Refined and Romantic Foil-Stamped Wedding Invitations with Modern Gatefold

Refined and Romantic Foil-Stamped Wedding Invitations with Modern Gatefold

A muted, earthy color palette, paired with foil stamping and botanical details, gives Mary and George’s invitation set a luxurious, organic feel. This couple worked with our dear friend Lindsey from Mrs. Post Fine Stationery & Gifts to customize our Apothic design. While they kept many elements, they did a wonderful job transforming and reimaging the original design to reflect their style.

The invitation feels refined and modern. The grid-style look brings order and structure and feels very composed and intentional, while the serif and script fonts, along with the floral sprig accent in the bottom right corner, give the design a more personal and romantic feel. Our spruce paper is warm and muted, allowing the champagne matte foil to stand out without being flashy.

The Art Deco-inspired envelope liner uses the same foil color and mimics the feel of the invitation’s grid layout. The foil-stamped pattern repeats on the back of the details card, adding continuity to the design. The multi-panel details card is a very functional piece that includes a timeline of events, while the last panel serves as a reply card. The tag adhered to the front of the details card coordinates with the invitation since it features the same paper and floral artwork.

All of the cards fit inside the gatefold wrap. This folder-like piece neatly secures the cards, ensuring an orderly presentation. Metallic gold thread is the finishing touch that holds the gatefold closed.
