Invitation Inspiration: Ampersands

Okay, okay, I know that typically when you think of wedding invitations, you think "modern", "formal", "floral", "beachy", "monogram", or "vintage".

I mean, I all ready mentioned traditional and floral invitations, but today I want to share some invitations that don't really fit into a typical theme.
I've told you guys, there are few things I love more than the ampersand. I love them, I collect them, and every time I see them, they just make me smile. A good looking ampersand is all kinds of hip and cool and pop and fresh.

Little did you know, the beautiful little & sign can make wedding invitations even more beautiful. Here, see for yourself! (Hey, stop dooling!)

A giant ampersand is a good ampersand.
Seeing all those ampersands work together just warms my heart.
A suite based around an ampersand in Helvetica?! Ohhhh perfection.

Can you see all those yellow ampersands? Loooove!

I know, I know, you can barely get over all the ampersand-goodness. Oh, what's that you say? You want more? Oh, okay, then! Here we go!
This one might be my favorite.
Okay, I lied. This sucker is my favorite.
No, no. This one for sure. A blind embossed ampersand? What a good idea!
Are art deco ampersands the best ampersands?

Amazing for sure. I can barely stand it, they're so awesome. I think I may have finally figured out a good direction for our invites to go. Whoooo!

Okay, admit it, who loves a good ampersand themed wedding invitation? Has anyone else used them?
