About Custom Wedding Invitations
What makes Blush & Blue Designs unique?
One designer, one project. Since I’m an artist, calligrapher, and designer we can create your wedding invitations all in one process instead of needing to outsource to multiple locations.
I make it personal. Because of the above, you and I can get super specific with styles, colors, and artwork for each piece of your stationery from the invitation suite all the way through day-of pieces like menus, place card displays, and signage.
Keeping it easy peasy. The process feels like an easy, refreshing burst of energy and you won’t have to feel like you need to constantly check-in to see how things are going, or worry that you’re forgetting about a key part of your invitations.
Organized and on-time. From the moment you book with me I start creating an actionable plan for us to reach your stationery goals and ensure we have everything we need to get started.
All-inclusive design process. This will be the least stressful part of your planning because I take care of everything, from sketching and designing to ordering materials, printing, and even assembling, addressing, and mailing your final invites so you don’t have to lift a finger. See what’s included in all my suites below.
Do you already know you want Blush and Blue Designs to create your dream wedding invitation suite?
Let’s put a stop to that endless searching.
Chances are the invitation design process has sent you down a search engine rabbit hole.
As your stationery designer, it’s my job to get to know you in an easy and approachable way that is sooo less stressful than frantically searching the internet for all the answers.
Working with me you get access to:
My timing expertise. I know the best timelines to send invitations for all weddings, be it an elopement, a few states away or a few countries away I’ll make sure everything is headed out on time.
Address etiquette. Yes, I know the proper way to address that fancy senator on your guest list and the proper way to include an unmarried couple living together - to name a few :) Bonus points: every envelope is calligraphed so you know they’ll look stunning.
Knowing the mail is taken care of. Because I take care of weighing everything and getting the correct postage, I know exactly how much postage your suite needs before I put everything in the mail for you. Means less returned mail, mitigating those dreaded machines chomping away at your precious invitations, and absolutely no schlepping to the post office for you!
Writing guidance. I guess this one goes without saying as an invitation designer, but there are plenty of etiquette situations both traditional and modern, and wording considerations that can be included within your design. Don’t spend another second trying to figure out how to cut and paste your way to the best wording possible for your situation. I take care of all the heavy lifting in figuring out exactly how we need to word your invitations to not only respect your traditions but ensure the accuracy of the information being conveyed.
Seriously, any dread of just “how am I going to hand-address 200 wedding envelopes?” ends here.
