Bailey and Noah chose to customize our Underwood V.2 design for their wedding. The couple made some simple but significant changes to elevate the design and make it their own. They worked with our dear friend Johnna of Big City Bride to create these lovely tone-on-tone wedding invitations.

The structured typography and clean layout keep everything polished and intentional. The bold serif font for the names and the delicate sans serif font for the text introduce a modern feel. A muted, earthy color palette feels organic and grounded, and is perfect for a fall wedding. The use of tone-on-tone printing is elegant yet trendy. Subtle debossed florals create texture. Blind debossing presses into the paper without ink and, in this instance, adds charm to the look without feeling busy.

For the reply card, the debossed floral artwork from the invitation is rearranged into a bouquet and letterpress printed in our rosebud ink. This creates consistency across the pieces while still keeping things fresh and unique.

The delicate florals and tonal printing soften the modern look, creating a dreamy, elegant wedding suite. It was a pleasure to create these lovely wedding invitations for Bailey and Noah, and it’s always a pleasure to work with Big City Bride.
