The inspiration for these custom wedding invitations came from our Harbor Beach (by Jessica Tienery) design.

Decked out with some of Debi Zeinert‘s gorgeous Spencerian calligraphy accents, this is a great spin on Amy Graham Stigler‘s original Gramercy design. Not only did our friends at Magnificent Milestones send us this customization but they dreamed it up for one of their very own! Now if you’re lucky enough to get one of these in the mail you’ve just got to ask yourself one question: am I a cow person, or a carrot person?

We love helping our Bella brides create their dream wedding invitations (and we love when they send us a glimpse of their special day!). Andrea, one of the brides we worked with this summer, selected our Aria design (by Maybelle Imasa-Stukuls) in silver shine foil and charcoal letterpress for her wedding invitations. She incorporated hand calligraphy accents in our Bescal style, and added corner rounding, foil edging and belly bands to embellish her invitation suite. Pewter and sea mist envelope liners in our European formal pattern were used to line her silver envelopes. The end result? Simply stunning.

We’re loving this Under the Tree (by Maura Gaulthier) wedding invitation suite submitted by our friends at Catherine Gretta Affairs of Distinction in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The happy couple chose to personalize their invitation a bit, by choosing a text based monogram instead of the tree motif. The patterned envelope liner is scaled down just slightly – adding cool character to this earthy color palette.

From the start the Fugue design by Kamal has captivated us by being so unique. That’s why we are completely smitten by this silvery delight. Our silver matte and silver shine foil inks enhance the cascading design and pops of our sea-side letterpress ink add a trendy splash of color.
