This custom-designed rehearsal dinner invitation suite, created by our incredibly talented friends at Soirée Signatures for Seline and Charlie, features an elevated yet rustic look with custom patterns, plenty of texture, and crisp typography. Deep letterpress printing is complemented by a digitally printed duck illustration on our Ivory Smooth Cotton 2-ply. The 45° beveled edges are painted the same color as the letterpress printing for a cohesive look, while the digitally printed liner features a custom-supplied pattern resembling a cozy flannel.

A customized version of our Underwood liner pattern brings in additional pastels- a perfect compliment for a summer wedding.

We worked with our friends at Fitzgerald’s Fine Stationery to bring Leah and Kenneth’s dream deco invitations to life.

The liner pattern is geometric and a perfect compliment to the invitation shape. Both the pocket panel and liner pattern are from our Sherah sample.

The multicolor pattern was updated to a silhouetted version in umber and sand; summer abundance giving way to rich autumn neutrals.
