Invitations....


Jon had the pleasure of making the save the data cards and wedding invitations for Grant and Nicole’s upcoming wedding. Grant and Nicole were both in my department at the University of Oregon and they are still living in Eugene. We miss them so much – so it was the least we could do to help them prepare for their special day.

We have had a lot of positive feedback from the invites, so we are considering starting a custom invitation business on the side. The idea being, customers could decide their own style, design, colors, wording etc. and we will put something together based on their likes and dislikes so that the invitation is specialized for their event. For example – the inspiration for Grant and Nicole’s invitation and save the data came from a fabric swatch that Nicole loves and is incorporating into her wedding. We will keep you posted on this idea – but would appreciate knowing if any of you would be interested in having invitations made or could spread the word to friends and family to check us out if we start a business. We look forward to everyone seeing Grant and Nicole’s save the date and invite!

G&N's cards are beautiful. Hopefully Tom & I can purchase some baby announcements in 2009 ;-)

I wonder if we could send follow up cards... like post-cards, that would say our save-the-dates and invitations were created and customized by Jon and then include a website for more information...???

It would get the word out to 150 more people at least.

I was just watching your pictures of our visit this past summer. So fun!!! We are 100% coming again soon.
