Anne & Jacob's Letterpress Invitations



Hello Friends!

It's been a minute (lol)!!!  Well things are moving and grinding here in our studio. I'm super excited for the National Stationery Show in NYC next week. I'll be attending the show again this year; it should be lots of fun. I can't wait to take a mini-break from the fun/craziness of the studio.

 

I'm excited to share Anne & Jacob's Letterpress invitations with you. We met Anne through a recommendation from Hotel ZaZa. She was pretty sure that she wanted letterpressed invitations with beveled edges. We moved quickly through the design and below are the images of her "swoon-worthy" invitations. Anne & Jacob were married this past February at St Luke's United Methodist Church and Hotel ZaZa in Houston, Texas.

 



The invitations were pressed on Ecru White 4-ply cardstock

We also did Gold Beveled edge on the invitations

The enclosures were pressed on Double thick Ecru White cardstock

Invitation with Gold Envelopes lined with blush pink. Envelopes were hand addressed by Maureen with Pendance.

I hope to blog when I return next week from New York. Enjoy your weekend guys!!!

"Marie Antionette" Themed 50th Birthday

Happy Thursday!!!

I'd wanted to blog these gorgeous invitations for a while now but just been too busy. We created the invitations below for a very fabulous lady. And when I say fabulous, I mean like Sofia Vergera type fabulous. Honestly, this woman looked too good for her age. Okay enough of that (lol). We met Mrs. Rincon through her wedding planner - Alia Rdissi with Belle of the Ball events. It's always fun working with Alia and her clients and this wasn't an exception.

 

She was planning a Marie Antoinette themed 50th Birthday celebration in Aruba. She fell in love with the design below from Paper Nosh. So I contacted Paulette about the artwork and below is the finished product. Some of the invitations were done in Spanish while others in English. We letterpress them, presented each invitation in a silk Box with Lace overlay and completed the look with a Cameo brooch. Love the look of letterpress!!!

 

Letterpressed Invitations

 

The Invitations were presented to each guest in a Luxurious Silk Box

The enclosures were also letterpressed.

The Luxurious Silk Boxes with Lace overlay and Cameo brooches

 

The Silk Boxes were placed in Boxed Mailers and sealed. Ready for mailing.

For the Menu cards, I wanted to create something a different but keeping with the theme. I suggested laser cutting the menu cards (to look similar to the Cameo Brooch). And below is the end result. Aren't these GORG!!!

Alia was kind enough to send a phone photo of the menu cards displayed on the table. Just too gorgeous!!!

Hope you enjoy your weekend!!!

Unique Laser Cut Invitations/Stationery

Hello Friends!

I hope you're having a great week so far!!!

 

So, the laser cut wedding invitations we did for Debbie & Antonio have been getting a lot of buzz. We met Debbie and Antonio through her mom (the MOB), Teresa. Teresa is the owner of Cindy's Palace, a gorgeous event and catering venue located in Richmond, Texas. Debbie has seen the lasercut invitation and fallen in love with it. She didn't want anything else (lol).

 

Because Debbie and Antonio live in Oklahoma, most of the work was done virtually. Without further ado, below are the wedding invitations and day-of stationery we created for their October 2012 wedding. The ceremony took place at the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart while the reception was of course at Cindy's Palace!

 

The Invitation

We also lined the envelopes with the same champagne color as the laser wraps

The ceremony program was done entrely in Spanish since the couple had a full Catholic Mass in Spanish

The menu cards were a single panel flatcard which were tucked nicely into napkins at the reception
