show and tell #4 - mandy and trevor's wedding invitation

Last Christmas my brother proposed to his girlfriend by spelling out "will you marry me" in christmas lights, in the backyard snow. It was pretty freak'n romantic!! I felt a little special to be there with him when he was figuring out how many lights he needed (way underestimated) and to congratulate them in person. They are two really awesome people and we're all really excited for 08.08.08 to come around.

Having a graphic designer sister is one thing, but a wedding invitation specialist (my words) is a whole other thing!! Trevor and Mandy immediately involved us in their wedding day planning, with my encouragement, and because they're family, you really want to WOW everyone and show what you can do. I'm pretty sure most of my family still don't know what I do every day...but that's ok...they are going to learn very soon! The invitations are done!! Just knowing that Mandy and Trevor did a happy dance when they received their invitations in the mail makes it all worth while. My job here is done.

Here's a little sneak peek of their wedding invitations. Printed on 100% recycled stock.
