Refined Letterpress Wedding Invitation with Bevel Edges

Delicate botanical illustrations paired with a springtime-inspired color palette and an elegant, stately design made us fall in love with these invitations. The couple, Abigail and Charles, worked with our dear friend Laura of Fine Lines of Katonah to customize our Burklyn design for their special day.

The typography is elegant and formal. Even the beveled edges give the invitation a traditional feel, but edge-painting the 45-degree bevel in our goldenrod ink adds color and a fun sense of whimsy. Edge painting also helps the bevel edges stand out.

The floral pattern on the belly band was created especially for this invitation and is composed of the blue flower motif from the inspiration design suite and the yellow flower motif, which is part of our available artwork. We can create patterns using our existing motif library or based on your direction. Do you want a flower that isn’t part of our collection? Or do you want to change the color or remove leaves from one of our existing floral motifs? Let us know.
The floral accent on the rehearsal dinner invitation gives the card a bit more of a casual feel, but it’s still lovely. The details card has a slight modern feel, thanks to the vertical line digitally printed in goldenrod that separates the dates from the events. The floral artwork at the top and the edge painting tie the overall design to the other pieces.

It’s the kind of wedding suite that feels just as perfect for a vineyard or lakeside venue as it would for an estate or backyard affair. The look is elevated, timeless, and deeply romantic.
