Erin & Donovan's DIY yellow and turquoise stationery suite

Glass Slipper Designs recently announced a new DIY invitation option for those couples who are looking to save a little bit of money on their invitation suites while still getting the "custom" look of wedding invitations. Erin and Donovan approached me about this option, and I was happy to create a custom design and step-by-step instructions for them so they could create their ideal wedding stationery suite. 


I loved their wedding colour combination - turquoise and yellow. The colours really pop, and because they are getting married at the Calgary Zoo, we decided to go ahead with some funky floral images for their stationery. I created a custom gatefold invitation design for them, accommodation insert, response card, table numbers and a program design.


Erin and Donovan were really happy with the design I came up with, and they were a joy to work with! I wish them all the best for the wedding and a happy marriage.

Colour combination we love: aqua, yellow and charcoal

We're in the midst of designing our first DIY design for our clients, Erin and Donovan, who have chosen a refreshing colour combination of aqua, yellow and charcoal for their wedding. I just LOVE how bright and fresh this combination looks, and I think they're going to have a stunning wedding. Here's an inspiration board I found to share with you so you can see just how great these colours look together:
