Our now-retired Ninette design is the perfect inspiration for Alex and Gage’s save the dates. This couple worked with our dear friend Jessica of Prickly Pear Press to create these gorgeous cards, the perfect mix of a floral and coastal aesthetic.

The florals immediately set the tone. Soft pinks, dusty blues, creamy whites, and gentle greens are arranged in a loose composition. The artwork has a vintage botanical illustration quality, but the spacing and layout of the florals, anchored asymmetrically to one side, keep it fresh and modern.

The typography elevates everything. The names are set in a refined yet extravagant serif font. Gold matte foil stamping adds a sense of understated luxury and draws the eye to the flourishes. The smaller text appears in a more subdued serif font and is letterpress-printed in our Wedgewood ink, which gives it a breezy, seaside feel, perfect for a wedding on Martha’s Vineyard. 

The card is a no. 10 size, which measures 9.19” x 3.81”. This size is unexpected and modern. The landscape orientation builds on that modern feel. The envelope liner is a single-color digital flood of Wedgewood, ensuring a perfect color match with the letterpress printing.

These save the dates are polished and relaxed while still maintaining a formal feel. Work with one of our dealers to find and customize the perfect save the date for your wedding!
