Can we have a drum roll please? Why, you ask? Because we are over the moon excited for the launch of foil stamping at Smock! These custom letterpress invitations feature silver matte foil for the bride and groom’s name, adding just a touch of shimmer to this traditional wedding set. Foil stamping allows us to incorporate the very look of metallics onto custom printing. So now there is truly a way to make your own wedding invitations outshine the rest. Classic black paired with silver matte foil looks impeccable and clean cut on these. We’d like to thank our friends at The Write Image in Rockville, Maryland for sending us this amazing suite.

Summer vacation is quickly approaching, which means graduation is right around the corner for high school seniors! Congratulate the special grad in your life with a letterpress graduation card from Smock, and make sure they’re ready for the real world with some stylish letterpress notecards, too!
This Burstell customization is truly striking, while nice, crisp lines on the invitation keep the invitation looking minimalistic. This set was submitted to us by our great friend, Jessica at Salutations in Charlotte, North Carolina. The exterior of the pocketfold showcases our grand clairveaux pattern which is letterpressed in our dove ink – making for a subtle, romantic vision. Open the pocketfold to our mondsee pattern which is a bit more modern – but this classic, text based invitation looks absolutely stellar. Our pool ink is a flawless choice- matching back to the couple’s venue at The Cloister at Sea Island. We feel that our pool ink radiates warmth and provides the perfect contrast with our dove ink.

Take a splash into summer with a cool and colorful Helani letterpress wedding suite submitted by our friends at Kate’s Paperie – SoHo in New York City. Our smock spencerian calligraphy font is always a winner and is used for the couple’s name and wedding venue lines – which adds to the whimsical feel. Playful type and our robin’s egg ink really create the excitement for the wedding on the island of Turks + Caicos. What really has us pepped is the sensational wash of robin’s egg on the envelope liner – we can close our eyes and see the sparkling and inviting crystal waters. We think this invitation suite is spot on – and a perfect match to what we expect was a fabulous and unforgettable wedding celebration!

Does it get any cuter than this? Take a look at these absolutely stunning save the dates submitted to us by our wonderful friends at Union Street Papery in San Francisco, California. Hole drilled with beautiful silver grommets attached so as the save the date swivels, you can read up about accommodations for the wedding weekend! Our Robson design looks chic letterpressed in our spring and midnight inks. We know we don’t have to tell you that these days everyone has busy schedules! So this is all the more reason to send save the dates as soon as you’ve set the date! Save the dates are a great way to give your guests advance notice of the wedding date so you can be sure they’ll be in attendance for the big day! We’re over the moon for these because the surprise accommodations card truly allows your guests to begin their own planning. This couple’s wedding is during Memorial Day weekend – which is all the more reason to make sure to catch people before they’ve already made plans of their own!

Amber at Hitched in Washington, DC submitted this lovely Odin wedding invitation suite to us for printing. Letterpress printed in our navy ink and a custom purple ink, the combination of these two cool tones brings a feeling of joy to these modern invitations. This set definitely has it all. Each piece is letterpressed on our luxurious 2-ply bamboo paper and matches perfectly back to the charming and vivid invitation. But we think the focal point of this suite is the letterpressed sleeve in our pastis pattern adding even more flair with the beautifully textured lines. We thought this would be a fun and bubbly set to share with you at the start of the summer wedding season!
