Filigree Letterpress Invitations

Lindsay and Blake were married in May and celebrated their reception at the beautiful Rumson Country Club. Their wedding invitation design was inspired by vintage filigree designs. The neutral color palette combined with the vintage art elements made for a fresh, classic and romantic look. We continued their look for wedding programs and menus, pictured above. The menu art was revisited from their save the date design.

Key West Wedding at Truman Little White House

Mandy and Ed first came to us for Save the Dates for their Key West wedding. For their wedding invitation, they wanted an informational booklet for their guests to be able to use while visiting the island. First we created a watercolor painting of their venue, Truman Little White House, and used it as the cover of their destination wedding invitation.

Included in the book were a letter to their guests, accommodations information, and a custom map corresponding with the following page of "phony ads"for real places they enjoy on the island and other useful information.

RSVP postcards used a digital illustration of the Conch Repulic flag.

We also created an original monogram for their wedding brand, which was used in 

the booklet and later on cocktail napkins, coasters, stickers and favor tote bags. 

They loved their monogram so much they had a custom flag made!!

The Truman Little White House painting was used for ceremony programs 

and we loved their idea of using colorful fish on their seating cards.

Tara & Nikki's Classic Asbury Park Designs

As their six month anniversary approaches, we thought we would share these designs we created for Tara and Nikki's September wedding. We printed their wedding ceremony programs on small bags that were then filled with confetti. The brown bags were filled with goodies for hotel guests staying overnight. Personalized cocktail napkins with the famous "Tillie" the lettering from the classic  "Greetings from Asbury Park" postcard were a nice touch.

Caitlin and Dan's Formal Engraved Black, White and Silver Wedding invitations

We are about a year late showing off this graphic black, white and silver wedding invitation set. Caitlin and Dan were married in Manhattan last September. We used silver engraving, black and white metallic stocks, and custom stamps to create a formal, glitzy feel. An original illustration of the New York City skyline was used for the RSVP card and then again in reverse for custom stamps. We also created a drawing of their church for ceremony programs and combined graphic black and white stripes and a soft pink watercolor splash for their double-sided wedding menus.

Handlettered Letterpress Simplicity

It is always exciting to get an opportunity to have our original art and hand lettering letterpressed. Our friend Victoria of Milkfed Press printed these lovely invitations for Kate and Andrew's wedding. The suite was printed on Arturo cotton stock and featured a vintage hydrangea engraving. We worked backwards, creating the KA monogram first for their save the date, then later designed the rest of the letters to complete their names. Later on, the mother of the bride returned to commission a "C" to complete Kate & Andrew's married monogram. It is shown above along with the two letter monogram, which was embroidered by the bride's aunt and used as a bouquet wrap.
