First can we just say, um, it’s September. Crazy.
Next, it’s soooo satisfying to see such a huge suite of pretty paper pieces all in one place, all for one purpose. Jessica and Tad are both designers and illustrators (plus Tad co-runs a silkscreen shop in Kansas City called Vahalla Studios), so of course they had to make their invites and reception pieces themselves.
Ah, the relationship timeline. Could not ever get tired of a nicely presented relationship timeline. Especially when you consider how many people may be invited to your wedding who don’t really know the whole story of you two as a couple. Nicely done, Tad & Jess. Can we call you Jess?
Tote bags! We want to go to a wedding with screen printed tote bags waiting in our hotel room. Plus Jessica and Tad’s guests got a set of 4 silkscreened greeting cards they designed and printed themselves. SO CUTE. And thoughtful. They definitely get a gold star for favors.
Awesome work you two! And thank you so much for sharing everything with us.
You can see tons of beautiful photos of Jessica and Tad’s entire wedding on Lemon Lime Photography’s blog.

Really beautiful work, bravo! I especially love the subtle, faded press work on the table numbers.

Too too cute.Such a beautiful suite.
Lovely work indeed! I adore the combination of whimsy and sophistication. These type of details are always my favorite part of a wedding. Congratulations to the couple!
I just love the relationship timeline. How did they use it? With the invites? As a Save the Date?
I love the “firsts” card. That is precious.
That last picture is so amazing!

What beautiful invites/tote bags/paper! I love the designs and the colors
The relationship time line is a nice personalized touch!
So beautiful! The green is wonderfully cheerful. I also love the personal touches on the stationery.
Great photography! But I especially love the relationship time line, I posted it on our blog! Great invitations!
oh, my! the timeline is wonderful! I love that idea!
I adore that timeline. Such a lovely way of telling your story and, like you say, an excellent way of ‘introducing yourselves’ to people who may not know both of you that well.
that relationship timeline is a brilliant idea!
The name Tad Carpenter seemed so familiar until I finally realized that this Tad Carpenter is THE Tad Carpenter. Gah! So awesome! This wedding is every bit as beautiful as his work. I have countless concert posters from him around my house and adore them all.
How whimsical and artistic! I can’t wait to try out silk screening…. I hear it has it’s challenges though.
Love the cursive font of thier names on the invites. Would love to know what it is!
