SO...to keep it super simple (KISS)...I'm going with black and white damask pattern accented with baby blue. I've seen the theme a hundred times, and while I don't like the idea of doing what's been done time and time again, I like the thought of maintaining my sanity. There is damask EVERYWHERE and it always looks great! There are tons of free or inexpensive invitation and stationary items online. Black dresses for the bridal party make me feel a lot better than asking them to buy a sky blue getty-up that I'm sure nobody will ever wear again. And I've yet to see a damask event that I didn't like. Damask is also a great dramatic theme for a fall wedding. Grey, baby blue and purple is more springish I believe.
I am planning on using this free download for my invitations http://shop.mujka.ca/freebies/free-damask-wedding-invitation-set-black-version/prod_348.html. I mean FINALLY something is budget friendly in this operation! JEESH! I can use this for save the dates also. One stone. Two birds! YAY!
So...the best way to KISS is to ditch the complicated theme and go with what is easy, tried and true, and looks great.
Now I just need to figure out how to NOT spend $300 on pochette envelopes...
