Pixel Heart Letterpress Wedding Invitations

April 17, 2012

I was browsing around Constellation & Co.’s lovely custom wedding invitation portfolio recently (talk about some crush-worthy invites!) when I spotted these super sweet “Citrus” invites, designed by Sarah Paulhus and letterpress printed by Constellation & Co. for Ashley & John’s May wedding. The jewel-toned, citrus-y color palette; the overprinted, pixel-style heart graphic; the stylin’ typography – what’s not to love?

The Maggie Collection by Weswen Design

April 16, 2012

Wendy Wade of Weswen Design loves designing custom invitations for weddings and occasions. But when she started to notice more couples coming to her with smaller stationery budgets and/or timelines that just weren’t a good fit for custom design projects, she started to think about what she, as an invitation designer, could do to make her work accessible to these clients.

In an effort to be able to provide budget and time-minded couples with great wedding invitations, Wendy created the Maggie Collection, which features nine modern invitation designs that will appeal to couples across the style spectrum. Couples can choose the design that works best for them and coordinate it with their colors based on a color palette that compliments the Maggie Collection perfectly. Invitations and coordinating pieces are printed on 130lb. ultra-smooth, uncoated card stock, so they look great and feel great, too!

Unique Coaster Wedding Invitations

April 10, 2012

It was crush at first sight when I spotted this unique coaster wedding suite over on Design Work Life last week. The suite, designed by Ross Clodfelter for Brittany Brown & William Goncharow’s big day, was letterpressed (by Device Printshop) and hand stamped onto drinking coasters for a look that’s mid-century modern meets romantic floral and so very chic. The hand stamped elements on the save the date and invitation envelopes only add to the visual appeal of this stunning suite.

Kristen + Loren’s Infographic Wedding Invitations

March 27, 2012

Oh, my. Who knew that infographics could be so romantic? Loren Klein, designer and groom, certainly did. He incorporated charts, graphs, and venn diagrams into his and Kristen’s unique wedding invitation suite to share their story and to invite lucky guests to their wedding celebration.

The teal and red color palette and mid-century style type give this amazing suite a retro modern feel, and I love the deeply colored, overprinted areas in the venn diagram elements, not to mention the custom venn diagram monogram rubber stamp used on the envelopes.

This custom invitation suite was letterpress printed by Rise and Shine Paper. – spotted at FPO

The three color design was perfectly matched to the couple’s wedding colors and features a wonderfully whimsical monogram front and center, along with a lovely, understated polka dot pattern around the framed details. The save the dates were printed onto super luxe, 220 lb. Crane Lettra stock.
