    Hand-Painted Flower Vine Invitation

    Flower Vine Invitation by Hand-Painted Weddings

    The hand-painted Flower Vine invitation beautifully blurs the lines of the seasons. It would be a great invitation for a Spring, Summer or Autumn wedding. There is a certain warmth to this invitation, which is fitting for such an occasion as a wedding, being surrounded by loved ones.

    The vine paintings would translate wonderfully into the various aspects of a wedding decor such as table numbers, escort cards, ceremony programs and menus. I love designing these additional elements. They are such a nice transition from the invitation to the wedding and they make a huge impact to your wedding decor. All of the Hand-Painted Weddings Shop Invitations can be made into these additional wedding decor elements; simply contact me for pricing information.

    The Flower Vine Invitation is now available for ordering under the Shop Invitations tab. Flower Vine Invitation by Hand-Painted Weddings.

    Today is Hand-Painted Wedding‘s 1-year birthday….(and my 31st birthday)! The past year has been wonderful at Hand-Painted Weddings and I am so excited to see what year 2 brings! Thank you to the readers of this little blog!

    I’m celebrating my birthday(s) today at a wedding in Richmond, VA. Very exciting (and appropriate if I must say) to be celebrating Hand-Painted Wedding’s 1-year birthday at a wedding!

    Thanks again for a wonderful year!

    Hand-Painted Roots Wedding

    Garden Reception curated by Hand-Painted Weddings Garden Reception curated by Hand-Painted Weddings Garden Reception curated by Hand-Painted Weddings

    This curated garden wedding features plants and flowers in their natural form. Using potted plants is a wonderful way to have a “green” wedding because the plants last much longer than cut flowers.

    You can choose to use the potted plants as favors for your guests or bring them home to embellish your garden after your wedding. I love the symbolism and remembrance of planting flowers from someone’s wedding into your garden. The flowers grow; the friendship grows; the couple’s budding relationship grows.

    Another popular option for garden wedding favors is custom-made seed packets. The last wedding I attended I received a pretty little box with two tulip bulbs inside.

    I hope this inspiration board has opened your eyes to using potted plants in your reception decor. It is a unique twist on classic cut flower bouquet centerpieces.
