My son will be getting married in April and I have been asked by he and my future daughter-in-law to create their invitations (all 200+!).
This is the design I came up with. There were a few requests from the bride:
1. Make it more traditional with white and silver (her grandma's request)
2. Make it a double gatefold (yikes)
3. Tear the sides of the folds
4. Use flowers in a 3D way.
5. Try to cover-up the center of the card so that the seams don't show. I cut out leaves stamped with silver Encore from the Wild Rose set.
They really aren't as hard as they look, although I wouldn't make these for just anyone.
I make 25 of each component at a time so it won't get too crazy. I also created the belly band that has one of the flowers attached to it along with organdy ribbon and silver cord. This keeps the card shut.
