Congratulations on your special day from Jeff and Kate!
My wife and I have a special appreciation for Mother Nature, and especially for the warmth and unique character of one of Her greatest products - wood! Not only is each piece of wood completely unique, but there is such an enormously wide variety of colors and grain patterns from the different species from around the world!
Every individual piece of wood tells a unique story about its past. If you know what you are looking for, you may be able to see how old the tree was, whether it was located in a forest or grown on a farm, and even what health the tree was in!
And while you can learn a little something about a tree by a piece of wood, you can learn even more about two people getting married by their wedding invitation. You are sure to want an invitation that expresses your unique connection to one another and tells everyone all about you!
That's where we come in! We've designed several completely unique wood invitations. Each invitation is engraved and cut out using our precision laser-cutter, then hand-sanded on both sides to a beautiful, butter-smooth finish. Your guests will run their fingers over the wood grains and simply admire the keepsake invitation they received in the mail.
Each of our wooden invitations is cut from 1/8" (~3mm) thick stock. Each invitation is laser cut from a solid piece of wood, not a thin veneer. This produces some of the most gorgeous and unique invitations you will find anywhere. And your guests will be sure to appreciate it (with fantastic wedding gifts)!

WHY US?:
When you are looking for someone to create an important element of your wedding (and remember, these events don't happen often!), we know that you want to be 100% sure that they will be able to deliver on their promises.
Kate and I put together virtually our entire wedding in the span of a month (we kind of moved the date up quite a bit!). We designed our own save-the-dates, invitations, RSVP cards, table numbers, name tags, seating maps, the guest book, centerpieces, music libraries, and more for our wedding. And we can say without a doubt that it was everything we had hoped for and more! Our ceremony and reception went off without a hitch and our design style was appreciated by nearly every guest in attendance!
We would really like to offer this 5-star level of service to every other loving couple so that you too can enjoy your most special day!
