Laura + Giuseppe’s Laser Cut “Chalkboard” Wedding Invitations

August 20, 2012

Today’s invitation crush comes to us from Silvia Lana of Iciban, a Verona, Italy-based wedding and party design studio. Silvia created these clever, keepsake wedding invitations using a chalkboard style graphic printed onto a birch wood tablet, and the trompe l’oeil effect of the graphic gives the invitation the appearance of an actual chalkboard. Pretty cool, right? In addition, the couple’s wedding date was laser cut into the birch wood, giving this keepsake piece additional texture and visual interest.

The illustration of happy couple riding on a scooter, which appears on a number of pieces in the suite, was created by the sister of the bride and adds an element of carefree playfulness. Coordinating tags and belly bands were printed on Fedrigoni Constellation Snow stock, which adds another layer of texture to this unique wedding suite.

There’s something in the air, and I think it’s chalk dust. Designers and stylists like Dana Tanamachi and Shana Faust have used the nostalgic medium to create amazing work and to help make chalkboards one of the top wedding trends of the day. And invitation designers, inspired by the possibilities, are creating beautiful wedding invites that evoke school days and sweet, simple times.
