We were so happy with our engagement pictures that we decided to use them for our save the date cards. A few years ago I received an invitation to a work event in a vellum envelope. I loved how the graphic on the card showed through the crisp envelope. I held on to that invite and thought it’d be fun to do something similar for our save the dates!

This is the front and back of our save the date cards.

Hello there! I have to say I’m absolutely honored to be a guest blogger on Elizabeth Anne Designs. Such a fabulous resource, always full of eye candy and great advice. I’m so excited to share our wedding with you - from the planning to final fabulous day!

To get started I should introduce myself. My name is Alissa (from Graces Birdcage Wedding.) I live in Kansas City -woohoo Midwest!- and I’m an interior designer. Work is actually an interesting factor in this wedding story because that’s how I met the groom.

Dan happened to be an architect at the firm I started working at out of college. We became buddies, playing on the softball team, frequenting mexican restaurants for lunch and the occasional happy hour. It wasn’t until about 11 months later that things clicked and we began dating. We were pretty scandelous, trying to keep it a secret for a while in the office (even though everyone probably knew.) After a little more than a year of dating Dan proposed! So exciting, to know you’ll be with your best friend every day for the rest of your days:) And the planning begins… dun dun dun…
