50th birthday invitations in vine letterpress ink

50 has never looked so good! We worked with Wynwood Letterpress to create these 50th birthday invitations in vine letterpress. A Blind Deboss woodgrain pattern added to the background of the invitation created rustic texture. The left-justified typography kept everything clean and bold in a modern block font. The suite contained a cohesive accommodations card as well as reply card in vine letterpress ink. The envelopes in jute brought a warm tone to the set with a woodgrain patterned envelope liner to match.

tropical wedding invitations with touches of elegant calligraphy

Amy and Justin’s wedding was held at The Polo Club in Boca Raton; a venue surrounded by a plentiful amount of palm trees making these tropical wedding invitations a perfect fit for their big day. Using our Lani design as inspiration, a repeating palm pattern was printed around the outside of the invitation in blind deboss which made for a subtle yet memorable impact. Sarah Hanna’s Napa calligraphy style was used as an elegant accent to invitation shining beautifully in Tawny Matte foil. The insert cards were kept more simple in classic black letterpress with more calligraphy accents as a complimentary touch to the invitation. A custom foil envelope liner was added to keep guests wanting more the moment they opened their envelope, preparing them for a tropical affair to come.
