Festive letterpress holiday cards with a traditional touch

Nothing says it’s the holidays again quite like seeing a big evergreen sitting atop of cars zooming down the road. These festive letterpress holiday cards are a perfect fit for a more traditional greeting. The Lucas family chose to print our seasonal Wagon design in Coral and Olive letterpress colors, inks that compliment each other beautifully, especially during this time of year. To top it off, a photo featuring nothing but big smiles beaming back at their friends and family made for a cheerful finishing touch.

These letterpress rehearsal dinner invitations from Stationer on Sunrise are so simple and sweet. We created several inserts for this set — including invitations for the welcome party, rehearsal dinner, and brunch — which were all tucked inside of the cutest monogrammed invitation sleeve. Coral and ocean edge-painting added an extra pop of color and a pretty finishing touch.

Katie & Jack’s Sophisticated City Wedding

We were so thrilled when Lily Kesselman (the amazing photographer behind this next real wedding) shared her images of Katie & Jack’s gorgeous New York wedding. Katie worked with our friends at Judy Paulen Designs for their elegant Haddington wedding invitations, which were printed in midnight ink on our white bamboo paper.  This wedding is overflowing with preppy sophistication and we can’t get enough of it!

Katie and Jack were married at the Convent of The Sacred Heart on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. After the ceremony, the couple rode to their reception in style in an iconic vintage taxi, while the guests and bridal party headed to the reception on chartered Greyline double-decker buses – complete with champagne and a tour of the city!

Congratulations to Katie & Jack, and thanks again to Lily for sharing these beautiful photos! Be sure to visit her blog to see more photos from their big day: part 1 | part 2.
