Sara and Adam created a memorable save the date that was sure to get their guests excited about the invitation. A bold custom illustration is the standout feature of this card. The presentation is soft and tailored, and the design is completely custom.

The gorgeous, symmetrical crest has an old-world medallion-style feel. The raised detail of the embossing stands out on our 2-ply paper. No ink is used for a blind emboss, so the texture of our cotton paper stands out, and the lack of color gives the ornate artwork an almost minimalist feel. The raised artwork contrasts with the letterpress text, which is pressed into the paper, adding an extra layer of visual interest.

These shower invitations are absolutely delightful. A sweet die-cut shape, a silk ribbon, and a charming floral envelope liner make for a mesmerizing combination. The hostess worked with Debbie of AGI Events to customize our Lilibet design. The inspiration design started as a Valentine’s Day card, but effortlessly transformed into a shower invitation.

Invitation

• letterpress ink: amethyst
• fonts: petunia serif + petunia script
• paper: bella smooth cotton 1-ply white
• size: 6.75” x 5.9”
• die cut shape: cd-132
• silk ribbon: dark lavender
• finishing: assemble with ribbon
• envelope liner: hadaway pattern in amethyst + cmyk digital on white text
• envelope: white cotton text
• envelope addressing: amethyst digital on the front and the back
• job: 76077

The heart-shaped invitation instantly sets a sentimental, love-centered tone. It’s sweet and pairs beautifully with the graceful script font and delicate serif font. Amethyst ink coordinates with the silk ribbon, giving everything a cohesive, dreamy look.

The floral envelope liner creates a meadow of tiny blooms against a lavender backdrop. It feels vintage-inspired, like pressed wildflowers from an old garden journal, but the clean layout and crisp white envelope keep it modern and polished.

Whimsical garden romance meets classic elegance, making this design perfect for a bridal shower or any celebration, really. Are you daydreaming about the perfect shower invitation? Locate one of our dealers to bring your stationery dreams to life! 

If you’re interested in something modern with a glimmer of foil, an eye-catching pattern, and the Seattle skyline, then these invitations are for you. The design is Art Deco with moody botanical elements. The look is bold, fresh, and playful yet retains some traditional elements. The couple, Sophia and Barret, worked with our dear friend Susie from First Impression to create these striking invitations.

The design is clean, structured, and very contemporary. Copper matte foil stamping adds warmth to the ultra black stock. The typography is streamlined and architectural, mimicking the invitation’s square shape and using the blank space as a border. The thin line illustration showcases the Seattle skyline in crisp detail.

The invite is stunning on its own, but it is adhered to a gorgeous floral backer that elevates it even further. The digitally printed backer card features a bold color palette with teal, pink, and yellow. A black background anchors the bright colors while coordinating with the invitation. This floral pattern softens the drama and adds personality. The contrast between the black card and vibrant botanical prints creates a serious visual impact.

The remaining cards in the suite, the reply card and weekend card, feature a flood of digitally printed black ink with pink or yellow borders, which match the hues from the floral pattern. These cards are printed in reverse on our Bella smooth cotton in bright white, meaning the text is the unprinted area. This technique allows the text to appear in the bright white of the paper, providing a sharp contrast between the black background and the text.

Do you want invitations that are bold, with graphic-inspired artwork, or that have a moody elegance? Work with one of our dealers for expert guidance and assistance in creating the wedding invitations of your dreams.

Nicole and Michael worked with our Bella Figura NYC store to customize our Hadaway design for their destination wedding. The nuptials were held at the Ottolire Resort in southern Italy, and these letterpress invitations, complete with hand calligraphy, captured the romance of the couple’s love story and the region.

Invitation

• letterpress ink: bordeaux
• hand calligraphy: serena by Virginia Lucas Hart
• font: aria text g2 regular/italic
• paper: bella smooth cotton 2-ply bright white
• size: f-8
• finishing: assemble with mounting card and belly band
• envelope liner: custom-supplied pattern in cmyk digital on bright white text
• envelope: bordeaux text
• envelope addressing: white digital on the front and the back
• job: 75047

The overall color palette creates a look that feels both charming and refined. The rich letterpress border adds depth and formality, while the delicate hand calligraphy by Virginia Lucas Hart introduces a sense of timeless romance. The mix of flowing calligraphy for the names and clean serif text for the details strikes that perfect balance between traditional and contemporary.

The striped envelope liner adds a playful, preppy touch, infusing the design with a lighthearted vibe. Paired with the deep burgundy envelope, the look feels cohesive.

A mounting card with a belly band is adhered to the back of the invitation. A custom monogram featuring the couple’s initials adorns the belly band, which secures the reply and details cards. This ensures all cards are held in place within the envelope and allows for a neat presentation.

