Invitations!

Earlier this week, our wedding invites went out! I'm getting reports that most of them were delivered today, except a few that went out late. Anyways, I used many Tokidoki graphics to create these, along with my minimal photoshop skills. I got the envelopes from Paper Presentation and the cost was pretty low for how much I <3 them!!

Less than 2 months away...*eek*!! Still so much to do, but overall I think we are doing pretty well.

I'm super busy with my store, but I wanted to share with you guys. If anyone has any pictures from the bridal shower, I'd love to share them on here, so please email them my way!

Tokidoki themes

Tokidoki's art is a jam-packed landscape of cartoon-y fun...filled with hundreds of different elements to create a whimsical, joyful feeling. That's the type of vibe I'd like to incorporate. His art has several different themes that are very prominent throughout years of work. Some, I've figured out how to incorporate and some, I'm not sure I should. I want to throw them out there to see if any of your creative brains can come up with something magical. I have faith =)

Here are just a few:
- Diamonds (often with cartoon faces, but hey)

These will be easy...there already on some of the vases and, the always fun, huge table decor diamonds

- Lollipops in the candy bar and maybe even the table decor! You can get them in so many colors, swirl patterns, and sizes!

- Cherry Blossoms - most likely these will be in the cake AND I'd love to find trees for the ceremony spot...but I'm not sure how likely this will be for Ohio in October. I found LED trees, but I can't decide if that's ridiculously fun or ridiculously yikes.

- Wraped Candy (well, vampire wrapped candy) - in the candy bar and maybe table decorations?
- Sparrows
- Stars
- Hearts (Balloons!)
- Clouds - Rainbows - Lightning

- Skulls
- Music (Records, notes, MP3 players, boomboxes)
- Cows
- Daisies
- Milk Cartons
- Pink Haired Ladies (CHECK!)

Now, obviously, I do not want a cow decorations. But, if anything inspires you guys, I'd love to hear it!

For your viewing pleasure...

Tokidoki is providing the inspiration for this wedding. I want the wedding to be centered around the idea that if Adios and Ciao Ciao were real, this is how they would throw a party. Whimsical and cheeky, but still pulled together and nice. Oh, and obviously, not so rainbow =)
