Scallops For The Rehearsal Dinner?
Seashell art adds something a bit different to these lagoon blue rehearsal dinner invitations that you can customize yourself. A large scallop shell in multi-colors decorates this designer card and all lines of text are made as templates so you will simply replace the example text you see with your own.
I have added this design to metallic ice paper and that will give it a slight shimmer. Of course, you may opt for any paper type, including our most affordable “basic” paper. The background color will remain greenish blue and is only affected slightly by some of the paper types.
Seahorses, on Paper & Sticks, For Your Wedding Day
The seahorse is an appropriate symbol for any beach wedding and the couple who loves nature may like to consider using seahorses someplace in their themed decorations.
Many seahorse couples mate for life and they may even been seen swimming along holding onto each other by entwining tails, so they won’t drift apart. How romantic!
One thing you won’t be able to relate to when it comes to seahorses is that the male is the one who gives birth! Sounds like a great idea to me, but ah, well… for us ladies it’s just a dream!
The seahorse is a beautiful and diminutive creature who lives near coral reefs and grasses in warm, temperate ocean waters. They can change colors to match their surroundings and they eat almost constantly (not that you would want to mimic that!).
In addition to wedding ceremony invitations and other stationery items for the wedding, you could include seahorse lollipops as wedding or shower favors.
The candy ones I found are made by Etsy crafter, andiespecialtysweets, and they are even blue and green which matches the image on the invitations found at Sandpiper Wedding. Cool!

Unique and Tropical, Sea Turtle Art Stationery
This exceptionally gorgeous wedding invitation set features a sea turtle and custom text. It was created by the very talented Audrey Jeanne and is for sale in her online shop, along with many matching items.
The artwork reminds me of the time we were out on the pontoon boat, just cruising the Intracoastal near Mosquito Lagoon in Florida, and I saw a huge turtle come up to the surface – just for a second – and then dive back down into the murky water. Before I could even get the kids over to look, he / she was gone. The turtle was yellow colored and big, and that is about all I remember, but it was stunning.
Turtles are popular wildlife in the state of Florida. Not only do they have the sea turtles with their protected nests along the coast, the Gopher tortoise makes it’s home all over the state. I suppose that there is a difference between a turtle and a tortoise, but to me it’s not much! I love them all and I have fond memories of the slow moving, magnificent creatures.
