These swoon-worthy blind emboss invites are lovely, and we can’t stop thinking about them. A velvet tag and reply card, both with foil-stamping, add so much style and texture, and take this stationery suite to the next level. Rachel and Benjamin worked with our dear friend Diane of Sincerely Yours Diane to create their custom wedding stationery suite.

The look blends soft romance with a modern luxe edge. The typography is stately and traditional. There is a delicate formality to the fonts, which work together beautifully for a timeless look. Blind embossed floral artwork subtly fills in the generous blank space without overwhelming the design. Blind emboss is letterpress printing without ink, so you get the impression pushed into the paper without the color. The feel is elegant and intimate with plenty of tactile details. The botanical artwork from the invitation is digitally printed for the envelope liner. The detail gives the flowers a vintage feel and creates consistency between the invite and the liner.

Mocha velvet for the tag and reply card adds warmth and even more texture. There is a slightly western, mountain vibe to the mocha velvet, perfect for this Colorado wedding. The serif font monogram is refined and gracefully toes the line between a black-tie and ranch aesthetic.

This wedding suite is equal parts luxury celebration and western romance. It is warm and inviting, yet still black-tie formal, and we can’t get enough of it. Are you daydreaming of blind emboss invites with velvet accents? Do you want hints of Western style or a monogram tag? Work with one of our dealers to create your perfect wedding stationery suite!
