Nicole & Noel : 11.24.12

One of my absolute favorite things to design are wedding invitations, so when one of my best friends got engaged I was so excited and honored that she asked me to design hers. Her wedding is right after Thanksgiving, and their reception is at the historic Hotel Bethlehem, which will be decorated for Christmas by then, so as not to clash with the hotel's decor, she chose to go with a silver and red crystal theme. The invitation sets the tone for the whole wedding, so it had to be something spectacular. After about a million hours of beading and rhinestoning I am absolutely in love and obsessed. And I'd like to think Nicole feels the same way.
