Letterpress Matchbook Invitations for a Summer Wedding

Orange White Letterpress Wedding Invitations

Last month, Martha Stewart Weddings held a giveaway for a custom letterpress wedding invitation suite by the amazing Studio on Fire, and the lucky winners were Juan and Irma, whose Night of San Juan wedding inspired this wonderfully unique matchbook invitation suite.

The Night of San Juan is a Spanish festival which coincides with the summer solstice and is celebrated with beach parties and bonfires, and the orange and white palette – pre-determinded as a part of the giveaway and inspired by the colors of the Martha Stewart Weddings Winter 2011 issue – was a perfect match (no pun intended) for Juan and Irma’s festive Madrid fete.

Letterpress Matchbook Wedding Invitations

I love the letterpress printed sun, moon, and star details that carry throughout the pieces in the suite and symbolize the arrival of the summer solstice, and the presentation of the event details in matchbook style is so charming and fun for this festive, informal celebration.

Black + Teal Blue Damask Wedding Invitations

Black and Teal Letterpress Damask Wedding Invitations

These damask letterpress wedding invitations by Dingbat Press for Jessica and Erik’s San Juan wedding are absolutely stunning. This suite has such an elegant, Old World feel, and I love the black and teal blue palette and the way that the damask pattern is used throughout the suite as a background (love the soft teal pattern on the main invitation card), a design element, and an emblem. The invitations also feature coordinating teal edge painting, an extra special touch for these ultra upscale invitations.
