Claudia and Brian worked with our NYC store to create their custom wedding invitation suite. The design is refined and classic, while a belly band with a custom illustration introduces a fun, personal touch.

Our 2-ply cotton stock holds a deep impression to showcase the black letterpress printing and champagne matte foil stamping. The foil edge, also in champagne matte, adds an extra glimmer. The envelope liner is a custom pattern in dark gray digital on our ballet text, for a subtle use of color.

The wedding was held at The Bowery Hotel, so what better detail to include than an illustration of the Bowery Boy, the logo of this decadent hotel? The vellum belly band is just large enough to cover the bride and groom’s names when it is on the invitation, although the names are still visible through the 40# vellum. The jaunty Bowery Boy is centered on the belly band and is likely the first detail guests notice when they remove the invitation from the envelope. The belly band is more than a whimsical detail; it’s functional, securing all the cards in the suite and creating a bundle that neatly fits inside the envelope.
