Lucky in Love...Save-the-Date Inspiration!

When we scheduled Chelsea and Joe's engagement session, we knew that we needed to help them get a few wedding chores off the wedding 'To Do' list. From their e-session, Chelsea and Joe needed save-the-date cards and their Sign-In-Album covered.

We've been helping Chelsea and Joe with their wedding invitations (see above) and their other printing needs and wanted to tie in their save-the-date cards to match everything else. Chelsea and Joe are getting married on St. Patrick's Day and when Chelsea saw DIY scratch-off cards on Martha Stewart, she knew that would be perfect for their 'Lucky in Love.' theme.

Together we worked with them to select clothing, location and the concept for their cards. Jennifer had the idea to make the heart and clover banner, which would eventually reveal the wedding date. We printed the cards and the envelope seals for them. Chelsea then add scratch-off paint and mailed the cards with a lucky penny enclosed. Great idea Chelsea!

October's Inspire Me! Board

Each month we are featuring a wedding that stands out with lots of creative colors, details and ideas. Hopefully you'll find some design inspiration of your own!

Since October is usually associated with a fall color scheme we thought we would show you Sara & Chris' twist to a fall color palette. Instead of going with the usual orange, red, yellow and brown fall palette, they went for a more 'organic' look with white pumpkins, chocolate cosmos flowers, moss and greenery that had more of a gray tone to it by using plants like lamb's ear. They added a hint of gold for just the right amount of shimmer.

You can see more images from Sara and Chris' event as well as view their vendor list, by clicking on their full wedding post. Enjoy!

Next month we will feature Holly & Rockford's classic and elegant ivory and gold color scheme. Having such a classic color palette suits wedding year round, but can be especially elegant for winter weddings.

New: Inspire Me! Boards

We love weddings and anything wedding related! Jennifer particularly enjoys creative color schemes and fun details that personalize any wedding. We thought we would share some of the great ideas that we come across from our personal events as well as new trends in the industry. We'll wrap up all these ideas in one 'Inspire Me! Board' that you can print or bookmark for your very own creative pick-me-up!

Having a hard time finding a color scheme, decor ideas, thoughtful favors or new twists on old ideas? Tell us how we can help by leaving a post below or on Facebook. We're happy to help and hopefully can make it our next 'Inspire Me! Board.'

Our first Inspire Me! Board comes from Ryan and Michael's wedding that we photographed over Labor Day weekend. Ryan created a contemporary, chic wedding that still felt inviting and cozy with bright shades of pink and fuchsia offset with striking black and white graphic elements. View more photos from their wedding as well as a list of the vendors she used to help create this look by viewing their wedding post.

Check back each month for a new Inspire Me! post with lots of great colors and ideas to add to your event!
