Musical Instrument-Inspired Letterpress Wedding Invitations

October 29, 2013

I always look forward to seeing new projects in El Calitopo’s stream, and these amazing letterpress rosette wedding invitations caught my eye immediately. Completely crushable, no?

The beautiful, ornate design was inspired by the geometric shapes and lovely curves of musical couple Clara & Daniel’s instruments, specifically a rosette detail that features an intricate, knotted design which translated perfectly into a unique, revolving circle invitation that holds the rosette front, the wedding invitation, and an information card. Coordinating table numbers and cards with the names of the musical selections that were played during the ceremony were also created as a part of this unique and lovely suite.

Mila + William’s Ornate Wedding Program Fans

July 23, 2012

Today’s crush is not only incredibly beautiful, but it’s quite unique, as well. These gorgeous, Victorian-inspired, die-cut letterpress wedding programs were designed by Chauhie for Mila and William’s mid-winder wedding, and these beauties, along with the coordinating wedding invitation suite, would have any Victorian lady flushing with excitement.

Monika from Chauhie has this to say about the crush-worthy project:

Mila and William were both looking for a unique, keepsake program that had a vintage, Victorian feel to it. The fan was divided into 5 panels, each outlining the different elements of the ceremony, and a personal thank you from the couple was featured on the last panel. I had come up with several custom, decorative die-cuts for Mila and William to choose from. In the end, we chose one of the more clean-lined options. The design blended both beautifully with the shape of the fan, as well as the wedding invitation suite itself. After creating the special die-cut, the fan was letterpress printed on Cranes 100% cotton paper and hand assembled.
