When I first met with MaryAnne she was very interested in the magnet save the date, using teals and turquoises and bows. She also loved the colors in the peacock feather and was planning on using them for reception decor. She didn't want anything too formal or traditional looking and they were working on a tight budget.
We started with a fun photo booth style Save the Date. The photos are taken with a digital camera and I provided the signs so that they would match the card. Then the photos are mounted on magnet stock and attached to the main card with a green and blue ribbon.
For the invitations we repeated the use of the same green and blue ribbon and used it to seal our main enclosure along with a peacock feather and a rhinestone. Inside we used a more modern peacock image and an informal script to keep the invitation from being too traditional while remaining beautiful and classy.
The couple had a website with online response, so we eliminated the response card and instead included a custom map to assist guests in locating the wedding site.
