Deckle Edge Invitations for French Wedding
Everything about Chloe and Jonathan’s wedding invitation suite is dreamy. From the handmade paper (including matching envelopes!), a custom crest, and the darling die-cut reply card, there is much to see and swoon over! We were excited when our dear friend, Signed & Sealed by Steph, brought us these custom-created deckle edge invitations.

The invitation features letterpress printing in cool gray for the text and the regal crest that encircles the bride and groom’s initials. The handmade paper has a natural deckle edge, introducing subtle texture, while the blind emboss floral accents create an organic border and add even more texture. A tall belly band (not pictured) features a full flood of a custom blue hue and a full-color digitally printed bouquet coordinating with the invitation’s floral border.

A rehearsal dinner card, a welcome party card, and an invitation to a goodbye party held the day after the ceremony round out the suite. All of these cards feature gold matte foil stamping on handmade paper. A formal border sets the rehearsal dinner card apart, while a floral sprig differentiates the welcome part card, and fun seagull motifs make the beach day card stand out.
