Classic wedding at the Chicago History Museum

Rob and Blair chose a timeless look for their custom wedding invitations to help set the tone for their classic wedding at the Chicago History Museum. We combined submitted calligraphy accents with a classic serif font to create their design, and printed the suite in charcoal ink on our white cotton paper. The couple continued the muted color palette on their wedding day, with Blair’s bridesmaids donning gray, floor-length gowns by Jenny Yoo, and carrying lush bouquets in soft shades of pink and peach. White linens and floral centerpieces carried the theme through to the reception, which featured unique personal touches including the groom’s favorite dish and live entertainment!
