Lauren, December 20, 2012 9:31 am reply Oh My Goodness! When I saw the picture of the pink watercolor invitation I got so excited!!! I have actually been trying to recreate it with DIY.. LOT harder than I imagined. Boo. I would like mine to be the exact same but in a jade color with black ink. Maybe with a touch of gold somewhere to give just a tad of pizazz! Loved the website and liked it on Facebook :)
Lindsey Grigar, December 20, 2012 9:35 am reply My dream wedding inviation would be rustic with lace overlay. I love the invitation on Southern Fried Paper's website with the doily wrapped around it!

Paige, December 20, 2012 10:20 am reply I think my ideal wedding invite would have a touch of our colors (royal blue and yellow/gold) with design elements that speak to our summer wedding. We picked the colors based on our love of our undergraduate schools and I would enjoy seeing an element from the school's logos carried over into the design. Something classic and elegant would also be ways to describe what I'm imagining.

Allie, December 20, 2012 10:32 am reply My dream wedding invitation would reflect the southeern elegance theme of my wedding and tie in the setting- a former horse farm in Kentucky. I would like to work with Chelsea to create a monogram or symbol to use on all paper goods from guest bags to invitations and menus, maybe with a horseshoe. The text would be a combination of a modern text and modern calligraphy with using black, gold, and corals. I would be so excited to win this giveaway, as I have admired Chelsea's work for months! I will be ordering my invites for my September wedding in the next few months, this would be great timing!

Liesl, December 20, 2012 10:34 am reply I'm working on designing something a little rustic with kraft paper, the greens of our wedding, and a play with some font styles. I could see it being very simple but have some ideas for some extra details, if budget allows :)

Dee Shore, December 20, 2012 1:22 pm reply Awe! The last day! I looked forward to entering the contest daily. Thanks much ladies! It's a toss up as to which will be my dream wedding invite. It would have to be something between, "Barbie & Ken" pink & black cuteness! "Robyn & Jake's" beach postcard save the dates. OR the beautiful blue and pink Shabby Chic invites from "Sofia & Phillipe". Mix them all up and I guess that'll be my perfect invitation. I liked Southern Fried on Facebook, and I shared the contest as well. You could see it under "Share" http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151580340809972&set=a.10150311834779972.417244.20247934971&type=1&theater I also tweeted and Pinterest the contest http://pinterest.com/pin/218283913160911714/ Good luck everyone!

Kristyn M, December 20, 2012 3:44 pm reply I've long admired Southern Fried Paper designs and would be over the moon if they designed my wedding invites! My dream invites include a magnolia flower either blind pressed or in light pink ink at the top, traditional wording in dark gray ink, our names in light pink and then die cut with a curved frame shape; a simple lace band to hold the invite and reply card together then tied with a light pink duponi ribbon with a small tag with our wedding website looped through the bow. Swoon!

Carly, December 20, 2012 9:46 pm reply WOW! This is some gorgeous stationary! I think I would have to mostly defer to the experts at Southern Fried Paper on my invitation design. Something southern and elegant, formal but not too stuffy. Soft and pretty. Maybe a little bit whimsical. Or pretty much just anything on their website ;)

Meghan P., December 21, 2012 4:59 pm reply My dream wedding invitation would include classic touches and gorgeous calligraphy. The invitation itself would be an aqua blue and have black & white calligraphy. The set would also include a response card with a white background and aqua and black calligraphy, along with enclosure cards similar to the invitation itself with an aqua background and black & white calligraphy. I would want them to be put together in a neutral or white envelope and tied with a bow.

Danielle, December 24, 2012 12:21 pm reply Wow - beautiful invitations on their site! My dream invitation would be letterpress - we have incorporated an ampersand into our save the dates, so I would love to have our monogram written as D&D and incorporated into a wreath motif. Also, the town where we are getting married has lot of equestrian opportunities, so I would love to incorporate that into the envelope liner. Green, white, tan linen, and pale pink are our colors, so I'd love to see those incorporated into the invitation!
