We are so sad to see our couples go through such a difficult time, many of them postponing their weddings. We are heartbroken for them and we can't wait until things are back to "normal". Until then, we thought we'd send some good vibes out there by putting smiles on people's faces with our custom "quarantine notecards". With custom watercolors and fun sayings, we hope you are able to spread some joy to your friends, family, neighbors, delivery people and more!
To order, please visit our etsy site. We are offering free shipping so don't delay! Thanks for supporting a small business in Austin ..read more

We love this color green but what we really love is making an invitation suite personal to the couple. In this suite, we incorporated the wedding venue by sketching it on a tag and envelope liner. What do you think? Will this trend stick around? We sure hope so!

We love how this invitation suite looks high end despite being digitally printed. The addition of the wax seal and hand torn edges really sets it apart. Plus everyone loves dusty blue this season!
For the menu, opposites attract. We like the idea of the modern acrylic menu paired with the softer hand torn placecard tied with soft ribbon. And the mirror acrylic seating chart really adds to the décor without taking away from it.

We loved creating social distancing buttons for the AWPA meeting last month (the first one in 8 months due to Covid!). The buttons are available for guests to wear to make them feel more comfortable (and to let other guests know that they are social distancing). We also created a painted acrylic sign to explain the buttons.
Finally, every guest received a pre-packaged lunch at the event. We created the custom labels (with a little humor to them). It's great to see events starting to come back!

From the gold foil and letterpress printed invitation to the vellum belly band and wax seal to the custom wedding venue sketch gold foil printed on shimmery blush cardstock, there's nothing we don't love about this sweet suite!

In trying to make events as safe as possible, we've created buttons for guests to wear if they want to ensure that those around them practice social distance. In essence, it's a way for guests to feel more comfortable.
We created these buttons and acrylic sign for the International Live Events Association - Austin Chapter awards party.
For information on custom buttons, feel free to email us at info@theinvitingpear.com or check out our etsy storefront at https://www.etsy.com/shop/theinvitingpear
