New from our 2010 collection, we’re in love with these letterpress save the dates we recently printed, our Adirondack design. They were printed in clover and espresso inks and feature a faux bois pattern and a cute heart motif reminiscent of a tree carving. This design is fun and playful and perfect for this couple’s upcoming wedding in Big Sky, Montana.

Our Deveril design has long been one of our most popular and we love how this couple transformed it for their letterpress save the dates. The type is printed in black ink, as in the original design, but they customized the design with the addition of a classic border printed in blush ink. We love how one simple change so dramatically changes the look and feel of this letterpress save the date, making it a unique reflection of Lindsey, Andrew and their upcoming Philadelphia wedding.

These modern letterpress save the dates are a customization of our Irving design printed in black and French vanilla inks and edge painted in black. Printed for a chic winter wedding in New York City, these save the dates are perfectly suited to a hip modern event.

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.

Rounding out our posts of fun letterpress save the dates for the week, these are two cool customizations we printed for weddings this past summer. The first is our Surya design printed in rich amethyst and pool inks. We love this pairing of pretty jewel tones and suspect this will be a continuing trend in the months to come.

This letterpress save the date is a really fun customization of our Sailboat design in garden and navy inks. It’s really the perfect save the date for this couple’s wedding, which took place in the beautiful Thousand Islands region of Upstate NY, not too far from our studio in Syracuse.

In 2009 our New Calligraphy design has become one of our most popular and we love seeing how couples work with our designers and calligrapher to create something truly special for their event. These customized letterpress save the dates both feature the beautiful hand calligraphy of our New Calligraphy design, but beyond that are very different designs.

Printed in black ink on our white cotton paper, this customization is a true pairing of classic elegance and modern sophistication.

This letterpress save the date switches things up a bit with a vertical orientation. It is printed in tea rose ink on our 2-ply ivory cotton paper with edge painting to match.

While the rest of the world is gearing up for the holidays, around here we’re hard at work helping couples prepare for their upcoming summer 2010 weddings. We’ve been printing a lot of really fabulous letterpress save the dates in recent weeks and had to take a moment to share a couple of our latest favorites. Both of these customizations are great examples of how completely personal you can make one of our Bella Figura letterpress designs just by playing with ink colors, fonts and layout.

This fun letterpress save the date is a customization of our Champagne design, printed here in amethyst and garden inks. The layout is simple, keeping the emphasis on the sans serif type asking guests to save the date. A website address is provided in the lower corner so guests have easy access to further details and information about the event while keeping the design of the save the date itself clean and modern.

Using our Mimosa design, this couple opted for a vertical orientation with champagne and garden inks to make this design their own. The play between all lowercase serif type and all uppercase serif type for their names makes it a bit more playful and fun than a more traditional layout. We love these vibrant colors – they’ll be perfect for a summer wedding!

When checking out our letterpress gallery, keep in mind that all of our designs can be easily customized to suit the personality of your event. Love a design but wish it were printed in red instead of purple? We can do that and much more to help you make a design uniquely yours, just as we did with these two couples when designing their save the dates.
