Hello Geneva Wedding World!
My name is John and I’m the groom in this giant event. Since
this is my first post, I want to give a personal thanks to everyone that voted
for us. I wish I could invite everyone to the wedding, but I don’t know many
venues that hold 3,600 people. We were blown away by the response we received
and can’t thank you enough!
But let’s move on to the topic of this post, the
invitations. Normally you would think that the bride would be writing all of
these posts, but invitations are in my ballpark since my career is in graphic
and web design. Therefore, when it came to the invitation look, layout and
style I had no problem taking the lead.
After meeting with Tina from Riverside Receptions we
strolled over to Invitations by Design and met with Tara. She has a small shop
right next to Riverside that puts out unbelievable and truly original work.
When walking in, shelves of invitation samples surround you, which help to
gather inspiration and showcase their work. I won’t go into tons of detail, but
just know that whatever the invitation you’re looking for, they can do it with
perfect execution. Tara is the owner and she is very knowledgeable and easy to
work with. Once we sat down, the three of us chatted for a couple hours going
over different layouts, colors, designs and even fonts. Tara helped us narrow
down a style we liked, showed us examples of previous work and then customized
it to our liking. We really think that these invitations are going to “wow”
people when they see it. Think
sophisticated, yet fun and inviting. They are the perfect entrance into our
wedding day and I can’t wait to see the final layout. I am going to save the
unveiling of the colors and design for Sarah, but I think everyone will look at
these invitations and be excited for the wedding that is about to come.
Within a week or two, Tara should have a mock-up of our
invitation completed. I don’t really have to mention that I’m a little excited…
but I will anyway. I’m a little excited. Invitations by Design is extremely
talented, so when they take the vision we had, and materialize it; I know it
will be great! Please check back soon for the final design and color reveal.
