This letterpress suite is a bright and cheerful customization of our Nigella design. All of the pieces including the letterpress wedding invitations, letterpress thank you cards and letterpress escort cards were printed in Cloud 9 and pewter inks. The final look is festive and modern with a bold floral motif that was perfect for this couple’s Hawaii wedding last month.

Threaded is another of our new letterpress wedding invitation designs for 2010 so we were particularly excited to print this customization for a wedding in Morocco. This invitation design was printed in a sophisticated pairing of pewter and taupe inks for a look that is both modern and very chic.

Another of our new designs for our 2010 collection, this invitation design is a customization of our Lana letterpress wedding invitation design. The pieces are printed in chartreuse and amethyst inks, paired with an amethyst envelope liner and features a script font inspired by handwriting. We love customizing designs for our clients and this lovely Lana customization is a great example of how playing with fonts and ink colors can create a dramatically different look, perfect for whatever the size, shape and color of your event.

Our Victoria Calligraphy design, penned exclusively for us by renowned calligrapher Sarah Hanna, is one of seven new calligraphy letterpress wedding invitations we introduced with our 2010 collection. The opportunity to print this for the first time for one of our Bella Figura clients was an absolute joy. This couple chose classic black ink for the letterpress invitation itself and opted for a modern punch of color in our Tiffany Blue ink for the reply card insert. We love how this set turned out and just can’t get enough of Sarah’s beautiful work.

This letterpress wedding invitation suite is one we actually printed last year for a wedding in the beautiful Thousand Islands region of Upstate New York. It’s such a favorite of ours we thought we’d share it to help inspire those of you who might be planning waterfront weddings of your own this year. This is a customization of our Sailboat design printed in navy and garden inks. Along with the letterpress invitation and reply card, there are several inserts including an accommodations card and a rehearsal dinner invitation, all of which are bundled up in a navy belly band in an envelope that is also lined in navy. We love everything about this set from the fun color combination to the way it has us dreaming of the beautiful summers in Upstate New York.

Over the past several months we’ve continued printing a lot of fabulous letterpress save the dates for upcoming spring and summer 2010 weddings. Recently we printed two customizations of a save the date design that we absolutely loved and couldn’t resist sharing both with you!

This version of our Champagne letterpress save the date is printed in fuchsia and pewter inks and features corner rounding for the perfect finishing touch.

This very different version of our Champagne design is printed in wine and clover inks. It’s a perfect example of how one design can be personalized in two unique ways and be equally perfect for two very different events.

Calligrapher Kelle McCarter of designsgirl, who recently designed two gorgeous new calligraphy letterpress wedding invitations for our 2010 collection, was featured on one of our favorite wedding blogs, Style Me Pretty, this week! Kelle’s beautiful calligraphy was a part of a gorgeous photoshoot that was a collaboration between a handful of incredibly talented wedding vendors for a recent From Inspiration to Reality feature on Style Me Pretty. For more of Kelle’s beautiful work, check out her Bescal and Sobelle calligraphy invitation designs for Bella Figura.

This letterpress wedding invitation is one of our new designs for 2010, Adirondack, customized for this couple using a horizontal orientation and printed in clover and peacock inks. We love the way it makes this already beautiful design really unique to this couple’s wedding.

The letterpress accommodations card insert and reply card used motifs from our Nautilus design printed in peacock and cream inks, which, when paired with the Adirondack letterpress invitations, is a tribute to the unique woodsy seaside venue where this couple will be celebrating their wedding. This kind of personal customization really allows the couple’s wedding to come to life for guests long before the day arrives and is a perfect way to kick off the festivities.

We printed these custom letterpress wedding invitations for a couple who submitted their own design and worked with us to print the perfect letterpress invitations for their wedding. The design is a cool juxtaposition between simple black type on the front and an ornate blind deboss letterpress pattern on the back. We love the unexpected pairing of type and pattern, a unique blend between tradition and modern sensibility that looks fabulous in letterpress.

This letterpress wedding invitation is our Vignette design printed in garden and pewter inks for an upcoming wedding in Hawaii. We love the color palette and swirly floral and leaf motif for an oceanfront wedding, and it should be noted that we’d really love to be in Hawaii today. With windchill, it’s about -10 degrees in Syracuse right now so a trip someplace warm sounds just right!
