At long last, the wait is almost over: Game of Thrones Season 5 premieres on Sunday, April 12! Based on the bestselling series by George R.R. Martin, this fantasy epic follows the leaders of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros in their quest for realm domination.
Check out some of our favorite details inspired by the spellbinding visuals on the show.
The Venue
The majority of the filming for Game of Thrones took place in Northern Ireland and Scotland. Forests, barns and other outdoor venues harken back to a bygone century.

Invitations & Stationery
Lion in the Sun designed this custom invitation suite for GoT fans Hsiao and Tony. With gold foil, black museum board and nonconventional silhouettes, it was equal parts glamorous and macabre. Don't forget to include their riff on the Stark house motto ("wedding is coming!") for your save-the-date!
