What are your top invitation trends for 2020?

There are 3 major things. The first is personal touches, the second is classic with a twist - and the third is just embracing vibrant, really beautiful color.

1. Personal touches... You can commission an artist. Like I painted a liner of the venue of where the couple was getting married. So it becomes a really special keepsake as well, and it sets the tone right away. A touch of the view, very elegant. And when you open it, you have a classic invitation. But as you pull out the cards, you get little painted vignettes of the different places for the events throughout the wedding weekend.

2. Classic with a twist... So here you have a classic invitation, but the twist is adding a really fun pattern on the back or adding it into the liner. So it's really just setting a cool tone. But you've got those classic undertones that are timeless and will never go out of style.

3. Colorful fun...Vibrant big, bright color tones, done in gorgeous watercolors that I paint for the client. And playing with really cool, different materials like velvet with gold foil - just to give tactile, activate your senses and create a really fun statement.

So that's what we're seeing. Lots of exciting things happening, and ultimately, it's all about personalization and just creating something memorable and a perfect keepsake for your wedding.
