Genevieve and Dana worked with our dear friend Lindsey of Mrs. Post Fine Stationery & Gifts to create their contemporary yet charming letterpress wedding invitations. This design holds extra meaning for the pair because one half of the happy couple is a graphic designer who personally designed their invitations, including both of the illustrations. 

The invitation features a traditional layout. The bride and groom’s names are highlighted in an elaborate script font while the remaining text appears in a serif font. The standout feature of the invitation is a custom illustration of a building from the wedding venue. The building peaks out from the trees, setting the tone for an intimate celebration. Both the text and the illustration are letterpress printed in our holly ink. The dark green color suits this outdoor wedding perfectly, and our 2-ply smooth cotton paper leaves a deep impression. Rounded corners give the card a contemporary look, while still maintaining a sense of formality.

The details card features the same aesthetic. A thin line border on the front of the card hugs the curve of the rounded corners. A darling hand-drawn map on the back of the details card highlights the locations of various events held during the wedding weekend.

We’re always happy to create an invitation or customize one of our designs, but it’s special when we’re given the opportunity to bring someone’s vision to life. We wish all the best for Genevieve and Dana, and thank you again to Mrs. Post Fine Stationery & Gifts for bringing this wedding suite to us.
