Wedding Invitation Mistakes to Avoid

Yesterday I met with Fairy Godmother Weddings, based out of Simpsonville, South Carolina. The owner, Becky, is a very experienced and fantastic wedding planner.  I definitely recommend her if you are looking for a wedding planner in the Upstate South Carolina area. Recently she posted helpful information on her blog about common wedding invitation mistakes that can be easily avoided. Check it out on the Fairy Godmother Weddings blog. Thanks, Becky, for a great meeting!

Letterpress Business Cards for Green Apple Weddings

Thought I would share with you a project I completed not too long ago.  I designed and letterpress printed the business cards for a good friend of mine, Kate O’Donnell Diaz of Green Apple Weddings and Events.  Kate’s business is based out of NYC and Connecticut, and she specializes in “green, eco-friendly” event design. The top picture shows a few sketches of the logo, and the bottom picture shows the final design after I letterpress printed using brown and transparent green apple colored ink. The type is hand set using vintage metal type! Contact me if you need letterpress business cards.
