The Programs

Holly not only designed the remarkable wedding invitations herself -- she printed them herself too. I wanted the expensive look of letterpress but could not afford to order them from an invitation company, the resourceful bride says. So I researched the papers and technique, and one of my former professors in college allowed me to use the school's letterpress machine and inks. As befits a Christmastime wedding, the hand-printed invitations resembled little gifts, right down to the RSVP cards, printed on gift tags. A specialty online retailer created postage stamps with Holly and Trey's photo on them -- everyone loved this detail! The bride also created the programs, which used the same typeface and were bound with sage green ribbon. Holly also created the baskets covered in faux red roses which attendants held as they passed out the programs.
