and inspirational website Rock My Wedding.
Some time ago now Charlotte and I went on a little trip to the National Wedding Show at the NEC in Birmingham. In fact it was the day after Charlottes 30th Birthday party, we were more than a little tired and grumpy and weren’t particularly impressed with a lot of the mass market offerings. However, we did find a few gems and the subject of todays post is no exception. In fact it pretty near made the whole trip worthwhile for me.
The Hummingbird Card Company were a brand that I knew of but had never seen their work in person and so I was quite floored by the spectacularly pretty offerings they had on their stand. The colours and shimmering cardstocks used were quite simply gorgeous and I have always loved the laser cut design, their interpretation of which is delicate and bang on trend.
I think the thing I like about these designs most is the delicacy of the designs and the light summery feeling you get when looking at them. For someone planning a dreamy romantic summer-garden affair, I think they are just about perfect.
Silhouette Surprise
Even better, for those wanting to save money we are delighted to be able to share the new Silhouette range from Hummingbird. Starting at around £2 per invitation and dropping to under £1.50 the more you order, this one’s a real bargain. And unlike most budget ranges there no pretty lost here…
The budget crunching key is that the design is printed onto the card in black instead of being laser cut, which gives quite a convincing shadow effect. The actual designs are equally pretty and I’m a particular fan of all the fun and modern quotes you can also choose from.
We’re always on the look out here at Rock My Wedding for ways for you to get the look you want for a better price and whilst the alternative options are often not that close to the original in terms of keeping the feel of the design, Hummingbird Cards have done a great job here I feel. Well worth checking out, even if you think you couldn’t afford the laser cut range.
Rock My Wedding aims to bring soon-to-be -brides a wealth of ideas through fresh and innovative content, daily real wedding eye candy and access to the industry's most desirable vendors.
