Double-sided bilingual wedding invitations

We worked with Debbie at RSVP Today to create Georgia and Matthew’s double-sided bilingual wedding invitations for their summer wedding in Crete. The couple chose our ultra-thick 3-ply paper for their double-sided invitations, which featured an elegant monogram flanked by our balsam wreath cartouche. Our exclusive Plaza calligraphy font was used on the English side of the invitations, as well as the monogram and the welcome, reply, and rehearsal dinner cards. Both sides of the invitations featured copper shine foil and sage green letterpress ink; the English side showcased the text in foil while the Greek side featured letterpress, and the design elements were printed in the opposite color for a mirrored effect.

Parisian Bat Mitzvah Invitations

Our Dawson design received a pretty Parisian makeover for these feminine Bat Mitzvah invitations! The design was customized for Emily’s celebration with a pretty color palette of whisper and pewter inks, paired with a pop of fuchsia shine foil. French bistro inspired stripes and a simple pewter envelope liner in our Champlain pattern added to the beauty of this invitation set.

Bat Mitzvah Letterpress Invitations inspired by our Dawson design

We had the joy of printing these GORGEOUS letterpress Bat Mitzvah invitations for our wonderful friends at PS Paper in San Anselmo, California.  We don’t think this suite could really be any sweeter, the submitted hand calligraphy used for the Sydney’s name adds a nice whimsical touch and the soft color palette keeps this set appropriate for a young girl’s important celebration.  The frame on the invitation is inspired by our Dawson design – and helps maintain the contemporary vibe.
