Elegant Coastal Letterpress Wedding Invitations with Pocketfold

Classic coastal elegance meets East Coast style, and fun, nautical details in Maura and Sean’s letterpress wedding stationery. This couple worked with our friend Heidi from Parchment Fine Papers to craft their custom invitations.
Ivory 2-ply smooth cotton paper holds a deep letterpress impression. The paper showcases the graceful swirls of the script font used for the bride and groom’s names. The double-line border adds a refined, traditional look that complements the formal layout and typography. Navy ink establishes an undeniably nautical vibe that carries across each piece in the suite.