The invitation design is carried over to the reply card and details card. Lighter tones of letterpress ink, Old Rose and Wisteria, appear on each card, creating an ombre-like effect across all of the cards.

This entire suite is polished, romantic, and effortlessly chic. We wish Nicole and Michael the best. Are you daydreaming about hand calligraphy and romantic invitations? Do you like the idea of a mounting card with a belly band to secure auxiliary cards? Contact us or work with one of our dealers to create your dream invitations.

Hand calligraphy in the Opulent style by Debi Zeinert ensures the invitation stands out. The flowing calligraphy was done specifically for this stationery suite, with each card including at least a couple of lines. The use of calligraphy throughout the suite ties all the pieces together from a design standpoint while adding a touch of extravagance to each card.

The invitation features engraving, a classic printing method that creates a raised impression. That raised impression really stands out on our luxuriously thick 3-ply paper. This printing method also emphasizes the swirls and flourishes of the hand calligraphy. 

Clover edge painting gives the invite an extra and unexpected pop of color. The mother-of-pearl silk ribbon tied in a generous bow adds a romantic, almost gift-like presentation. It’s tactile and traditional, signaling formality and intention.

The delicate floral and bird illustrations on the welcome party card introduce a subtle charm that sets the tone for this springtime wedding.

The hydrangea-shaped reception card is a standout detail. That die-cut silhouette brings personality without sacrificing elegance. This card features our Sky 2-ply paper, letterpress-printed in royal blue on both sides. The tone-on-tone printing is gorgeous and on trend.

This engraved wedding invitation suite is warmly inviting. All the details are stunning on their own, but together they create something truly special. Locate one of our dealers to create your own custom wedding invitations.

Delicate botanical illustrations paired with a springtime-inspired color palette and an elegant, stately design made us fall in love with these invitations. The couple, Abigail and Charles, worked with our dear friend Laura of Fine Lines of Katonah to customize our Burklyn design for their special day.

The typography is elegant and formal. Even the beveled edges give the invitation a traditional feel, but edge-painting the 45-degree bevel in our goldenrod ink adds color and a fun sense of whimsy. Edge painting also helps the bevel edges stand out.

The floral pattern on the belly band was created especially for this invitation and is composed of the blue flower motif from the inspiration design suite and the yellow flower motif, which is part of our available artwork. We can create patterns using our existing motif library or based on your direction. Do you want a flower that isn’t part of our collection? Or do you want to change the color or remove leaves from one of our existing floral motifs? Let us know.

The floral accent on the rehearsal dinner invitation gives the card a bit more of a casual feel, but it’s still lovely. The details card has a slight modern feel, thanks to the vertical line digitally printed in goldenrod that separates the dates from the events. The floral artwork at the top and the edge painting tie the overall design to the other pieces.

It’s the kind of wedding suite that feels just as perfect for a vineyard or lakeside venue as it would for an estate or backyard affair. The look is elevated, timeless, and deeply romantic. Do you want to include bevel edges or a custom pattern in your dream invitations? You can work with us or one of our dealers to create your perfect invitation design!

These menus evoke an old-world tropical elegance with a hint of glamour, and we love them for that. We worked with our dear friend Heather of Posh Parties & Paper to create this custom-designed foil-stamped menu for Christina and Sam’s nuptials.

The menu text appears in gold matte foil for an elevated and luxurious look. Our 3-ply Bella smooth cotton paper holds a deep impression, while the pillowy-soft texture adds a tactile element.

Menu

• digital inks: antique gold + cmyk (front)
• foil stamping: gold matte (back)
• font: aston script + adobe caslon
• paper: bella smooth cotton 3-ply white
• size: 7” circle
• die cut shape: bp-11
• job: 75941

A custom monogram featuring a palm tree and the couple’s initials adorns the top. This monogram also appears throughout other stationery pieces in the suite, creating a sense of consistency. The flowing script font is formal yet romantic, and the serif font keeps everything classic and balanced.

Digital printing appears on the reverse side. The muted toile illustration in the background adds depth, nostalgia, and a touch of Old Florida charm. The artwork is refined and relaxed, reinforcing the quiet luxury tone. Each menu bears a guest’s name in our antique gold digital ink. Customizing each piece with variable printing adds a personal, inviting touch.

The circular die-cut shape immediately sets it apart. The menu is soft, refined, and unexpected. The circle shape also nests beautifully in a place setting, creating a welcoming atmosphere for guests.

This foil-stamped menu feels intimate and intentional. It is polished, worldly, and timeless. It was a joy working on all of the stationery pieces for Christina and Sam’s big day, and it’s always a pleasure working with Posh Parties & Paper. Would foil stamping, toile artwork, or variable printing help set the tone for your wedding stationery? Work with one of our dealers to create the perfect stationery for your big day.

