Fairytale Wedding Invitations for Tate House Wedding

One of the things I love most is getting to provide fairytale wedding invitations. ESPECIALLY for clients that truly have a fairytale kind of love. Now, Mallory has seen her fair share of challenges, and when she reached out to me to inquire about custom wedding invitations, she told me that her relationship with Jeff was nothing short of a fairytale. I can’t even express how completely excited I was to work with her to bring her dreams to life! Additionally, Mallory and Jeff share a love for the Atlanta Braves! Celebrating their favorite baseball team added a unique twist to their reception. So be sure to keep reading to see what I’m talking about! Together, we blended classic romance with whimsical charm on their wedding day!

The Perfect Fairytale Setting: the Tate House in Tate, Georgia

Nestled in the picturesque North Georgia mountains is the historic Tate House in Tate, Georgia. This venue provided the absolute perfect backdrop for Mallory and Jeff’s dreamy wedding. Known for its stunning pink marble facade and lush surroundings, the Tate House exudes timeless elegance and natural beauty—an ideal match for the couple’s dream wedding.

Designing Mallory and Jeff’s Dream Invitation Suite

From our very first meeting, Mallory had a clear vision for her wedding invitations. She wanted a blend of fairytale romance and classic sophistication, with personalized touches that made each piece unique. We chose a color palette of white, sage green, and gold to bring her vision to life. Next, we chose to include watercolor florals, hand-lettered calligraphy, vintage stamps, and silk ribbons.

• Custom Crest and Wax Seal: One standout feature was a custom crest. First it was hand-painted in watercolor, then transformed into a beautiful line-drawn wax seal.
  

• Watercolor Venue Illustration: The formal invitation featured a watercolor painting of the Tate House, welcoming guests with its beautiful landscape.

• Hand-Lettered Calligraphy: Mallory and Jeff’s names took center stage in my signature hand-lettered calligraphy, with all the important details easy to find.

• Floral Details and RSVP Cards: The details card included additional information, adorned with wedding florals. The RSVP card had options for guests to joyfully accept or regretfully decline, with space for names and guest count.
  

Each invitation suite element was thoughtfully designed. The goal? To reflect Mallory and Jeff’s unique love story and the timeless elegance of their wedding theme.

Special Touches and Personal Elements

To ensure the invitations felt personal and special, we included several unique touches:

• QR Code: The details card featured a QR code linking to the couple’s wedding website.
• Envelope Art: Light sage green envelopes complemented the invitation suite, adorned with vintage stamps featuring architecture, florals, birds, and a fawn.
  

 

Baseball Calligraphy: A particularly unique request was calligraphy for a custom-built baseball wall, with baseballs displaying each guest’s name and table number—a nod to the couple’s love for the Atlanta Braves.

Guests loved finding their place on the wall and took home their baseballs as memorable keepsakes.

Setting the Tone for an Unforgettable Day

Mallory and Jeff’s invitations were more than just a way to inform guests about their wedding—they truly set the tone for the entire event! The luxurious, custom designs conveyed the fairytale romance and intentionality that the couple wanted to share with their family and friends. Through our collaboration, we achieved a tangible fairytale, without straying too far from home!

 

Client Feedback and Final Thoughts

Mallory’s feedback was overwhelmingly positive. She described her invitations as the most beautiful she had ever seen and shared with me that several guests felt the same. The invitations not only met but thoroughly exceeded her expectations, and ultimately created a cohesive aesthetic and memorable experience for everyone involved.

In the end, Mallory and Jeff’s wedding at the Tate House was a perfect blend of fairytale romance and classic elegance, beautifully captured in every detail of their fairytale wedding invitations. It was an honor to bring their vision to life and contribute to their special day.
