Aquarium Inspired Letterpress Wedding Invitation Suite

We created a full suite for Michael and Craig’s October wedding at the New England Aquarium using different motifs from our custom library. Their custom invitations paired our pewter and ocean inks together on white bamboo paper, with our coral motif and Harrison calligraphy font adding special touches. The other cards in the suite included our sea turtle, fish, and penguin motifs, which gave subtle nods to the venue.

Silver letterpress wedding invitations

We customized our Tallmossen design in a pretty color palette of silver and butter inks for Allison and John’s May wedding in Georgia last year. Their letterpress wedding invitations featured our Harrison calligraphy font and a playful patterned backing, while the envelope liners and edge painting added a bright pop of yellow to the set.
