My Wedding Suite

Art Direction · Event Design · Florals · Invitations

The full paper suite and table design for my own August wedding, built around citrus, marigolds, and a backyard dinner in Orem. Photographs on film by our friends.

The Invitations

Three pieces, printed at home and mailed together: a landscape main invitation in burnt orange on cream, a QR card carrying the RSVP and registry links, and a details card for the sealing and the dinner in mustard. The type pairs a heavy typewriter face for the logistics with a loose script for our names, and every piece went out with a sunflower stamp.

Designing the Party

The invitation palette carried straight onto the tables. Cheesecloth runners, brass tapers, and thrifted amber glass, with halved grapefruit, limes, and lemons set down the middle instead of a florist's arrangement. Marigolds and carnations in bud vases, a citrus naked cake, a grazing table of fruit and cheese, and a bridal party dressed in olive, butter, sage, and clay so nothing matched exactly.
