We printed these letterpress wedding invitations, a customization of our Keswick design, for an upcoming wedding in France. They are printed in espresso and cloud 9 inks and feature a vertical orientation and a pretty espresso pocketfold, making this invitation suite a unique interpretation of one of our most popular designs. We love the pretty letterpress inserts and the letterpress thank you notes we also had the distinct pleasure of printing for this couple, all perfectly coordinated to their event in matching espresso and cloud 9 inks.

Our Lovebirds letterpress wedding invitation design is one we just absolutely adore. For this couple’s wedding we printed it in espresso and surf inks. It’s modern and playful and we find it completely charming.

Printed in cardinal and espresso inks, this recent customization is our Majorca design. It features an espresso envelope liner and a cool square reply card and directions card, the perfect complement to the square invitation shape. This couple also opted to go with unique square letterpress thank you notes in our Majorca design that we previously featured here on the blog.  We love the way all of the pieces work together to bring a fresh modern touch to an otherwise formal wedding invitation suite.

A recent Bella Figura bride sent us photos of her beautiful letterpress wedding programs in action and we couldn’t resist sharing them. Ally and Chris used our Cartoccio design printed in espresso ink on our ivory cotton paper for their wedding invitations and their beautiful ceremony programs. We hole drilled the programs, which they later tied with pretty purple ribbon. We love how they turned out and it’s a joy for us to see photos of them from Ally and Chris’s big day. A big thank you to them for sharing and to their wedding photographer Jennifer Chase for the beautiful photos!

This letterpress wedding invitation set is a customization of our Soleil design printed in sea mist and espresso inks and paired with a metallic bronze envelope liner. We’re in love with this pairing of colors and also love how the Soleil design looks when customized for our A7 paper size instead of the square of the sample design. It’s both perfectly elegant and playfully modern, a combination we adore.

We created these custom letterpress invitations for an event hosted by Nestlé last spring. They are a custom design derived from our Walden design, printed in antique gold and espresso inks with rounded corners and elegant metallic gold edge painting. Nestlé had these invitations printed for a celebration in honor of their first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Gold Certification, which is a certification bestowed upon buildings which meet or surpass rigorous standards for energy efficient and environmentally sustainable design in the architecture community. Bravo, Nestlé! We love working with businesses striving to do good things for the world.

This unique letterpress thank you card was one of our favorite customizations of 2009. It’s our Majorca design printed in espresso and cardinal inks with a fun square shape that makes it truly one of a kind.

From the perfect letterpress invitations to the place cards at the reception, we love working with couples to create really fun letterpress pieces that perfectly coordinate with the look and feel of their day. Custom letterpress place cards, which can also be used as escort cards, are the perfect way to tie in the colors and motifs of your invitations and are one of those finishing touches that just make an event really shine.

These cute little place cards feature our Joyful Yarrow design printed in pewter and yarrow inks. They are decidedly modern and playful, but still incredibly chic.

A much more formal take on the traditional place card, these pretty cards feature a custom calligraphy monogram printed in espresso ink. These letterpress place cards are the definition of elegant.

This letterpress save the date is a customization of our Guild design. The warm espresso and french vanilla inks make it a truly stunning and incredibly elegant design, paired with that extra little touch of luxury with a rich espresso envelope liner. Printed for an upcoming winter wedding in New York City, this is the perfect save the date for a really luxurious affair.

When we printed the letterpress wedding invitations for Stewart and Darryl’s October 2008 wedding, we had a feeling that their day was going to be something truly magical. When we recently had the opportunity to see their amazing wedding photos, captured by Eleise Theuer, we knew we were right. Married just one year and three days after their first date, after having met on match.com, Stewart and Darryl crafted a celebration that was thoughtful, personal and rich with handmade details and a sensitivity to the environment. Melville Farm in Reedville, Virginia was the only natural choice for their wedding location as the property has belonged to Stewart’s family since the 1930s and she remembers spending every weekend there as a child. The farm setting provided their inspiration in pulling all of the details together and worked perfectly with the deep green and espresso color palette the couple chose; he picked the green and she picked the brown. The result? An absolutely charming and beautiful wedding celebration.
