I couldn’t be more excited! Remember Jeff and Jessica? We designed their invitation and wedding stationery a while ago. They have just been featured on the Southern Weddings blog! Click here for part one and part two. Their photographs were all taken by Josh McCullock.

It’s been a while since we have a Wedding Wednesday in this blog. I promise you, you’ll love this one. Do you remember these fabric invitations we did for Jeff & Jessica’s wedding last Fall?

Well, I was such at joy today to find out that Josh McCullock, the photographer of the big day, has posted tons of photos on his blog of the actual wedding day. Jessica was a friend of mine and it was such a bummer that I couldn’t come to the big day, but Josh did such a wonderful job capturing the day!

Jessica looks so pretty! The birdcage veil and the feathery hair accessories looks amazing on her.

She also mostly DIY the decorations. Don’t you love the old photos hung on tree bark? And of course the mason jar. Looks so lovely and really fits the vintage-barn wedding theme!

The ring-bearer also held responsible bearing a wagon filled with baby flower girls. How cute is that?! The ceremony takes place outside the barn.

Love this “tree lighting” inside the barn, which is where the reception was held. The color combination is one of my favorites! We actually did some labels too for their food buffet with matching design to their invitation. Wish I could show them to you!

Too cute for words! I want to nominate Bakerella as the cutest baking website in the whole universe. Don’t you just love those wedding cake lollipops? They were actually made for proposal purpose, but I think it’s such a cute wedding favor idea! Read the whole proposal story here.

The Fall season is almost here. Or, is it here already? The wedding inspiration board below was originally inspired by the tree pattern on Little Pretty Studio’s Hoop-Dee-Doo Bulletin Board. I think it’s a great idea to have several bulletin boards like that as a place card display on a wedding, particularly this one. I think it’s vintage and quirky. After the wedding, they can be used as bulletin boards at home!

I would also imagine that this kind of wedding would be happening under a big oak tree in Fall season’s perfect weather. I imagine it would be so appropriate for the invitation and stationery to be made from wood sheet.

It’s a great season to fall in love! :)

By the way, after all these times looking at pretty wedding eyecandies all across blogs, believe it or not, this is my first attempt at creating an inspiration board :) It’s an awesome experience, thanks to Style Circle! Now I’m addicted :)

How lovely are those invitation by Erin Jang! I’m all for whimsical illustrations and this one is just so charming. The couple is getting married at Smog Shoppe, a green exotic urban space with a lot of succulents and hanging gardens, from which Erin was inspired.

Last Spring, we created this invitation suite for a chic, fun and contemporary wedding at a gorgeous city club in the heart of Atlanta! Nita and Edward shared the same last name initial, which makes a fun monogram. The invitation is a combination of the bride’s fondness of “French-ish” decorative elements and the couple’s modern city wedding style.

Custom monogram, custom map, embossed hard-cover invitation, custom die-cut envelopes. It was such a fun project!

Nita and Edward (Edo) happened to be our very-very good friend and we attended the wedding last Spring. The wedding was so beautiful, intimate, touching, yet so fun. The wedding was shot by the oh-so-talented Lifebox Studio. See it for yourself!

And more jaw-dropping photos…
