Here it is: the Summer Fiesta Wedding Invitation Suite!

Lucky for me, my friend Caroline gave me complete “creative freedom” to go about designing her invites. After putting together an inspiration board for her, we had a quick meeting to decide on her colors. Paper samples in hand, I met her (in the parking lot of the Grove) and we came up with the basic palette: kraft paper accented by blue, white, and a collection of shades between peach and poppy.

To coordinate with Caroline’s LA-garden-party-meets-cinco-de-mayo vibe, I created with the following graphics: a floral design inspired by Mexican tiles, a pair of paisley boots, and a paisley pinata. I love the boots so much that I just may make some stationery out of it…

Here’s a list of everything included in the suite:
