If you’re planning to mail your invitations to your guests in August, September or October, reserve your spot on the Custom Paper Works design schedule now.
It is highly recommended that you reserve a Design Start Date ahead of time because dates often book up months in advance.
For reference, the following is a schedule for weddings with invitations being mailed 6-8 weeks before the big day.
2010 Weddings & Celebrations
Januray 2011 – Reserve Design Start Date for October
February 2011 – Reserve Design Start Date for November
March 2011 – Reserve Design Start Date for December
April 2011 – Reserve Design Start Date for January.
*For DESTINATION WEDDING invitations, reserve a design start date that is at least 8 weeks before you wish to have the completed invitations in-hand.
Bar and Bat Mitzvahs should use the same schedule listed above for weddings.

A very fashion-forward client selected the color scheme for her wedding in 2008 and it’s STILL as charming as ever to see cheery yellow paired with elegant silvers and grays. A boarding pass rsvp card can be used instead of the travel-style postcard for a more traditional invitation look.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything – not enough hours in the day to get to photographing the back-log of 100+ invitations, save the dates and wedding-day extras from the past year alone.
A small sampling of projects in the works …
- Lots of Passport Invitations and Save the Dates are currently in progress, in so many shades and themes the studio looks like a {designer} crayon box!
- Boarding Pass Invitations and Save the Dates in great beachy designs and some lovely floral designs too.
- Mini Boarding Pass Save the Dates to coordinate with Passport Invitations – I love creating coordinated sets for the whole wedding!
- Pocket invitations with a bit of a chess theme.
- Amazing black and platinum lace-fringed save the dates and invitations.
- Papel Picado-themed invitations and wedding-day extras – so fun!
- Valentine’s Day wedding extras – uber-themed and elegant.
And CPW stuff to look out for …
- Website is {and has been for some time, ahem!} in progress of being redesigned.
- New invitations posted – so much to show off!
- Look for Custom Paper Works around town – we’ll be here and there.
- New mini-line of invitations for mmum mummm mumm {not telling yet!}
Don’t forget to reserve your March and April Design Start Dates now – they’re booking up fast. If you are mailing invitation in May or June, you’ll need a March or April Start Date to allow plenty of time for your custom invitations to be completed.
Have a great week!

But I’m not revealing the “twist” until later when I am able to photograph the whole set. Here’s a preview of them waiting to be boxed up the other day.
Stay tuned for the new passport invitation feature!
