Wedding Invitation with Hand Calligraphy and Monogram Tag

This custom-designed wedding invitation suite features hand calligraphy, a darling tag emblazoned with a monogram, and luxurious details, such as beveling, foil edging, and silk ribbon. We worked with our dear friend Mickey from the Social Type on this extravagant suite.
This invitation suite is lovely, but the use of hand calligraphy elevates the look. The couple chose the Wisteria hand by our dear friend, Debi Zeinert. Adding hand calligraphy to your invitation suite tacks on a few days to the design process, as the calligrapher requires time to create the artwork; however, the results are well worth it. Please note that revisions require additional turnaround time. The calligraphy looks dazzling, and the gold matte foil highlights the flourishes. The serif font maintains the formality of the look and beautifully coordinates with the hand calligraphy.

A die-cut tag bearing the bride and groom’s initials is secured around the invitation with silk ribbon. The tag features the bride’s initial in extravagant hand calligraphy, intertwined with the groom’s initial, which appears in a regal serif font.
Gold matte foil is also used to accentuate the beveled edge on both the invitation and the details card. The glimmer of the foil extenuates the 45º edge. The envelope liner is also custom and was designed using the Elide rose motif. The floral envelope liner softens the overall look of this suite while adding a hint of romance.
