Fresh and Romantic Antique Gold Wedding Invitations

We had the opportunity to work with Hannah to bring the invitations for her and Andrew’s wedding to life. A combination of classic block, and modern script fonts keeps the suite fresh. Antique gold letterpress is used throughout, with a classic color antique gold envelope liner coordinating perfectly. A bow in our mother of pearl silk ribbon ties the suite together.

Introducing Ryann

Meghan O’Brien designed Ryann, part of our 2024 wedding collection and shared her design process:

Before creating Ryann, I knew I wanted to build a suite that would be inspired by coastal New England. While most of our work day to day is done on the computer, it’s nice to be able to get some paints out and have total creative freedom; which is how Ryann got started. I painted an abstract piece, with a slightly Fauvist style using cool-toned blocky colors and painterly brushstrokes. The subject of the piece was a Cape Cod marina with sailboats and hydrangeas. That painting was used for the liner, and the rest of the suite built from that.

I painted a few more coastal motifs in the same style for the details accordion, and then Carolina ink felt like the perfect coastal blue for this suite. The typography is a mix of modern serifs and a vintage script to create visual interest that allows the invitation to stand alone, with no extra motifs. 

letterpress ink: carolina | fonts: 1769 display + wordless script + argent cf | paper: bella smooth cotton white 2-ply | invite size: f-8 | bevel: 45º | edge painting: carolina + cobalt ombre | liner: coast pattern in cmyk | envelope: bella cotton white | digital addressing ink: carolina 

As with all of our designs, the colors of Ryann can be customized and reimagined. Above, Meghan mocked up a more earthy tone colorway of the invitation and the save the date. The invitation is copper shine on ivory paper with a bevel edge in nutmeg, and the save the date is white matte foil on metallic copper paper with the border blind embossed. 

Romantic Spruce Invitations on Handmade Paper

We worked with Donna of Designs by Donna to create Nikki and Robert’s gorgeous suite. Our Denton sample inspired the layout. The couple chose to use our handmade ivory stock with spruce letterpress; a perfect combination to evoke the lush venue. Our Vienne liner pattern in matching spruce brings a touch of florals.

Subtle Romantic Invitations for a Utah Wedding

We worked with our friends at Papier Girl to bring Carrie and Kevin’s wedding invitations to life. Our Modernity sample was the inspiration for the fonts and foil stamped border. Denim and mink matte are the perfect color combination to introduce the wedding palette, and the addition of our Elon Frame 3 brings a subtle botanical element. The liner from our Drift suite is a nod to the city of Provo, Utah. A crisp mother of pearl silk bow completes the suite.
