As I
shared about a week ago, my wedding shower is set for February 13th and I am sooo excited! Unlike most brides, this will be the only shower I will be having. And unlike most brides, I had a good deal of involvement in the planning process for the shower. My maid of honor lives over 7 hours away so needless to say it wasn't possible for her to plan the shower. My mom is having to do almost everything for it but she's loving it and she's asked some of her good friends (who I know well) to help her out. I created the invitations for the shower and am ready to share the design with you all now that everyone has received the invites!

I have always loved the "Love Is" cartoons and have also always wanted to somehow incorporate them into the wedding. With the shower invitations, I figured out how! I just love how they came out. However about halfway through making them, I was seriously wishing I hadn't decided to do ribbon on both the front and back of the invites, that was some tedious work! But it totally paid off!
So what do you think? Have you been more involved in the planning and details of your shower than you ever expected?

They look adorable! And purple ribbon - go figure! ;P I am also having one shower, on February 21st! :) But I am not allowed to be involved in the planning at all. My sister (MOH) is throwing the shower for me and has a little help from my BM's but it is mostly a surprise. I kind of like it that way...I did a lot of little surprises when throwing my sister's shower for her and am looking forward to seeing what they come up with for me. So fun! It's exciting to realize how close we are now...crazy.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even have a shower! My maid of honor was living in Ohio while I planned my Florida wedding. :D
ReplyDeleteYour invites, like everything else you've made, are gorgeous. Well done!
Those are really nice, great job!
ReplyDeleteI would hope to not be too involved with my own but then again it has it's perks because obviously like you did, you were able to make some fabulous invitations that someone else might not have. I think you did a great job with these invites! I am hoping that if they need help they will ask me :)
ReplyDeleteYour wedding planning is coming along Fabulously!
This looks so cute! I love "Love Is..." as well! Very very nice. Good job! :)
