Making Beautiful Music
Posted in diy, elizabeth, favors, gocco, stationery by elizabeth
Continuing today’s theme of favors, I thought today I’d talk a little bit about using CDs in your event. There are a variety of ways you can incorporate CDs - as favors, in the OOT baskets for guests to place their photos on and mail back to you, in your invitations or STDs, or as little presents for those people who helped to make your day special.
Here are some fun and cute ways to present those discs, ranging from the super-easy to the oh-so-incredible…
1) An adorable DVD invitation with a Mad Lib style rsvp card created by Red Prairie Press. So whimsical, fun, and interactive - the invitations are the first things your guests see, and this really says that they are going to have fun!
2) An origami paper folding “case” - not only easy but practical and very cute.
3) A paper CD sleeve - customize this one to your heart’s content using any type of fun patterned paper, stitching, and other embellishments.
4) Little Winter Bride created beautiful CD favors with artwork for her guests.

5) Knottie Beatka had her CDs professionally printed, but DIY’d these gorgeous keepsake books to present them in. Swoon.
6) Weddingbee’s Miss Cupcake goccoed her CD save the date inserts - who knew you could gocco on a CD? That little machine does everything!
Are you using CDs or DVDs in your wedding? How will you be packaging them?

I’d like to personally say not does Miss Cupcake’s version look adorable, but the music rocks too!
How fun, thank you for the shout-out! I am still amazed that my little Gocco was able to churn out those awesome CDs for our save the dates. (And how fun to be mentioned on your blog the same day as my fabulous sister-in-law, Kimberly, from Inspired Goodness!).
Thank you for this post! My FI are doing DVD invites and I wasn’t feeling the inspiration for design and packaging from anywhere - now I am!! Thanks
Oh snap - yes, we’re doing them for our OOT bags! All songs with California themes! Uh oh, I better add packaging for this to my project-fairy list!
I really love the mad lib rsvp card and the dvd invite. That is so cute and fun and will most definitely be something that your guests will truly remember. Wonderful Post!
This is a great idea!! A friend of mine put together a mixed cd as their wedding favor and I still listen to it to this day - what a great way to package it!
