We take our wedding invitations and snail mail with a side of flair. A hot tangerine envelope liner, gold foil details, horn blowers (why not?), multi-colored confetti dots spilling out of envelopes, and bold stripes and patterns. There’s one place to get it all and that’s Cheree Berry Paper! If gold confetti could come flying out from your screen when we announced that, we’d make it happen. Yes, we get that excited when we talk about paper. And we’re even more excited to share her new designs with you! Just take a look at these suites photographed by Edyta Szyszlo – does it get any more fun than this?

We love this time of the year! May hits, the sun starts to tease us that Summer’s coming, and our inbox gets happy with all kinds of bright weddings and inspiration shoots. Like this super bright and fun neon beauty, conceptualized by Sweet Sunday Events and photographed by Paige Newton Photography. Festive enough for Cinco de Mayo festivities this weekend? We think so!

The altar made with paper garland, rope, and fabric, hung for the happy couple to use as their backdrop. Macrame string displayed hot pink rocks in glass votives to brighten the middle layer. Stunning, right?

Loving the geometric patterns on the suite, designed by The Creative Parasol. The rsvp card check boxes read: HECK YES or aw, shucks.

Fun centerpiece of protea, garden roses, and ranunculus was assembled over a handcrafted leopard print tablecloth with white tassels.

They even included piñatas into their shoot! Take a peek at those geometric ones below. Nice twist on the traditional.

Ok, we’re ready for the weekend to get here. Oh yeah, and Summer too!

We’re getting ready to sign off for the weekend, but not before we can share Silvia + Bryan’s wedding. There was no specific theme per se, but you kind of don’t need one when your venue is a spanish cottage overlooking the ocean. Some gold accents here and there, found drift wood details, a variety of potted succulent escort cards, and a colorful ribbon arch is enough of a vision to keep us through the weekend.

Bryan built the arch they married under and Silvia added her touch by hanging bright ribbon from it.

We’re a fan of escort cards doubling as party favors especially when they’re potted succulents! What lucky guests they had.

gold edged menu

Silvia printed and gold-paint-dipped the thank you/menu cards that were placed at each place setting. The table numbers were also painted/stained/put together by her. I bought unfinished wood craft frames from Michaels ($1 each) and stained them the same color as what went on the wedding arch. I used cardstock purchased at Michaels for the backing and painted the wooden numbers the same gold that I used for the thank you/menu cards and on the “pick a seat” sign for cohesiveness.

succulent and soft pink dahlia centerpieces

Hello, we want these centerpieces! Silvia wanted their centerpieces to look as if they had been plucked from a field… mossy and overflowing… very organic with a combo of white hydrangea, mini green hydrangea, dinner plate dahlias, white ranunculus, artichokes, dusty miller, maiden hair fern, green hypericum, succulents potted, succulents, moss and Manzanita branches.

That fun gold LOVE print came from MadebyGirl.

white cake with succulents

The cake stand was also Bryan’s creation. They found the stump on a slope near their house, hauled it back to their place and cut it to size, polyurethaned it and carved their initials on it.

Quite the handy bunch aren’t they? Congratulations Silvia + Bryan!

There’s a reason the phrase pretty in pink exists, aside from it being an awesome 80s movie. Things just look prettier in blush pink, especially when they’re placed with neutral tones, a touch of sage green from a succulent, vanilla bridesmaid dresses, and groomsmen dressed in denim button-ups. Lovers of pink, this quaint afternoon shoot was designed with you in mind! The blush mercury glass vases, pillar holders, tea lights, and pew marker lanterns all add a touch of sparkle and elegance to the rustic outdoor setting and farm tables made of reclaimed barn wood. Take a look:

White hydrangeas added softness to the tablescape, while the large hurricane vases of pussy willow branches, freesia, and pink peppercorn berries added drama.

We spent Saturday afternoon wandering through Mae Mae Paperie‘s trunk show and gorgeous new line at Urbanic in Venice. You guys, um, it’s really divine. Fresh color combos, beautiful custom patterns, all sorts of customization options, not to mention each collection has its own personality and backstory … we’re in love. Megan is a truly talented designer and artist and we just know that anyone choosing an invite suite from her new line will be making an exceptionally good decision.

Here’s a little peek at the trunk show:

And without further ado, meet Mae Mae’s new collections and adoring personalities … starting with the fabulous Dakota (the mermaid of the bunch):

modern wedding invitations

It has that hint of, “Hey, our wedding may or may not be at the beach, but you’re not going to see any seashells here!”.

Let’s see what Drake (the guy that knows every dance step) has to say:

All you English Lit/Great Gatsby/1920s lovers, we have a feeling this one’s for you! Classic! Anyone else think that liner would make for a heck of a wallpaper? Us too.

Now the lovely Hermie is going to take stage:

These are the sweetheart invitations you’ve been dreaming about since you were a little girlie. The touch of bold pink knocks it out for us! This Hermie – she knows how to party in style.

Watch out Hermie, here comes the oh-so pretty Marlowe (Robin Hood’s long lost sister):

colorful wedding invitations

The bright yellow has us thinking dessert, modern Palm Springs-esque wedding, while the green pattern has us wanting to escape to the woods and celebrate outdoors. What’s a Marlowe to do?

The dapper Oswald (who single-handedly made driving gloves cool again) has something to contribute:

black and white wedding invites

The graphics hit hard on this one and that’s what we’re loving most about this suite. For the modern couple that doesn’t want to go to fem, stay neutral, while making a statement. We dig.

For your romantic side, here’s Quimby:

Mae Mae describes Roxy as the girl that loves to eat and wear coconuts:

Roxy’s retro-inspired glam has us wanting to pack our bags and hit the beach with a bloody mary in hand.

We’re officially obsessed with every personality in each collection. You can see more amazing collections on Mae Mae’s blog today as she reveals each new one! And, we’re dying to know: which collection is calling your name?
