You Ask, I'll Answer


I get asked questions all the time about how many weeks in advance a shower invitation should be mailed out, the proper protocol for addressing wedding invitations, and the list goes on and on.

Now is your chance to ask any questions you have regarding all things etiquette, 521 Designs, timelines, invitations, stationery, etc.

I will be collecting questions over the next week or so, and will come back with a post full of answers to your questions. If you have a question, leave a comment in this post, email us at 521designs@gmail.com, tweet us @521designs, or post on our Facebook wall.

Looking forward to all the questions you are going to send my way!

Ahoy!

How excited would you be if you received a Save the Date from your company? Not just a Save the Date for a meeting, but for a trip to the beach! I must say that I would be pretty ecstatic!

Rather than sending out an email that was sure to get lost in everyone's inbox, we created a special invite to be mailed to each employee's home. 


We wanted this invitation to stand out, but not to be too "out there" design-wise since it was for a corporate event. 


I think this design really hit the nail on the head as far as design goes. It does not have waves, beach umbrellas, or sea shells, but still communicates "beach trip."
