Vintage Postcard Save the Dates

I've loved the idea of using vintage postcards as wedding stationery for awhile (you can actually find my own attempt to make some for our wedding right here). So when I saw these Save the Date's from Lion in the Sun, I had to share them with all of you! It would be such a personal touch to find or recreate a postcard from your venue, or even just the city you're being married, in to utilize as wedding stationery.

Real Wedding: Del Mar, California

It's officially Fall (Does it feel like where you are? Because it certainly doesn't here)! I was excited when Sara France sent along Reiley and Scott's lovely outdoor wedding, because it is the perfect seasonal inspiration. They opted for an autumnal color palette of red and orange, and held both the ceremony and reception outdoors. Vintage suitcases and postcards served as a focal point of the reception and were also used as escort cards. I love the glass vessels holding notes for the couple, and the chocolate tiered cake looks delicious!

Handwritten Paper Goods

There is something so charming about handmade goods, and these adorable paper goods Chelsea Fuss created for Project Wedding are no exception! I of course love the color palette, but that fork stamp (which you can find right here) is seriously too cute.

Wedding Logos

You all know how much I adore Gia of Betsywhite Stationery (she was even a guest blogger here for a few weeks), so when I came across her adorable wedding logos again I realized that I hadn't shared them here! Deciding on a logo was one of the first things I did for my own wedding - a good logo can really tie every little detail together for a cohesive look. Gia has created such an adorable line of logos and monograms for Betsywhite, any of these could easily be used in your home long after the wedding is over. And you can even buy them in sticker form!

Wooden Table Numbers

When I found these ash wood table numbers on The White Aisle, I was instantly planning my own wedding again in my head. Aren't they lovely? They are each printed in cocoa colored ink and are double sided, so they can be seen from all angles. And of course, pairing them with hydrangeas and burlap is perfection. {P.S. Go check out the pricing - they are much more affordable than I imagined}

Nautical Save the Dates

I came across these adorable Save the Dates on Etsy the other day - I wish I would have found them for my own wedding! Such a fun take on the "tie the knot" theme, there are also invitations and table numbers. And if you're on a budget these are for you, because they are DIY!

Paper Garlands

These paper garlands from Kristina Marie's Etsy shop are too pretty for words! They are available in just about any color combination you can imagine and she even takes custom orders. Some of them are made of old hymnals, which would be a lovely touch to a church wedding. Her designs were just featured in Martha Stewart Weddings - check out this picture to get and idea of how you can string the garland across your ceremony chairs! {Found via Creature Comforts}

Real Wedding: Granville, Ohio

Meredith and Josh's wedding was perfectly preppy - a pink and green color palette, their new married monogram on the programs, a sparkler send off to end the evening. In fact, they were so committed to their color palette, they chose the reception venue (The Bryn Du Mansion) because it had rooms that were pink and green! Be sure to check out the sparkler sleeves towards the bottom, they say "Thank you for adding sparkle to our special day." Love that!