Caroline and Blake wanted something timeless, romantic, and refined for their invitation suite, and that is certainly what they received. This couple worked with our dear friends at Shindig Paperie to create these elegant letterpress invitations that feature an absolutely stunning watercolor-inspired gatefold.

The focal point of this wedding stationery suite is the chapel illustration. The artwork is digitally printed on our 40# vellum and features delicate, airy washes of green and blue. The details of the chapel are painstakingly replicated, from the coloration of the stacked stone to the window frames. The brushwork gives it an almost ethereal or storybook quality. The artwork captures the chapel’s graceful, serene nature. The placement of the chapel on the gatefold allows the invitation to peek through, offering guests a subtle glimpse as soon as they open the envelope.

The invitation’s typography reinforces that classic tone. A flowing script font creates a formal feel while maintaining a light and airy effect. The generous spacing and centered layout add to the overall sense of quiet sophistication.

The addition of our Cloud stock for the rehearsal dinner and welcome party card introduces just enough contrast to keep the suite feeling fresh.

This letterpress invitation suite sets the tone for a graceful, heartfelt celebration. It was a pleasure to work on Caroline and Blake’s invitations. Whether you want a charming gatefold, custom artwork, or tips to create something custom that fits your vision, our dealers can make it happen. 

Sweet, storybook-inspired artwork and a muted color palette give these adorable letterpress baby shower invitations an understated, yet cohesive look. We worked with our friends from Catherine Gretta Affairs of Distinction to create this lovely card for Kelley and Nic’s new arrival.

The front of the card is adorned with darling bear artwork, while a rabbit appears on both the registry and insert cards. The Serengeti Baby Bear motif and the Potter Rabbit motifs are found in the ‘Baby’ category of our motif selection. The delicate lines of the baby bear and bunny illustrations are minimal but expressive. They feel whimsical without being cartoonish. The use of espresso letterpress ink keeps the look warm and refined, giving it a classic, almost pen-and-ink storybook vibe.

The script font is light, airy, and softly curved, creating a look that is friendly yet elegant. The typography complements the illustrations instead of competing with them. The arched text adds a classic invitation touch that feels traditional and relaxed.

The bee artwork from the baby bear motif inspired the envelope liner pattern. White digital ink on our latte stock is subtle and supports the neutral color scheme.

These letterpress baby shower invitations are cozy and timeless. The design leans into a classic, nursery-inspired look while also introducing a modern feel.

The typography has a refined feel, thanks to the serif and script fonts. Gold matte foil lends the design warmth and a sense of luxury. The invitation has a 45-degree bevel edge, gilded in matte gold foil. The use of foil highlights the crisp lines and slope of the bevel.

The reply card and reception card have the same sense of understated luxury. The thick foil-stamped borders frame the text and create consistency between these cards. To add interest, the foil border on the reply card runs along the edge. On the reception card, the foil border is set within the edge of the card.

A soft floral pattern on the belly band and envelope liner balances the formality of the design. Muted colors and delicate roses surrounded by butterflies are romantic and whimsical. The pattern lends the design a dreamy element. 

A custom monogram lends the belly band some personal flair. The interlocking double ‘M’ monogram represents the couple, Meghan and Maxwell. This personal detail is unique and a lovely display of the couple.

The design is thoughtfully composed. All the details work together to create wedding stationery that is elegant yet personal. It is always a joy to work with Bering’s. Our dealers are highly skilled and can assist you throughout the design process, helping you create the wedding stationery of your dreams.

Samantha and Benjamin wanted something elegant and classic with a touch of nature to celebrate their wedding, which was held in a vineyard. They were able to do just that with these letterpress invitations with botanical accents on handmade paper. This invitation beautifully merges our Leone and Novella designs. Please note that our Novella design is retired, which means we no longer maintain samples. You can still borrow elements from this design, or use it as is for your stationery.

• job: 75327

Handmade paper has a wonderful texture, and the deckle edge always catches the eye. We love letterpress printing on this stock because it beautifully holds the impression, creating even more texture. The navy color palette is crisp and traditional, especially on white paper. The foliage accents create a loose border that frames the text. The botanical line illustrations came from the envelope liner pattern. The same botanical artwork appears in some capacity on all the cards. Using the same illustrations across all pieces creates a cohesive feel.

This design choice adds contrast and flow while maintaining structure. The use of a No. 10-size card is unexpected but lends the design an upscale, chic vibe. White matte foil stamping on our metallic Azalea paper softens some of the modern elements with a touch of romance. 

The darling envelope liner features tiny hearts foil-stamped in pearl shine for a subtle glimmer.
