It’s probably clear by now that I always appreciate small details… Especially small details for wedding days!

Early last fall, I received this beautiful invitation in the mail from one of my brides (who is also my sister-in-law). The invitations were made by Beacon Lane out of Chicago, IL, and I loved photographing their beauty, so I cannot help but share this post with you!

Side note… It also brings me so much joy to receive save the dates and wedding invitations in the mail from my brides and grooms. It is entirely sweet and makes me feel even more welcomed and appreciated by them!

Pretty invitations are like the icing on top of all the details, and they also show your guests a sneak peek of the style of your wedding decor. I always recommend that brides gather any printed materials – invitations, programs, menus, itineraries, etc. – along on the morning of the wedding because these details always deserve to be photographed!

Um, aren’t these gorgeous and inspiring?
