diy Invites success!

The invitations I designed from scratch turned out amazing!! I couldn't find anything I really liked in a template so I designed by own using Adobe Illustrator. I think it's definitely a do-able DIY if you have software/skills to do it! I'll share my invites with all of you - I had to blur some information out since my FH doesn't want uninvited guests showing up/some privacy surrounding our wedding, but you get the idea:

P.S. the fonts used were Alex Brush and Adobe Caslon Pro (it came with Adobe I think - the software is on my work computer, I designed the invites on my off-time)

    I would've probably sucked it up and bought a template if I didn't have access to Adobe Illustrator (AI). I'm also making our own Welcome/Program sign (24" x 36") on AI.

    Side note: our guestbook, gifts & cards, and favours signs will be using the wooden style from our hashtag sign in engagement session. Our hashtag sign will also be at our wedding!

    Looks great! If I had the program that we learnt in school I so would have loved to create my own!

    Thanks Bianca, it was super hard to find something like this online without paying an arm and a leg for the template!

    Thanks Becky!

    Everything I found online either costed too much to download a template or I wasn't loving all the way. I use the software for work so I already knew how to use it, then 2 Saturday afternoons to create, edit, and finalize them!
