This Sonoma Calligraphy (by Maybelle Imasa-Stukuls) letterpress wedding invitation set is without a doubt absolutely gorgeous! The invitation is printed in Black and Colorless Blind Deboss inks on our 1-ply white paper. Both the invitations and flat place cards are edge painted in our striking metallic gold ink. Using Light Peach ink as an accent on their flat place cards, and envelope liner really adds character to this unique set! We see this invitation being used for a very intimate and elegant wedding.

In preparation for our first trek to the National Stationery Show this past week, we joined forces with our sister company (and BFF) Smock to send out a fabulous letterpress invitation to show attendees. The design features our Simple Geometrics pattern in blind deboss paired with gorgeous calligraphy from Bella Figura calligrapher Sarah Hanna printed in our Prussian ink. Watermelon edge painting and a pairing of great Smock invitations made for the perfect letterpress package.

To coordinate with their booklet letterpress invitations, we worked with Jennifer and Aret to create special letterpress pieces for their wedding weekend. A welcome booklet detailed weekend events and details and we also printed tea length letterpress dinner menus and table number cards. Oversized letterpress thank you cards (which will later hold a wedding photo) were the perfect finishing touch. Everything was printed in clover and blind deboss on our white cotton paper for a chic and completely sophisticated look.

Our Peacock Feathers letterpress invitations are edgy and chic in shades of watermelon, British rose, papaya, shell and blind deboss paired with glitzy metallic gold edge painting. (Photo credits: Invitation by Bella Figura. Lower images by Erin Hearts Court.)

We love this striking 3-color letterpress customization of our Vendage design. Printed in mustard and Mediterranean inks paired with blind deboss, this design also showcases sophisticated calligraphy accents from Bella Figura callligrapher Debi Zeinert. The combination takes a very modern design and makes it incredibly elegant and chic, a twist we can’t help but love.

We printed these amazing letterpress wedding invitations, our Nautilus design, for a wedding at sea. They feature 3-color letterpress in light sapphire and black inks with a schooner motif in blind deboss. The reception card features the anchor from the Nautilus suite and the couple submitted their own skull and crossbones motif to complete the look. We love the pretty pirate-inspired feel of these invitations!

We absolutely love this unique customization of our Champagne design! Letterpress printed in clover and blind deboss for a tropical destination wedding, we worked with this couple to create a small booklet by fastening the different elements of their invitation suite together with grommets. The page sizes are stepped to create tabs and labeled to identify which page contains what information. The booklet contains an invitation, an events card, a directions and accommodations card, and a reply card that is perforated to be torn out and returned.

We simply adore this customization of our String Calligraphy letterpress wedding invitation design, which features the hand calligraphy of Bella Figura calligrapher Patricia Mumau of Primele Studio. It was letterpress printed in black ink on our 2-ply cotton paper and features papaya edge painting. The backside of the invitations as well as the escort cards and favor cards all showcase our Emile design in blind deboss, while the letterpress thank you cards and envelopes all feature a custom designed, blind deboss tree motif, perfect for this South African safari wedding. To complete this beautiful custom design, the envelopes are lined in champagne and the favor cards were hole drilled and grommeted.

New for 2010, this three-color letterpress invitation features our Paradise design. The letterpress invitations and accommodations cards were printed in taupe and pool inks and feature a floral pattern in blind deboss, while the reply cards were printed in taupe and blind deboss. Chic pool envelope liners are the perfect finishing touch.

Last year we had the opportunity to print beautiful letterpress wedding invitations for the fall wedding of Ashley and Christian. Today we are thrilled that their wedding is featured on Style Me Pretty! Married at Houston’s First Presbyterian Church with the reception following at The Junior League of Houston, Ashley and Christian created an incredibly elegant affair that was the perfect blend of old world charm and modern sophistication.

Ashley and Christian chose our timeless Classic Calligraphy design for their letterpress invitations, printed in espresso and featuring a custom blind deboss monogram. Printed on our ivory cotton paper, the final look is nothing short of perfectly refined and elegant. For much more of Ashley and Christian’s wedding, as photographed by their amazing photographer Tanja Lippert, make sure to visit Style Me Pretty.

Congratulations Ashley and Christian and thank you for allowing us to share your beautiful wedding with Style Me Pretty readers!
