We love our Dash design for any less formal but still elegant affair. Erin and Jonathan didn’t stray far from the original design but did accent the design’s motifs in gold matte foil and added our simple lace patterned liner, adding just enough flair to their black and gold wedding invitations.

Nina celebrated her sixteenth birthday in style with a semi-formal party for friends at The Musikfest Café. She customized our always edgy, always bold Fugue design in a fun and flashy color palette of regalia letterpress ink and indigo shine foil.

For their recent wedding at the Vanderbilt Mansion on Fisher Island, Andrea and Steven customized our Rose design by replacing the floral motif with the hand-illustrated peacock feathers from our extensive collection. Rose gold shine foil and regalia letterpress ink were an elegantly cool combination, while a custom monogram and letterpress printed pocketfold added decorative flair to these art deco wedding invitations.

Our Irving design is a perennial favorite for modern couples looking for formal wedding invitations without the frills. Lauren and Andrew wanted gold wedding invitations for their winter wedding and opted for a neutral and sophisticated palette of gold shine foil and taupe letterpress ink. For a touch of fun (and more shine!) they added a tiny gold heart to each card.

Designed with a romantic, Bohemian bride in mind, Brenda Fox’s new Arrowhead design is equal parts rustic, youthful, and pretty. For an Arrowhead wedding, the bride and her gals would definitely don floral crowns. Unique indie touches like a macrame ceremony backdrop and feathery boutonnières would make their way to the scene as well. Last but not least – a naked cake topped with fresh flowers.

To celebrate 50 years together, Pamela and Leslie invited friends and family to a formal, black tie soiree. They carried our Lincoln diecut shape from the invitations to the reply cards and insert card, mirroring the intricate curves and angles in a gold shine foil border. Sarah Hanna’s Callaway style hand calligraphy and our metallic white gold envelope liners added elegance and sophistication to these Golden Anniversary invitations.

Double-sided printing is a great way to incorporate additional information or a second language to your wedding suite. Jamie and Michael customized our Deveril design by printing in pewter letterpress ink and silver shine foil, adding a custom cartouche to showcase their monogram. The cartouche was carried over to the back of the card, where they printed their Hebrew wedding invitations. A metallic silver envelope liner was an elegant compliment to the silver foil.

Sophie chose an icy color palette of regalia and frost shine to transform our Asteri design into her foil and letterpress Bat Mitzvah invitations. A lady-like font added a festive feel to her additional cards that included a party card, a weekend events card and a card explaining her Mitzvah project (she worked with thebooktruck.org to bring books to teens in under-served communities).

We can’t think of a sweeter, more adorable way to introduce a set of twins to the world than these customized foil and letterpress invitations based on our Royal Night design. Silver shine foil is paired with cornflower, fuchsia and navy inks on the front of the invitation while the back is covered with a scattering of foil and letterpress stars. A coordinating, design inspired envelope liner and hand calligraphy accents add to the charm and personalization of these darling invitations.

Alicia and Lawrence hosted an autumn wedding in Vermont and chose our Overlook design to compliment the outdoorsy elegance of their venue. An earthy color palette of copper shine foil and olive and prussian blue letterpress inks set the tone for these rustic wedding invitations, as did the jute envelopes lined in our natural woodgrain pattern.
