so we all know about the traditional wedding invitation...cream stock featuring engraved text with a black script. and while that is lovely and elegant, the infusion of color can really make a traditional-minded invite come alive. take this invitation we did for kristen and james' june wedding - it's classic in that it's simple text in script and block letters with a tiny iris motif at the top - inner and outer envelopes (oh the drama of two envelopes! love it.), reply card with an envelope. pretty customary, right?
but then - we used an eggplant ink printed in thermography for the invitation and mounted it on a rich yellow cardstock...lined the inner envelope with a gorgeous yellow canary print...and for an extra dose of the beet color, used a purple reply envelope. the result is a bold, resplendent invitation that just screams FUN.
here are a few pictures from their beautiful day!! loving the purple and yellow carried throughout.
what a stunning couple!! congratulations kristen and james!
