...Library Card...

Listen, we saw these and they took us back to the days of the card catalogue and being curled up in the comfy chair at the library with the newest Boxcar Children book {or Babysitters Club, whatev}. Anyways, we were smitten. Here's a look at the suite:
The invitation mimics a vintage library due date card with a typewriter font that is too adorable to take your eyes off of.
The RSVP card takes the form of a "Library Card Application" form that your guests would be delighted to fill out.
From the designer: The couple's wedding reception was to be held at the Newberry Library library in Chicago, Illinois. These invitations were designed to look like vintage library material. A due date card, library application and card catalogue cards {see the reception card, below} were used as the inspiration for each piece. The entire package was placed in a navy blue pocket that resembles a pocket inside a library book. And you know that we love wrap around labels, so we had to end with a picture of the lovely envelope and the darling wrap around label.

OMG I love these!! They are so darn cute! If/when I get married, I'd love to have a libary theme to my wedding. I saw a cool wedding once where their place cards were little library cards & each table was named after a section of the library.

Of course this means I need to find a book-obsessed man.....
