Wedding invites

Slightly overdue, but time to share our wedding invite designs!

While wedding banquet venues in Singapore usually provide free invite templates and printing, we decided we’d prefer a custom look and exchange the hotel’s offer for more bottles of wine. ;)

We used photos from our pre-wedding shoot by our wonderfully talented photographer Andrew Phua to whip together our invite designs. They were then lovingly printed by our friend Corrina from Papypress with a brown kraft backing for a more unique look.

Gold foil hotstamped confetti would have been awesome on the card but wouldn’t have fit into our budget in this case. Nevertheless, we loved how the cards turned out!

Our pre-wedding shoot

Many pre-wedding shoots have brides decked out in their wedding gowns and romantic poses. While those are beautiful too, Dan and I felt we would have been way too awkward (and sweaty) posing in really formal wear for shots.

Furthermore, we had it such that he would only see me in the gown at the church walking down the altar, so a shoot in the gown would have been a no-go anyway.

We had toyed with the idea of not doing a pre-wedding shoot, but when my friend Rayern showed me Andrew Phua’s portfolio from andrewphuaphotos, we knew we had to have his photos for keeps!
