For Lauren and Dane’s Bronx Zoo wedding invitations we customized calligrapher Elizabeth Hardin’s Amons design to reflect the unique vibe of their venue. Their palette of cobblestone and deep blue carried through to their additional suite pieces and their playful, hand-illustrated envelope liner borrowed from our Mannon design.

For their recent East Hampton wedding, Claire and Justin worked with our friends at LS Amster to customize our Ophelia design to reflect their seaside venue and intimate celebration.

Both lent a warm and laid back feel to their suite.

Our friends at Written and Wrapped helped Hannah and her family customize our Harvest design for her spring Bat Mitzvah celebration. Their sweet and ladylike take on the design feels young and fresh and very different from the rustic elegance of the original. They played up their pastel palette of gray and pink throughout the suite, from the polka dot envelope liner to the subtle hint of pink edging the invitation.

Just in time for the upcoming summer holiday, we’re introducing you to Racheal Bumbolo‘s latest design, Arundel. “My main source of inspiration came from the Maine coast,” says Racheal. “My family has vacationed near Arundel for the past few summers and I love everything – the shops and small towns and of course the beaches, wharfs, ports, and hiking trails. For this design I imagined a sophisticated coastal soirée in shades of blue and neutral sandy colors reminiscent of the beach. Keeping the typography simple and minimal adds flexibility for this design to fit any venue or occasion.”

“My main source of inspiration for this customization of Culver was the venue itself and the surrounding arts district of Los Angeles. Cool vibes, art, creativity and innovation abound,” says designer Racheal Bumbolo. “A clean slate along with minimalist font treatment sent this one home for me. I feel most comfortable with designs like this; there is just something about quintessential, modern design that puts me in the zone!”

Designer Sierra Detrick is no stranger to worldly inspiration. “Growing up, I based many of my projects in school and in personal pieces around multi-cultural arts,” she says. “The diverse creativity of the world still heavily influences me today.”
She found inspiration for her Morocco design in the vibrant hues and intricate details seen often in Moroccan design. “I was really taken with modernized versions of the Moroccan-style tiling I was seeing in home design,” says Sierra. “I decided to create my own tile pattern that could be used throughout a wedding invitation suite and paired it with a very simplistic but elegant body of text. I didn’t want the copy to compete too much with this vibrant pattern, but I still wanted it to be able to stand on it’s own. Ted Clausen’s ornate hand calligraphy added just the right amount of sophistication.”
