Sometimes the simplest change can have the biggest impact – like this horizontal version of our Serendipity foil and letterpress wedding invitations. Kristen and Daniel turned the design on its side and opted for a soft, neutral palette of desert letterpress ink and tawny matte foil. An events card and a sea-side hued envelope liner set the tone for their late summer nuptials overlooking Lake Michigan.

Ryan and Dan wanted a striking save the date to set the tone for their Boston wedding. In addition, they had important information about their wedding weekend and website to share with their guests. By choosing our Lumos wedding invitation design and customizing a 2-piece grommeted save the date card, they were able to incorporate their wedding details on a swing away card underneath the modern, industrial inspired save the date. Pewter letterpress and silver shine foil on our 2-ply Bella Cotton paper made for an edgy, monochromatic ensemble.

Aimee O’Boyle pictured a traditional East Indian wedding full of bright colors and patterns, accented with gorgeous gold fixtures and luxurious details when she created Darjeeling. The bride would wear a traditional bridal lengha in aubergine detailed with gorgeous East Indian patterns and motifs in gold, while her bridesmaids would be decked out in teal saris accented in lovely gold details. An explosion of lush florals decorates the space with amazing food and music to complete the look. To see more of the imagery that inspired this design, visit Aimee’s Darjeeling Pinterest board!
