watercolor Bat Mitzvah invitations

Our friends at PS Invitations helped Julie and her family customize these watercolor Bat Mitzvah invitations for her recent celebration. They chose our Modern Nautical design as inspiration, and asked us to alter the hue of the custom watercolor for a softer, more subtle background. We printed a blind impression over the white text for impact and brought in our calypso letterpress ink on additional pieces.

We were honored to work with Peta Murgatroyd and Maksim Chmerkovskiy to create these luxe custom wedding invitations for their July celebration at Oheka Castle. The Dancing with the Stars duo let their elegant venue inspire their invitations, which featured our Charleston die-cut shape and blind debossed damask patterning. Peta and Maks chose a romantic script font for their text, which we printed in gold matte foil on our ultra thick 2-ply ivory cotton paper. We printed reply cards, Shabbat Dinner cards, and a farewell pool party invitation on our 1-ply ivory cotton paper to round out the suite. Many thanks to Maks and Peta for choosing us to help set the tone for their beautiful big day – it was an honor to be a part of this star-studded wedding!

Five ways to customize our Jorie floral wedding invitations

Along with all of our 325+ designs, Jorie can be customized to create floral wedding invitations for any style event. Here are a few ways our couples have made this design their own:

Diana and Simon chose our ivory cotton paper to soften their palette of rose gold foil and taupe. Sarah Hanna’s hand calligraphy added an elegant formality to important text on the invitation and additional suite pieces.

Lauren and Daniel opted for a more modern presentation by using the floral artwork as a border printed in pale gray. Copper shine foil and Debi Zeinert’s hand calligraphy gave the design a contemporary yet still classic feel.

Meaghan and Peter chose a modern layout with the floral artwork printed in inkless blind deboss and the text in rose gold foil. Vine ink was used on the accessory pieces and tied in the custom envelope liner that incorporated more of the Jorie florals.

Tiffany and Andrew also printed the floral artwork in inkless blind deboss but used it to frame their text that was printed in gold matte. They used one of our vintage print floral liners to add romance and color to the otherwise neutral invitation.

Anna and Jason kept the layout the same but chose a palette of pewter and dusty pink that complemented the simple hand drawn look of the floral artwork.  They carried their palette throughout the suite that included an accommodations card, thank you cards and menu.

Thanks to our friends at RSVP Today, Paper Place, Pulp and Ink, Village Invites and Invitations & Company for helping these couples customize our Jorie design for their weddings!
