We love seeing the real weddings of our customers, but it’s an extra-special treat when we get to see them in print! Martha Stewart Weddings magazine featured not one, but two real weddings of Bella Figura brides & grooms in their Fall 2012 issue. The first wedding featured our modern Pyramid design by Ellie Snow, while the second showcased our Garden Vine design by Erin Jang. Check out some of the other fantastic publications that Bella Figura has been spotted in this fall.
Inside Weddings included several Bella Figura invitations for their Fall 2012 issue as well — Kelle Anne McCarter’s Canto design, Lindsy Aragona’s Overlook design and a customization of Jamie Lea Bertsch’s Cecilia all shared the spotlight.
Town & Country Weddings put together a fabulous round-up of inspiration for a New York City wedding, and included a gorgeous customization of our Charmed New York invitation design as part of the feature.
Pacific Weddings magazine included Ian Koenig’s Dash design and Jamie Lea Bertsch’s Indie Twill design in their gorgeous, equestrian-inspired reception set-up. Bonus: they’ve got even more photos from this amazing shoot on their website!
Brides magazine featured Bella Figura in both their October and their November issues! In October, letterpress place cards featuring our Rosemary design were included as part of a Tuscan Garden inspiration palette. The November issue featured several Bella Figura designs — our Bejeweled design fit in perfectly with a “Roaring Twenties” inspiration page (which is overflowing with glamorous, Gatsby-esque touches) and three of our foil stamped invitations (Dada by Jamie Lea Bertsch; Glamorous Blooms and Fugue by Kamal) were included in an “All that Glitters” feature.

We were thrilled when Lisa from Happily Ever After Weddings and Pam Cooley asked us to be a part of “Bride Inspired” — a series featuring gorgeous decor, stunning dresses, delicate florals and letterpress wedding invitations from yours truly! Each shoot featured a different wedding style. Ready to be inspired?
Romantic Vintage: Our Claddagh design paired perfectly with the romantic florals, dainty wedding cake and texturized gown used in this shoot.
Modern Glamour: Our Carlyle design was so fitting for this shoot. In a modern twist on the traditional black and white wedding, this shoot featured an edgy black wedding dress and metallic gold accents to heighten the dramatic yet timeless style.
Rustic Elegance: Fresh fruit, muted earthtones, and recycled wood were the ingredients for this beautiful autumn affair. Our Dolce design added a whimsical touch to this rustic setting.

These Unique Minimes (by Gina Dean and Lauren Richel Kelly) letterpress invitations are defined by their chic character. Even though this customization is not wildly different from the sample, we were psyched to see this design maintain its contemporary vibe. We’d like to thank our wonderful friends at Pulp and Ink in Chicago, Illinois for sending us these to print!

Here’s a really cool example of how you can add little touches to invites to make them totally your own. See those happy little birds? They’re not included on the original version of Beth Barr‘s Ornate Flourish invitation design, but this client wanted birds on their invite so we went ahead and added them. With all of our designs being totally customizable, it’s super easy to make additions like this – simply select a motif from our motif gallery. Bottom line, if you have something unique in mind let us know – we can almost certainly find a way to make it happen. Much love to our friends at Francis-Orr for sending this our way.

We fell in love the moment we saw this Gracelyn Vintage (by Jessica Tierney) letterpress wedding invitation suite come off press. Our friends at The Dandelion Patch in National Harbor, Maryland sent this in.
