Storytelling should always be a part of your wedding suite.   Designing this special invitation for @amyokuda was all about the details. From the custom calligraphy (made a style just for her) to the botanical illustrations (secretly inspired by her gorgeous @watters gown), as always our goal was to somehow reflect the couple on to paper. After all, you’re inviting your loved ones to celebrate with you—so why would you send a generic invitation that doesn’t feel like you?   And a super special love letter to @swellpresspaper for the gorgeous print and letterpress, as well as the creamy, buttery goodness of the paper she selected. I’m so glad I convinced the couple to go letterpress so I could finally work with you 💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: @jillianrosephoto . . . #weddings #weddingdetails #aislesociety #weddingsparrow #theknot #weddinginspiration #weddingideas #weddinginspo #weddingstationery #invitationsuite #weddinginvitation #weddinginvitations #lawedding #losangeleswedding #californiawedding #maliburockyoakswedding #malibuwedding #socalwedding #stationerysuite #invitation #calligraphy #moderncalligraphy #paperstories #dailydoseofpaper #stationeryaddict #watercolor #watercolorpainting #art #wearethecreativeeconomy #communityovercompetition

To friends old and new, welcome to our new normal.   Wedding season for 2018 has come to a close with the best of them all, my dear sister @amyokuda got hitched a few weeks ago and I’m still in awe scrolling through the photos by @jillianrosephoto Amy gives me a lot of credit for the look of this wedding, but I can’t thank her enough for trusting me to be a part of it.   Pregnant and then with a newborn, it’s easy to feel helpless, overwhelmed, and almost like a shell of the person you used to be. You feel your old self slipping away, like it needs to leave in order to make room for this new huge responsibility that weighs on you. Like there’s no space left for anything else. Passion. Love. You.   But working on this wedding as a stationer and calligrapher, being a matron of honor, planning the ceremony as an officiant—it all reminded me that I’m still here, that I’ve got a job to do so I better roll my fucking sleeves up and get shit done. No time for crying, leave that to the new baby. I’m here. I’m worthy. I’m needed, everywhere.   So thanks as always Amy, for thinking higher of me than I ever could, pushing me to heights I couldn’t have dreamed of without you believing in me. Because of you, amazing things happen, like an acrylic sign with vinyl lettering and laser cut wood botanicals. I mean, come on how pretty, right?
