When the bridal processional song starts...and the bride is ready to walk down the aisle...do you know who's job it is to cue the wedding guests to rise? The mother of the bride. She's the one who stands up first, signaling to the rest of the guests that it's time to welcome the bride. I think that's exactly the role that mom's play your entire life. Mom's are the first to stand up and welcome you, love you, congratulate you, and listen to you. And if your mom is anything like mine, she's the one who will ALWAYS be standing there for you.

I loved meeting Courtney's mom, Jane. She came along with Courtney to the very first meeting with me about wedding invitations. I'm sure she was also a huge part of Courtney's wedding day. And combining her opinion + Courtney & Chase's opinion = a beautiful and budget-friendly black and ivory wedding invitation set. Happy third day of marriage, C+C!

A black shimmery policy envelope was a nice touch.

She chose shimmery ivory paper for her invitation, RSVP card & program

The invite opens up to look like this! Very pretty.
