Morning ladies, finally got round to doing my invites and here are just a few pics of the finished product. What do you think honestly? They are a bit different and no invite is the same, but our whole wedding is shabby chic, so hopefully they look ok! :) xx
Finally reunited with the love of my life

This Saturday I will finally be Mrs Codling!

I didn't know what to do either a while ago, then I went shopping with MIL2b and saw a pack of vintage style paper by V&A with the brads and ribbon and I had a lady specially make the wedding invitation tags. I was going to attach them with ribbon but think they break up the papers well. My MIL2b also contributed some of her different patterned papers as she makes cards a lot and has a vast collection. It only cost me £20 to make 20 so happy with that. Thanks girls! :) x

ok stop now, you are making me blush, lol. glad you all think they are decent enough, was worried that guests might get them and think they look cheap. but along with the favours and mismatched crockery for the reception i thought they fitted the theme. :) x

Have sent out four invites since posting pics, only because it was all the stamps I had on me and I need some more addresses, but so excited now, can't wait to get the RSVPs! And excited about posting the rest tomorrow, probably silly but it is a huge thing to finally send them out! :) x

You would be on to a winner there.

Don't think they are good enough for that really but I am proud of them, no wonder a lot of brides on here make their own stuff, it brings great satisfaction. :)

"mismatched crockery for the reception" Just so fab! Think I have got some pics of my mates wedding that you would love!
CommentAuthorLofty
They look great, well done! I've got ages to go until I start making invites but I've got absolutely no idea what to do, I love that these are so different to most invitations and that each is unique too! Good work!
Very happy to say I'm now Mrs Keates and loving it!
CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
Oooh sounds good! I am hoping it will look as stunning as it does in my head, I will be gutted if it doesn't! Have spent so long in collecting it and still have more to buy yet. Think I might lay my dining table up with the lace table cloth and the crockery and see what it looks like now, 4 months is too long to wait! :)

Love them, love that each one is different xx
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
Out of interest where did you get all the papers and tags from as they are very pretty.
CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
Thanks MrsDadson2b, it was a struggle to decide who to send each one to, though some of them I had specific people in mind when doing them. :) I got it all from Downtown, the Victoria and Albert Museum have brought a range out of vintage looking paper, brads and ribbon, but a lot of the paper was donated by my MIL2b who does a lot of crafty things and she buys books of different papers, hoards them in fact, lol, so I couldn't tell you where she got them from, probably one of the many sites she goes on. x

It was fun making them, but took longer as I couldn't decide what paper to use for some of them, lol. Hope the guests don't just fling them in the bin afterwards, I will be asking for them back, lol. x
