Marisol and Terence’s foil-stamped wedding invitations have an old-world charm and plenty of refined details, plus some unexpected design elements that keep things light, fun, and glamorous. This couple worked with our dear friend Carolyn from Quintessence Fine Papers and Gifts to create these invitations.

At its core, this custom wedding invitation design leans into classic formality. The couple’s initials appear in a custom, ornate crest at the top, immediately setting the tone. A traditional layout, coupled with a flowing script font and a classic serif font, creates a balanced, structured feel. Champagne matte foil stamping is elegant, while the broad, foil-stamped border adds a decadent touch.

The envelope liner features a custom illustration of the Chicago History Museum, the location of the reception. This is a lovely personal element that is completely unique to this design. The envelope liner features bold white digital printing on walnut text, adding a contemporary feel to the invitation suite.

The reception card is a stunner, featuring foil stamping on our cocoa velvet. The velvet is adhered to our metallic sand 1-ply, giving the card structure and a hint of glimmer. An oval die-cut shape further distinguishes this card, while the broad foil-stamped border aligns with the invitation design.

The whimsical details card also features our metallic sand stock, but this time it’s die cut into the shape of a butterfly. This is a charming card that succinctly conveys important info while introducing a fun, unexpected design element.

This design blends classic elements with subtle modern touches, creating something that is both timeless and fresh. Hanna and Alex worked with our dear friend Lori of Uptowne Papers to customize our now-retired Lennox design. Our designs are always available to be turned into something custom, but we no longer maintain samples once retired. So if you see something that is retired, you can still customize it for your wedding invitations.

The design puts a modern spin on the concept of a monogram by spelling out the couple’s first names. Parallel lines above and below the names break up the accompanying floral artwork. The floral artwork visually anchors the names while maintaining a neat and structured composition. The look is contemporary yet still embodies classic design elements and botanical elegance.

The typography balances formality with a graceful softness. In the invitation text, the couple’s names appear in a handwriting-inspired font, adding warmth and a personal vibe. The layout is symmetrical and utilizes generous spacing for a polished look.

Foil stamping is always stunning, but the mix of white matte foil on our metallic vista paper is lovely and sophisticated. The flat finish of the foil contrasts with the paper’s shimmer.

The envelope liner reverses the color palette of the cards and features our lilac shine foil on white text. Nothing says formal quite like a floral envelope liner, but this design continues to put a modern twist on traditional design. The enlarged floral artwork is off-center, creating a more current, on-trend feel. The liner adds a romantic garden feel without becoming overly ornate.

Do you want something modern, but still has a classic feel? Or do you like the idea of mixing matte foil and metallic paper? Whatever you dream up, we can help turn your vision into your wedding stationery. Contact us or work with one of our dealers to create your perfect wedding invitations!

We worked with our dear friends at No Regrets in Oklahoma to create Zoe and Joe’s engagement party invitations. The sleek design is contemporary with hints of romance.

Invitation

• foil stamping: white matte
• fonts: jeanne moderno + abramo script + gravesend sans
• papers: azalea 2-ply
• edge painting: white 
• card size: no. 10
• envelope liner: sweetheart pattern foil stamped in pearl shine on white text
• envelope: white cotton text
• envelope addressing: charcoal digital on the front and the back
• job: 71261

The layout is minimal, creating a contemporary feel. The fonts effortlessly shift among a thin sans serif, a bold serif, and a loose script. This design choice adds contrast and flow while maintaining structure. The use of a No. 10-size card is unexpected but lends the design an upscale, chic vibe. White matte foil stamping on our metallic Azalea paper softens some of the modern elements with a touch of romance. 

The darling envelope liner features tiny hearts foil-stamped in pearl shine for a subtle glimmer.

These engagement party invitations are stylish and joyful, perfect for a rooftop party. Do you want modern invitations with subtle hints of romance? Or do you love the look of white matte foil on metallic paper? Whatever you have your heart set on can become a reality when you work with one of our dealers.
