A Midsummer Night’s Dream Inspired Wedding Invitation
Everything about this wedding invitation suite, created by our dear friend Kayla at Papermade Studio, is gorgeous and unique. Caitlin and Matthew’s San Diego wedding is full of lovely details, from a custom pocketfold, velvet paper, a unique die-cut, and so much more!
The bride explains, “We will be getting married in Rancho Santa Fe, San Diego, on the Summer Solstice. Our wedding celebration will be tailored after Shakespeare’s play A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The design incorporates celestial and fantastical elements to represent the day.”

The darling brunch card features star artwork in gold matte foil that also appears on the invitation and pocketfold. The text stands out in midnight shine foil, while an oval die-cut shape is both on-trend and elegant.
Perhaps the standout piece in this entire suite is the quote insert card. Our 3-ply smooth cotton paper in bright white is die-cut into the shape of a Grecian bust. Blind deboss adds detail to the bust, while the line from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, spoken by Helena, ‘love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,’ is foil-stamped in plum shine. The reverse side of the card features a bold stripe pattern.
