Paperless Post’s Autumn Wedding Inspiration #2

It’s time for the second edition of the Autumn Wedding Inspiration boards in partnership with Paperless Post. Last week I chose a vintage waves theme and this week, we’re at the other side of the colour spectrum with one of their rich autumn designs from Oscar de la Renta. Their designs are available both online and in print.

As you can see from this design, it is available as both a save the date and a formal wedding invitation. Below is a red autumn wedding inspiration board that I’ve put together using Pinterest.

Vintage And Couture Bridalwear By Glory Days

Marry Me Ink loves all tattooed brides, especially when paired with timeless vintage dresses like these from Glory Days Vintage and Couture Bridalwear. Using a breathtaking medieval church as the backdrop, photographer Steven Eric Parker caught the dresses in a beautiful light.  Hayley of Glory Days shared the images with me and I just had to share!

Steven and I have worked together many times before, and when he mentioned he could get access to shoot in a beautiful Medieval church in North Yorkshire we knew we absolutely had to take the opportunity.

I asked Rachel from Ducks & Daffodils to make us some flower crowns which were open at the back so we could use them as collars too, and she also made us some fresh flower cuffs.  I love how they turned out, the sweet pea collar was beautiful!

Ducks and Daffodils are a local florist who specialise in organic seasonal local flowers, grown and arranged by themselves in York, and when they came on board for the shoot and I had managed to book the beautiful Katie to model we decided to let the gorgeous blooms and Katie’s stunning array of tattoos speak for themselves by keeping everything else as simple as possible.

Paperless Post’s Autumn Wedding Inspiration #1

Marry Me Ink has teamed up with the team at Paperless Post to bring you a weekly inspiration board throughout September. As Autumn is practically here (did Summer miss the memo this year?!), I’ve chosen a favourite invite design for each week, to then bring gorgeous inspiration to make your Autumn tattooed wedding outstanding. Paperless Post are passionate about the overall experience that they provide a community seeking unique wedding invitations.

The great thing about Paperless Post is that the designs they provide are both available to download for free to email to your guests or to buy to manually post with matching envelopes.
