I attended a wedding this weekend and returning home today I found an invitation to another. Now, I’m no environmentalist which is clearly demonstrated by my almost pathological unwillingness to recycle (fuck da erf), but can we talk about how much paper is WASTED in wedding invitations? Don’t get me wrong, they are often beautiful and as digital as I am I do appreciate a good...

It was brand new, glossy, black, and the insurmountable centerpiece of our home and the homes of others like us.
