It’s the number one question I get asked:

“When do I put our wedding invitations in the mail?”

The day I met Lisa & Steve, they were headed to a Nebraska vs. Creighton basketball game. And if you know anything about this in-state rivalry…it’s just that…a rivalry.

Because I meet with so many couples, I get to see so many different styles of weddings. From modern to classic, to elegant to rustic…I get a variety each year. And maybe that’s why I love doing what I do. Every wedding is different.

Sarah is a paper person.

How do I know that?

She got super excited when I showed her a letterpress wedding invitation from my samples.

I met Kelly last year through the local chapter of The Rising Tide Society Tuesday’s Together that I lead. And we hit it off right away.

Brent and Janelle chose me to design their wedding invitations and I loved their style immediately. For one, their reception was at The Barn at the Ackerhurst Dairy Farm and I absolutely adore that venue.

Wedding colors, bridesmaid dresses, flowers, what type of shoe, how you should wear your hair, chicken or beef, band or DJ…

I preach this a lot to couples.

Do it your way.

It’s your wedding and (hopefully) this is the only one you’re going to get.  So embrace yourselves, your love and your style.

When is a good time to get all those wedding planning items done?

To help, I created this fun little graphic you can pin and keep handy while you’re creeping closer to wedding day.

I’ll never forget the day I got a phone call from Jan.

When I talked to Jan Knobel for the first time on the phone, she was a nervous mother-of-the-bride.  And she had a right to be.
