Wedding Invites! [WIP] (Patreon)
Content
Time to get rolling on these xD
For those that don't know, my partner and I got engaged over the summer! We spent a good chunk of it contacting and touring MANY venues, and then going back and comparing them all for a wide variety of things, and eventually settling on one. The wedding is set to be in October of 2022, so my goal this month is to get the 'save the date' invites out a year in advance, mainly for friends and family that are coming from abroad (we've got some friends from the US on our guest list, along with a few family members on my side from Ireland), and then regular invites to follow a few months before the wedding.
I went and sketched out both this evening since I had a bit of time! Our wedding cake toppers are two little canine statues I purchased from Hontoriel (On FA)'s etsy (they were listed as foxes, but coyotes can pass for it too ;D). I figured I'd design the invites based around them (:
We don't really have a theme. Our wedding is taking place in a garden during the fall so...fall themed is basically what it'll end up being, haha! But I like the idea of tying coyotes into it too since we both have alternate fursonas that are coyotes. Coyotes were lifetime neighbours of both of ours growing up in rural areas. And just having a mutual love for them (: Makes the most sense without being too obviously furry in front of our families and friends (which some are not aware of) x'D
So yeah! Gonna spend the next weekend or so getting these done and off to the printers. While I wait, I have to go on a hunt for addresses. I know I could totally save money and just do e-invites but I just love sending letters in the mail lol! And I'd like to keep this part of the planning somewhat traditional (RSVPs will be done over email though. I don't want to deal with stuff getting lost on the way back to me xD) .
Not sure how much designing/drawing I'll be doing for the wedding! Maybe some table signs but honestly, the rest will just be crafts that I plan to do with my sisters and mum on holidays when we're all together! Making table center pieces, floral arrangements and all that jazz!
Hey, if you guys want to see DIY stuff, let me know! I'm totally willing to post WIPs of that here if that interests you all! I figured this one was a must though since it's still somewhat furry :P
