Preview of my Invitations!

I decided to be brave and go the DIY route for my invitations.  Well, I received a preview of what our invitations will look like with our colors (purple and aqua) ... and.... I loved it!!!  The preview is only shows the main page of our invites, not the inserts yet, but I had to share!  Again, it's only a preview so the names and information are not what they should be, but I'm thinking about using the same wording!  I also attached a picture of what the whole invitation suite looks like - minus the colors!  So excited now that I saw the mockup!

I hope these uploads work!

    Yes, that is signatures by sarah.  She does great work!  Nice colors.  When you say DIY, do you mean printing yourself or are you gonna try to duplicate sarah's design on your own?

    Thanks ladies!!!

    @misstira Yes! It is Signature by Sarah. I can't wait either.  What is she doing for you? We were thinking about having her do our ceremony program as well, but for now just the invites.

    @LeciaB Thanks month twinny! I have to in order to keep myself sane! I actually feel I'm so behind!

    @MissusD116 I mean that I am going with the whole labor of love: bying pocketfold envelopes, printing, cuting, pasting... everything! (pray for me, lol)

    @lovelylove84 Okay, I gotcha now girl!  Sarah is designing all of my day of goodies!  So far, she has completed our entire invite suite to include 3 inserts and our monogram.  She is currently working on my table numbers.  Then we will move on to menu and programs.  She is awesome!

    @misstira @missusD1116 Her work is amazing for sure! I ordered the suite so far which includes the 3 inserts and our monogram.  Still haven't chosen which monogram yet.  I'm trying to sit down with my fiance so he can choose it with me... but ummmm.... I may end up having to choose it myself! lol

    @missusD1116 Which suite did you end up chosing? Was her turn around fast? I'm thinking about sending our invitations out a little earlier. I may use her for our programs also! I think i want to do the paddle style programs

    @Lovelylove84 I can't remember the number and her site is no longer compatible with my iPad. It has a flourishing embellishment at the top. She was pretty speedy with the turnaround but the turnaround time for final files depend on you really. Of course if you have to go back and forth on edits, it can take longer. You have to be very specific on what you like and don't like.

    Thanks @MissusD1116 Hopefully there won't be too many things I want edited. I know one thing... I need to finish getting the wording together for all the inserts!

    @misstira We have a printer at home that we may try to use, or we may run over to Office Depot and just bring our own cardstock. Depending on their pricing, I may have them cut them as well.

    These are cute! I love Sarah's work you can't go wrong with her. @Misstira definitely use Catprint they are a small local print shop in New York and they do awesome work. For the price of them printing, cutting and mailing it to you you really can't beat it.
