Loving Invitations Wedding Stationery







Some of the most popular designs from Loving Invitations 

Hello! I hope you are all well, I cannot believe it is the end of the summer, like always it flys in. This post is in collaboration with  Loving Invitations, an Irish owned online wedding stationery company from Kilkenny. When Linda contacted me and asked could she send out some samples to me I said yes,yes,yes after looking  on their website and seeing the wedding stationery that they have on offer!

Choosing your wedding stationery can a very daunting and overwhelming experience, similar to your wedding dress shopping and venue hunting there is so much choice out there. But like everything else, when you select the right ones you will just know.   

My tips for selecting your wedding stationery:
  • If you have a wedding theme fit it into the design
  • Do not go over your budget.
  • Keep it simple, do not overcrowd with wording, especially on your invitations 
  • Ensure your RSVP date is a month before your wedding 
  • Include a stamp as part of the RSVP  
  • For final proofing of your  wedding stationery ask someone from outside of the wedding prep, a friend or colleague. Trust me on this on as I am not the best with grammar so I would recommend this. 
  • Order some extra invites just in case you make a mistake when writing out the names.









Now onto the fabulous designs of Loving Invitations . When I got to hold them in my hand I thought the quality of the print and paper was excellent. They are varied in terms of design and they are contemporary, fresh, pretty, delicate and affordable. They have it all covered from your save the date right through to your invitation for the big day. 









You can choose from various styles, such as the flat wedding invitation, folding wedding invitation, tri-fold wedding invitation and Tri-fold wedding invitations with RSVP.  Their designs are even broken down into seasons, now that's very cool. In terms of pricing, for the budget-conscious couple, flat invitations prices are around €2.39 per card. For the couple that would like to add some more information e.g. accommodation, directions or day after celebration information etc along with an RSVP card prices are around €3.69 per card


I really like this style of  layout for your ceremony, much neater than the booklet format.









Linda from Loving Invitations shares her hot invitation trends with us:


Classic, monogrammed, vintage and animated – there are scores of styles to pick from when choosing your wedding stationery.

Botanicals

The nature trend continues to be popular but in 2016, it's all about the wild flowers, the meadows, and the countryside, It is less structured and more organic. The flowers theme is timeless and always fashionable and can work for any type of wedding. Depending on colours and the way they’re used, you can give wedding invitations a romantic or vintage twist or a modern and minimalist feel. Botanical patterns will certainly appear on numerous wedding invitation printouts throughout this year and next

Foliage

Foliage illustrations can be used almost all year round. Autumnal coloured leaves can set the perfect tone for your autumn wedding and tones of green bring a sense of freshness and are perfect for spring and summer weddings. This trend would lend itself well to outdoor, rustic types of weddings. Imagine barns, garden weddings and venues heavily inspired by nature.


Font
Bold graphics and type fonts are becoming quite popular, with couples opting to use striking graphics and bold type fonts for their invites – think script and calligraphy styles, making a big impact whilst still being very easy to read. 


Deep Colour Palette
Moving away from the traditional ivory invitations, a deep colour palette has been emerging for this winter season. To give these deep tones a more romantic feel, we have teamed them up with striking florals and pretty lettering to give that wintery idyllic feel.

Flormar Revolution Lipstick In Burgundy Mission

These are the three berry colours available    I was delighted to receive a sample of the Revolution lipstick in burgundy mission, along with the lip liner to match. These were Kindly sent from RDC Communications . Flormar  was launched this year in Ireland and it has proven to be a huge success and a popular choice for those who want affordability and quality.  I tested this lipstick out over Christmas, as I am trying to be more adventurous and try out stronger colours, as I normally tend to stick with nude tones. This lipstick is a rich berry colour with blue undertones, having these undertones makes your teeth appear whiter.   "Revolution is Flormar premium lipstick containing shea butter, cocoa, olives, a super pigment and easy 8 hr staying power" . Swatch of lipstick and liner  Application Tips: Before application ensure your lips are in good condition especially in this harsh weather. Exfoliate to remove any dry skin and apply vase

Ardgillan Castle Wedding Venue Feature

Hello all, I hope you enjoyed reading my first venue feature as I am really enjoying it. I have felt so welcomed by the venues that I have visited so far.  Please feel free to share and spread the word if this feature is of interest to any engaged couples you know. (These posts are not sponsored) and you can also follow my blog on    Facebook   |   Instagram   | Twitter  |  Snapchat  |  Pinterest On Thursday 2nd  June I went to visit venue number two, the breathtaking Ardgillan Castl e. Located between Balbriggan & Skerries. If you have ever visited here you will understand what I mean. Everytime I go to Ardgillan I literally fall in love with it all over again. Whether I go for coffee in the tea rooms, bring my daughters to the  playground or just walk around the grounds. I adore it and Ardgillan was recently featured on Lovin Dublin as the best park in Dublin to visit, now that's pretty cool. So onto the beautiful Castle, I met with Ann-Marie and Danielle and we chatt

Finally Contouring is getting the push

Anyone else as happy as me to see that contouring is not as popular in the makeup world. I personally could never get used to it. I think it looks amazing in photographers or on a night out when done right. If you prefer a more heavy look. I believe strobing has been around before it was just called highlighting then. So do not be confused!!! For me I prefer a more natural look when it comes to makeup. The whole idea with strobing is that you can see the skin and it is not heavily covered up.  I have been using the Mac Strobe Cream for a few months now. You can also strobe with powder.  Mary-Loumanizer by the Balm Mac Soft and Gentle  What I like about Mac Strobe? It makes the skin look radiant,fresh and healthy (for tired Mammies like me it's a must) It's easily applied. It's a no fuss product, there is no messing with it. It can be worn alone or added after foundation is applied. With some blush you are good to go.  Lo
