Mary Ellen and Jason

I met with Mary Ellen and Jason yesterday evening for their consultation. Their wedding sound slike a blast, they are having a very casual ceremony and picnic reception at Meadow Ridge Farm in Windsor, Ohio. It is a huge field of 140 acres with a pond where they've had festivals and concerts. They are having a tons of activities at their reception and are offering the option for their guests to camp out that night as well. Sounds like fun! They wanted an outdoorsy invitation, we discussed a floral image in yellow, forest green, and pink on white stock with a tropical green backing layer and a tropical green outer envelope. I can't wait for them to get their sample!
Here's photos of their sample:

Incorporating Wedding Colors into your Invitations and Inspiration

Do you have your wedding color (s) picked out yet? Are you having a theme with specific colors? If not, and you are having trouble choosing, remember that inspiration can come from anywhere. It could be the color of your favorite flower, the lace from your wedding dress, the colors of your ceremony/reception venue, or from the season in which your wedding will take place. Are you getting married in a church, on a beach, at a resort, or a garden? All of these venues have different elements that can be brought into your wedding invitations. What are your and your fiance's personalities - do you love taking photos? a photo invitation would be ideal, do you love to travel? this can be incorporated. We at JDK Invitations can help you if you feel you are stuck and cannot think of ideas.
