Everything about this invitation suite was gorgeous. The paper we chose was lightly textured and felt like a letterpress stock (even though we printed these digitally). The graphics were pale green and coral succulents, and the text was all soft shades of grey. These romantic, feminine invitations were one of the last projects our intern Eric completed before he moved out to the West coast, which is coincidentally where this lovely wedding took place as well.

I love this invitation. It’s one of the only single layer custom invitations we have ever done that I actually loved every part of. The card stock they chose was a duplex with a dark grey damask pattern on the back, and a lighter grey solid matte on the front where we printed a luxe framed monogram and the invitation text. The envelopes had the same damask liner as the back of the invitations, and for a pop of color we chose a bright coral reply card.

This was another of my favorites this year. The invitation was neutral and formal using a palette of black, a tiny bit of ivory, and shades of gold. We used all metallic stocks, which set an extra elegant tone. One thing that was different about this invitation suite is that it included a card that listed the dates, venues, and locations of all of the wedding events to make it easy for guests to keep track of where they were supposed to be and when. To coordinate with her invitations, we also designed programs and rehearsal dinner invitations in the same color scheme.

For this Captiva Island wedding, we chose one of this year’s hottest colors, a deep coral, paired it with a funky chartreuse kaleidoscope pocket, and used a blocky roman font to create balance in the design. The simple monogram kept the look modern and clean, while adding a personal touch to the outside of the pocket. This save the date card was the perfect precursor to Katherine and Jamie’s wedding invitation, which incorporated the same colors and overall style, using a pocket card to envelop all four of their enclosure cards: a schedule of weekend events, information about the resort and surrounding area, a reply card, and a hotel card listing accommodations info for their guests.

 

Adrianna’s Telegram

What goes better with a vintage wedding at the Packard Museum than a telegram invitation? Answer: Nothing. Adrianna’s invitation topped the creativity charts and didn’t miss a single detail, from the full stops after each piece of information to the fun text frames we peppered throughout the natural kraft pocket-fold style invitation. We had a hard time finding the perfect shade of periwinkle that wasn’t too purple and wasn’t too blue, but Adi pulled through and provided some scrap booking stock she found for us to cut and use as her accent layer. Once we had the perfect accent color, we then matched small parts of the text to her color to tie everything together. Special delivery, indeed!

Her save the date was a single card with the infamous pointing hand graphic, pointing at a tiny envelope which housed a card bearing the date of the wedding. She mailed them in paper bag style envelopes, giving guests a glimpse of what to expect: a classic wedding at a truly unique venue.

A school-themed invitation is a unique way for two teachers to announce their upcoming nuptials… We created college-ruled card stock, school days verbiage (check out the RSVP card with a “due date”) and a cool red date stamp, and tied it all together with red gros grain ribbon. The invitation and reply post card were slipped into a simple portable pocket and an outer manila envelope and mailed to their guests. This invitation is an oldie but goodie for sure, as it was one of the first really creative invitations we did back in 2007 for a fun couple who wanted to take a risk with their invitations and express their personalities by choosing an invitation that truly represented who they are.
