Kelsey and Kevin worked with our lovely and talented friends at Smitten Boutique for their invitations, and we are so glad they did! This gold matte wedding invitation suite is a customization of our Florence design.

Chambray letterpress and gold matte foil perfectly complement one another, while our 2-ply cotton paper holds a deep letterpress impression. Custom artwork of the ceremony venue is featured in gold matte foil at the top of the invitation, making the card more meaningful and personalized.
Kelsey and Kevin made this design their own by adding a vellum gatefold wrap. The original invitation design features blind embossed floral accents. The couple chose to remove that artwork from the invitation but added it to the gatefold using pearl shine foil, adding a subtle glimmer.
envelope addressing: chambray letterpress on front
All the cards in this suite have their own unique look while still maintaining a cohesive feel due to the use of consistent colors and artwork. The details card features white matte foil stamping on our asparagus velvet stock. While the events card pairs spruce letterpress, which is a similar hue to the asparagus velvet, and gold matte foil with our soft blue Bella handmade paper. The soft blue handmade paper coordinates with the chambray letterpress found on the invitation, reply card, reception card, and rehearsal dinner invitation.

This invitation suite from our dear friends at RSVP in Omaha, Nebraska, features clean lines for a modern, sophisticated look. However, the whimsical liner adds an unexpected yet perfectly coordinated touch of personality. See all the pieces up close and discover what makes this blind embossed wedding invitation so special.
This client’s job is a customization of our Sherah design. At first glance, the final printed piece strongly resembles its inspiration, including the same die-cut shape combined with a beveled and painted edge. This custom wedding invitation swaps out foil stamping for letterpress printing in our vine ink, giving the card a more vibrant and springlike appearance. The bride and groom’s names are still blind embossed. The crisp, raised text provides a stately and sophisticated feel.
The Quinn liner, a fun floral pattern, replaces the art deco-inspired Sherah pattern featured in the original. The liner adds some whimsy while still maintaining the elegance of the invitation. The foil and digital Quinn pattern is repeated on the belly band and pocket panel, along with a few accent flowers on the reply card.

A dreamy color scheme and plenty of flowers set the perfect tone for Lauren and Mitchell’s wedding. This Brooklyn duo worked with Ashley Douglass Events, and the highly skilled and talented Ashley took care of all the details to create an intimate and unforgettable event. See all of the luxurious details, including the ombre invitations, in the feature on Carats & Cake.
The first thing guests noticed about the invitations was the digitally printed vellum gatefold. The bold floral pattern stood out, providing guests a preview of the florals they would see at the ceremony and reception. The gatefold was secured with a decadent silk ribbon. Once opened, the gatefold revealed the classic and yet whimsical invitations. Ombre letterpress printing transitioned from bright pink to persimmon. The beveled edges were painted in coordinating colors that followed the same fade from one color to the other.

We worked with Kristyn at Oliver’s Twist to create this stunning wedding stationery suite that includes save the dates, invitations, and day of pieces. The family are long time clients, back to when Kristyn did the brides high school graduation announcement! The wedding took place in the bride’s backyard in the spot where the treehouse was. The bride and groom wanted their reception to feel more like a five star restaurant, inspired from some of their favorites. Because of the location, they decided to name their reception “The Good Tree”. They wanted everything, including their stationery, to be classic and clean, formal and fun.

Thanks to the help of Penny Post, we were able to create these Dark Gray and Deep Blue letterpress wedding invitations inspired by our Mila design. They chose a cool color palette with Dark Gray letterpress ink for the typography and Light Gray envelopes to pair alongside it. To add a hint of color to their set, they incorporated a Pastel Blue reply envelope and a Deep Blue digitally printed envelope liner in our Minett pattern. To finish their invitation off, they added a bevel painted in Cinder.

We worked with The Dandelion Patch to help bring these gold matte foil wedding invitations to life. Inspired by our Blyth design, they customized their invitation to have a similar intricate yet regal flair. They used our Plum paper as the backdrop which allowed the gold foil to pop off the page. The couple opted for a foil edged bevel as well. Finally, they paired a matching reply card printed in Plum letterpress ink to keep the suite consistent.
