Unfortunately no, you are not being invited to a wedding right now. This wedding happened a week and a half ago – for our sister Tredessa and her dear husband, Ryan. Hopefully within the next few days we will be able to share with you a few photos from the wedding – we know we’ve been promising and we will deliver soon, we promise(more)!
I had the great honor of designing the invitation and programs for their wedding which were such a blast to do! My sister had some fantastic ideas so we chatted through specifics and went to work.
Each invitation consisted of a canvas book tied with a puzzle piece.
Inside was a 25-minute DVD with their love story and a wedding wheel invitation. I’ve never had to use so much math on an invitation before in my life…
We also recreated the “story” feel for the programs which I have seen around recently and LOVE.

In addition to a few other small design elements like labels for bottles and things of that nature, the last project I worked on was a poster for the foyer at the church which told who the wedding party were.

At the end of the 25-minute DVD included with the invitations, I put together a fun little montage of Ryan and Tredessa with some of the extra footage. Don’t worry – this isn’t the full 25-minutes. Enjoy!
The design work for their wedding was so much fun to do and I couldn’t be happier that they trusted me to work on it with them.

Happy married life Dess and Ryan!!

They were amazing invitations and you did a great job. Plus you worked so hard on them, getting them ready while Dessa was out of town. I remember the blisters and ouchy-fingers! ;) You are a gem of a sister!

You did do an EXCELLENT job on everything! I feel so blessed to have such a talented graphic designer in the family to take full advantage of. Thank you SO much for all your hard work on this stuff! It added an element that would have been missed had you not done it. Love you!

Hi Stephanie,
My fiance and I are looking for fun and whimsical invitations for our weddings. We loved the invites that you made for your sister (http://www.maydae.com/design/invitation-to-a-wedding/). Do you make invitations for order, or was that just a gift to your sister?
Thanks,
Jess
