Navy + Gold Foil Calligraphy Invites

I just came across this absolutely beautiful invitation suite from Plurabelle and it makes me want to do my wedding invites all over again.  I am a freak for a good font and while I could do without the kiss on the last one, I think these pieces are are just divine.  You can follow her blog here: http://www.plurabellecalligraphy.com/blog/archives/1218.

 

Wedding Rehearsal Dinner Invite - Aquarium

We are just back from my husband's cousin's wedding in North Carolina.  It was a lovely weekend wedding with quite a few festivities leading up to the big event.  One of the events was the rehearsal dinner and I was honored that they asked me to design the invitation.  The evening was just wonderful and was held at the beautiful North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores.  Congratulations to Stephen and Katie!

Congratulations to Sharyn & Jonathan who were married this past weekend!  It was a pleasure to do your wedding invitations!

My Wedding Invite - The Finished Product

I realized I never show pictures of a project when I'm finished with it.  Force of habit from years of producing events, when your done you pack up and move on! Below are the final steps of my invite suite once the pieces returned from the printers.

The finished letterpress pieces printed by Dusty at Publicide NYC

I lined each envelope with a different patterned liner that I created and Dusty printed.

They reply card envelope lined with the zig zag pattern 

fashioned after Rubie Green's East Village Fabric.

Thank you card with envelope lined with the peony pattern.

It seems like I punched hundreds of holes to tie the completed project together

The finished invite suite all together!

Envelopes back from the calligrapher!
