The Not Wedding

Brilliant. A bridal show that's hosted like an actual wedding!

From ceremony to reception, The Not Wedding event is essentially a chance for potential clients to see a curated selection of local wedding vendors in action. A faux bride, groom & wedding party model stunning wedding attire, catering companies showcase their best delicacies, floral designers arrange stunning bouquets. The attendee is a "guest" at the wedding and can view the invitations, sample the wedding cake & hear the DJ spin on the dance floor.





The Not Wedding currently hosts events in Atlanta, Orlando & San Diego. {These photos are from the 2012 Atlanta event.} This is such a fantastic idea, I'll bet it will be catching on in other locations around the country. So fun!

Featured Design :: Sweetly Wrapped

This is one of my our most popular P&P invitation suites: simple yet elegant. The beautifully scripted text evokes a traditional feel but the layout stays modern. The baker's twine wrapping & bow adds a bit of fun to complete the design.

This Invitation Suite comes with RSVP postcard and additional Details card, all wrapped up together. The RSVP postcard return address shows when the whole ensemble is flipped, making it easy to stamp, stuff & send to your guests.

This suite is shown in Navy & Slate but many other color options are available. Visit the Paper & Pinafore shop for more details: www.paperandpinafore.etsy.com

Welcome to my blog!

Hello & welcome to the Paper & Pinafore blog!


My name is Havilah Savage and I'd like to introduce my business, Paper & Pinafore! P&P is a handmade wedding invitation business & Etsy shop- here's a sneak peek:


These are just a few of my designs, you'll find lots more in the shop. I make matching paper goods such as Save the Dates,Wedding Programs, Place Cards, Menus, Thank You cards- all available in any design style.
I also offer an assortment of ribbons, twines & other crafty supply items.

I have been blogging off & on for the past few years under my other business name, Darling Savage- but I've decided to dedicate my time & attention to P&P for now. Which means that this blog will be primarily dedicated to Wedding Style & Design but also to other lovely things such as art, craft, fashion, photography, food and all other forms of decor & design. Oh, and cats.
