There are so many different ways you can customize any of our designs from wedding invitations to holiday cards. The options are endless!

New wedding invitations inspired by coastal New England’s most iconic landmarks

We had the pleasure of creating six exclusive suites with our friend Heidi Daniels of Parchment Fine Papers in Nantucket and The Customs House in Wellfleet, Massachusetts – and now we can share them with you!

Chadwick was imagined for a classic black tie wedding at The Wauwinet, a luxury hotel nestled on the shores of Nantucket Island. A timeless palette of black letterpress and gold foil is complemented by a custom, hand-drawn duogram and elegant vintage Nantucket artwork featuring ships and maps to honor the island’s history. Beveled, gold foil edging and a vellum wrap adorn the save the date to set the tone for an elegant celebration.

The Chadwick suite, featuring a vellum wrap, gold foil bevel, and custom duogram.

A bohemian, autumn beach wedding was the inspiration for the Westmoor suite. Floral illustrations of bold bouquets filled with succulents, hellebores, garden roses, anemones, and ranunculus show off a deep jewel toned palette in shades of of plum, cranberry, sage, and copper. An illustration of an iconic Nantucket Lightship basket filled with flowers on the events card is a special nod to Nantucket.

The Westmoor suite, featuring Currant paper and gorgeous watercolor and illustrated florals.

Nantucket Harbor was the main inspiration for the Dockside suite. As you sail into the harbor, you are greeted with a skyline of church steeples and historic sea captain’s homes. A hand-illustrated rendering of the harbor takes center stage on the main invitation while crisp blues and traditional fonts give give this suite a classic, tailored look.

The Dockside suite, featuring Blue and Pastel Blue papers and an illustration of Nantucket Harbor.

The maritime-themed Compass suite was inspired by vintage maps and Nantucket’s famous Gardiner’s Corner mural. In fact, the mural is featured on the envelope liner and the duogram on the invitation and save the date was created from its historic compass motif. The Nantucket Whaling Museum, where we imaged this couple having their reception, inspired the petite whale motif used throughout the suite. Moody blues, representative of the sea, and tawny foil, mimicking the light of the North Star, pair perfectly in this seafarer’s dream suite.

The Compass suite, featuring Blue paper and envelopes, a custom illustrated cartouche and the iconic Gardiner’s Corner sign.

The closing days of summer in Nantucket were the inspiration behind the Lighthouse suite. The colors are a bit cooler and slightly muted making this entire set feel soft and sweet. A hand-painted watercolor map, highlighting iconic landmarks of Nantucket, sets the perfect mood for a local couple’s big day!

The Lighthouse suite, featuring Light Gray envelopes and a variety of watercolor artwork (don’t you love the whale?!)

The Sailor suite was envisioned for a wedding set back on the mainland where sailing is still the heart and soul of the people. Nautical illustrations of sailboats, buoys, lobsters and anchors are playfully used throughout the set. With carolina blue and navy letterpress, along with a fresh modern layout, you can almost feel the wind in your hair.

The Sailor suite, featuring a vellum belly band, more illustrations, and an adorable thank you card (aw, shucks!).

nautical inspired letterpress save the dates

Our friends at Fete Collection helped us to create these nautical inspired letterpress save the dates. A Pale Gray letterpress motif subtly positioned in the background added dimension to a clean layout. Typography printed in Navy letterpress gave a nautical nod to the Massachusetts location. A  letterpress border to match added a simple touch to a sweet save the date. Finally, an anchor on the reverse of the envelope gave guests a glimpse as to what they would find inside.

modern silver foil bar mitzvah invitations for a new york setting

We worked with our friends at Ipanema Press to create these modern silver foil Bar Mitzvah invitations for Jake’s big day. Our No. 10 panel became the canvas for this typography based layout. The Bella Blue backdrop allowed the Silver Shine foil as well as Jake’s name to pop off the page. They kept the reply card clean in Navy letterpress ink with a reply envelope coordinating in Bella Blue. Lastly, the envelope liner captured the New York skyline in a sketchy style to keep the set playful while still sophisticated.

gold matte foil wedding invitations with playful envelope liner

We are always excited to see the Deveril customizations that come through our shop. These gold matte foil wedding invitations kept the understated feeling of the original design. The reply as well as details cards printed in Navy letterpress kept the color palette consistent with the Bella Blue backdrop of the invitation. Christa and Ian chose to add a touch of playfulness to their suite through the envelope liner. They did so by choosing our geometric Ardea pattern printed in Gold Matte foil. Finally, the couple worked with our flagship store in Manhattan who helped bring their invitation vision to life.

classic silver foil wedding invitations

Our Bella Blue paper has never looked better than it does with Silver Shine reflecting brightly off the page. We worked with Papery & Cakery to create these classic silver foil wedding invitations for Andrea and Howard. To set the tone for their big day at The Breakers in Palm Beach, they needed an invitation equally as timeless as their venue. A color scheme of Navy and Silver Shine carried throughout the suite kept everything consistent. Our Lincoln die-cut added a further level of luxury to an already elegant design. We have no doubt this couple’s day was just as beautiful as their invitations.

newbury reimagined: modern rehearsal dinner invitation with rustic flair

This modern rehearsal dinner invitation customization was inspired by our contemporary Newbury design. The Bella Gray paper from the original design was substituted with our Ivory paper to give the invitation more of a vintage vibe. The design itself was inspired by dark jewel tones represented in the Maple Shine foil and Prussian Blue letterpress accents. We imagined pairing this invitation with our elegant garden pattern also printed in the same color palette, all perfect for a moody candlelit affair.
