Hi Hive!
What are your opinions about doing a mostly DIY set of invitations but including a map a la Laura Hooper etc.? Would they go together?

I think that could totally work – what kind of invitation style do you have in mind?
because I think is not about DIY and having -Professional something – mixed, but the styles working well together 🙂
I totally think it could work! I DIYed our invites, but had a friend (who’s a super talented artist) design our maps! Go for it! You can get them done cheaply on Etsy and just have them email you the file, then you print it out yourself.
That could be a really cute set — and a great way to stay on budget by doing DIY invites but splurging on a cute map!
You can always spice up DIY invites with little gems or ribbon and such. DIY can look just as professional as if you paid someone to do it.
Definitely! I recommend Pantomime Papers (aka Miss Snapdragon!)- here is an example of her work:

Thanks for the adivce everyone! I haven’t decided what the invites will look like yet, but we are having a beach wedding so I’m sure that will factor into the look of the invites. I am def. going to need maps though regardless because a lot of our guests will be Out of Town and I am so not talented enough with computers to do my own haha.
I think it would be fine. =) If you’re concerned about continuity of style, you might want to either design your invites around the style of the map, or see if you can have the map custom-made to fit your invite suite.
I don’t see any reason that wouldn’t work! I think it would look great.
Go for it!! I highly recommend Megan at Inky Spots ( inkyspots.com ) [attachment=267673,31042]
