A Gold & Gray Wedding

Becky & Josh's hand-bound booklet Invitation. So worth all the work!

Becky and Josh came to The Wishing Room looking for an invitation that would fit their cool, eclectic style, honor their gold and gray color scheme, and hold a ton of information for their guests. The result was this: a hand-bound booklet that features wedding festivities, maps and directions, local eateries and lodging, and fun information about the ceremony. Die-cut response cards were tucked in the back of the invite booklet. I love this type of project and was so happy to be able to do it for Becky and Josh!
