We were thrilled to see a feature in Chicago Social on Johnna and Sam’s beautiful modern wedding, brimming with personal touches, including several appearances by their mini dachshund, and lots of Chicago flair. Johnna is our friend from Big City Bride, and we previously highlighted her and Sam’s custom-designed save the date.

The wedding colors were bright pink, orange, and yellow, and each printed piece featured a single one of these colors. The modern invitation boasts a flood of bright pink letterpress, with the text created by the areas without printing.

Rehearsal Dinner Invitation

• letterpress: papaya
• paper: bella smooth cotton white 1-ply
• size: 4×4
• job #71710

The rehearsal dinner invitation features the same flood of color, with the reverse creating the text and border, except this time the ink color is papaya. All the pieces in the suite featured the same design, but in different colors. The cards were square, with the invitation being the largest, and each subsequent card sized down. Before being placed in the envelope, the cards were stacked in size order, with the largest on the bottom and the smallest on top, and secured with metallic gold thread. This presentation created a collective ombre look, since the bold colors of each card peeked out around the edges of the smaller cards stacked on top.

We are so happy for Johnna and Sam, and we were honored to print their save the date and wedding invitation suite. Do you want modern wedding invitations?
