Romantic Letterpress Wedding Invitations with Blind Emboss Border

Delicate details, charming florals, and a timeless style are all expertly woven together for Rachel and Park’s wedding stationery. The couple worked with our dear friend Erin of Smitten Boutique to customize our Tristan design and transform it into these romantic letterpress wedding invitations.

The floral toile pattern from the inspiration design appears as a border on the invitation and brunch card. The border is more organic on the brunch card, while a blind embossed double-line border separates the text from the floral artwork on the invitation. The embossed border shape of the invitation is a recreation of our Charleston die-cut, which is used for the reply card. The thick letterpress border of the reply card follows the gentle curves of the die cut and mimics the invitation’s dual-line border.

The color palette is warm and gentle. The use of a single ink color for each card in the suite is monochromatic and on trend, but it’s also simplified, approachable, and effortlessly classic. The silk ribbon tied in a bow adds a couture touch.

Everything about this design is graceful and deeply intentional. There is a curated feel to the suite. This job is an excellent example of how you can take one component of a design, such as the floral artwork, and transform it into something drastically different yet equally lovely.
