell in love with the building and scenery there and called right away to schedule our date, however every Saturday in 2011 was booked already!
So we decided to sacrifice the day and go with a non-traditional Friday night wedding and we couldn't be more pleased!
Anyway the basis of this post is to talk about Wedding Invites.
My opinion about invites, and basically the details of a wedding is that there should be a common theme or idea that carries though every aspect, something to really tie everything together.
We really wanted to make sure everything tied in together and there was just a elegant and professional and uniform feel to every aspect of our wedding!
My good friend Jason (designer by day) offered to design our wedding stationary and we gave him total creative reign! I just let him know our colors, where our wedding was being held, and that we wanted a modern look to everything!
Well, we couldn't have been more happy with the ideas that Jason presented us with!
We met at Panera last night and Jason presented us with 4 different, completely unique, personalized, amazing drafts for Save-the-Dates, wow were we impressed! (I'm going to see if I can get his permission to post them on here)
Each one had a different style monogram of our initials, incorporated all our colors in elegant and modern ways, it was so hard to choose just one! And we didn't have to pick just one, the best part about it is that we can pick and chose different aspects of each on that we like and change it around (not something you can do with online - print at home invites)
I would definitely recommend Jason to each and every one of you who is looking to have amazing wedding invites done that are unique to you and will stand out from the rest! And they don't have to be the standard invite either, he was mentioning to us how he designed a CD insert for a couple who were sending out different CDs as their invite, so the sky is the limit!
Jason's website is The Creative Details
He is in the process of updating his site so if you'd like to contact him directly email jasoncapello1@hotmail.com
Again, Brian and I couldn't be more happy with what Jason has designed for us! I recommend him to anyone who is looking to have invites done, or really any type of design work!
