Shades of Gray

Thursday, March 31, 2011

There are few things better than a DIY bride, especially one with such impeccable style! This bride is a buyer for Magpie & Rye, so it's no wonder that when she designed the invitation suite to her intimate wedding, it was pretty irresistible. That bistro-inspired RSVP? I'm smitten!

    Gray is one of my favorite colors and it's a shame I didn't work it into our wedding somehow. I love these invites - so chic and classic...and I really thing gray is a gorgeous color:)xo

    So simple and beautiful. I love the details, like that kraft paper sticker? Adorable. Don't get me started on the grey envelope and white font.

    Lena, I have a love for shades of gray with white, blush, and charcoal. So when I saw this had most of thise colors...I too was smitten. This suite is perfection. I adore the calligraphy just as much as I love the RSVP. Have a great weekend, friend! xo

    "Learn calligraphy" has been on my list of goals for a while, but this suite just bumped the priority up a few notches. i think this is EXACTLY what i want my invite suite to look like someday :)
