One of our favorite things about the real weddings from our brides & grooms are the fantastic wedding venues they choose. Chelsea and David held their wedding at Blue Hill at Stone Barns to create a perfectly rustic New York farm wedding in an unforgettable setting. The Splendor design by Maura Gaulthier looks like it was designed specifically for this wedding. We aren’t the only ones in love with this wedding – Style Me Pretty also featured it with more gorgeous photos from Bryce Covey Photography and Robert Sukrachand.
From the bride, “David and I both love that special something that happens when great people, good food, and yummy wine come to the table to share a meal and we wanted to curate that experience for our wedding. Once we decided on Blue Hill, the stage was set for all of the other elements to fall into place. Our whimsical and romantic invitations from Bella Figura provided the first insight into the vision of our day and each item on our checklist seemed to build upon the last. From my dress to our Hudson Valley Honey favors, everything was thought of in relation to the bigger picture. We wanted the day to be stunning, but we kept coming back to that word “comfortable” as we considered every decision.”

We were thrilled to create this glamorous invitation and day-of suite featuring Kamal‘s popular Vendage design for Mandy and Nishan’s beautiful wedding reception in Alberta, Canada. Their gorgeous celebration was a follow-up to an intimate destination wedding in Singapore, and was featured recently on Style Me Pretty.
From the bride, “I chose the Vendage invitation design by Kamal because it was more exotic, but also very elegant. I chose the colors based on the colors in my cholee – I loved the emerald green and gold. I thought it would be neat to do two colors — one color in letterpress ink and one in foil. The end result was gorgeous!“

These Balsam Calligraphy wedding invitations (by Patricia Mumau) printed in taupe letterpress are looking positively nature inspired. Paired with a jute colored envelope, the rustic look is definitely alive. The couple chose to print all of their reply by details on the front of the reply postcard, with only an oversized branch motif on the reverse. Many thanks to Urbanic Paper Boutique for submitting these for us to print.

We’re excited to announce that our September design of the month is Ellie Snow’s Byzantine invitation suite! On sale now through September 30, this design is sure to make a statement for any modern wedding celebration. The entire suite is on sale for 10% when you order during the month of September, and you can save 20% if you order 6 printed pieces or more. The original design looks bold and beautiful in navy blue, but we love the different neutral looks our design team dreamed up when creating the customization ideas below!
This vintage customization is subtle and elegant in sand and desert inks — and we love the way the design motif was used to create an eye-catching visual for the top half of the invitation.
This more formal customization of Byzantine pairs desert ink with regalia for a rich look, and traditional fonts make this appropriate for a more sophisticated affair.
This modern take on Byzantine takes a more clean, minimalist approach, incorporating the original design elements and a monogram at the top with clean typefaces and a chic color palette of French vanilla and charcoal.
You can customize this design however you’d like — change the fonts, inks, layout and more to make it your own! Need more ideas on how to customize? Have questions? Please be in touch – we’d love to work with you!
The fine print: promotion is exclusive to the Byzantine design suite and does not apply to the purchase of other designs. Orders must be placed by 11:59pm EST on September 30, 2013 in order to receive the promotion.
