vintage inspired gray and gold wedding invitations

Marie and Nathan worked with our friends at The Village Invites to design their vintage inspired gray and gold wedding invitations for their winter wedding in Florida. Using our A Bientot design as inspiration they made some alterations that gave the design a more refined feel – like switching to a vertical layout and swapping the sweet stripes for our more formal diego pattern.
