custom design :: burnett wedding announcements

I finished these wedding announcements for my dear friends Kristin and Chris just about a week ago. After getting married in a very private ceremony {we are talking just them} in December, they wanted to send out announcements to their family and friends. With a Colorado, cabin, mountain theme, Kristin and Chris are announcing their wedding to the world and sharing a few candid and romantic photos on the announcement, as well.

On the back of the announcement, Kristin and Chris had a letter to their family and friends to share more details about their special day.

Kristin came to me with a rough idea of wanting to incorporate photos from their wedding day and including elements that would evoke the place of their nuptials - the family cabin in the Colorado mountains. To accomplish this feel, I used some hand-lettered looking typefaces.  I also worked in a subtle woodgrain pattern for the background. The snowflakes and mountain-scape hint at  the snowy day in mountains as well. The color palette was dictated by Kristin's flowers, which we absolutely gorgeous winter whites, grays, and purples {flowers were by Verda Fleur in Durango, Colorado}.

In addition to the announcement, Kristin and Chris needed a small, accompanying invitation for the celebration they are having back east this spring. The announcement will arrive to family and friends back east with the invitation tucked inside ... for their Colorado friends and "family" just an announcement will go out for now, and an eventual invitation will be mailed when the Colorado celebration has been planned.

The announcement and invitation were both digitally printed

It was such a pleasure to work on this wedding announcement + invitation suite for Kristin and Chris. I was so excited to capture their special day for them in this small way for them to share their wedding day with the world!
