Whimsical Monogram Save the Dates

March 26, 2012

Today’s crush comes to us from Cotton Paperie, who created these beautiful letterpress save the dates for Nick and Rebecca’s September wedding. 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.

Sweet Woodgrain Wedding Invitations

October 26, 2011

I am crushing all over these oh so sweet charcoal gray and bright green wedding invitations, designed by Fine Day Press for their dear friends, Katherine and Robert. The design was inspired by the couple’s love of hiking – in fact, Robert proposed to Katherine while they were on a hike – and features many lovely little details, including a woodgrain pattern with the couple’s first initials “carved” into it, a custom return address stamp (ooh!), and pops of bright green in the form of twine and washi tape.

Rustic Elegant Wedding Invitations

July 12, 2011

I’m completely crushing on this swoon-worthy custom wedding invitation suite that Jennifer Lane designed for Rachael and Anthony’s May wedding. The couple wanted their wedding invitations to have a warm and homey feel, and Jennifer included amazing handmade details, like muslin bags custom stamped with the couple’s name and wedding date and amazing stitched canvas mongram inserts, along with elegant swash graphics and typography, to create a perfect blend of rustic and elegant.

Be sure to head over to Jennifer Lane’s site to see so much more from this beautiful wedding. – found via @twigandthistle

Postmark Monogram Letterpress Invitations

June 01, 2011

Gosh, these invitations are beautiful. The lovely letterpress wedding suite was designed by the always incredible Bespoke Press and was inspired by the couple’s worldly background. Penny is from Australia, Gerald is from Brussels, and the couple have worked in Africa, Pakistan and, currently, Israel.

Bespoke Press excels at creating designs that are ultra elegant in their simplicity, and for this suite they took inspiration from old passports and stamps from around the world to design pieces that are unique and so incredibly chic.

A postage-style monogram takes center stage and featured throughout the suite, complimented by loose, typewriter-style typography. The main card was letterpress printed in vintage brown ink on ivory cotton paper, and the postmark monogram was blind debossed on the additional pieces in the suite for a wonderfully tactile feel.

The pieces in the suite were tied together with sweet baker’s twine, and a letterpress printed, luggage style tag finished the package, which was tucked inside a luxe cotton envelope that featured vintage world map liners. Wow!
