We created matching save the dates and ombré wedding invitations using our Spence design for Kasey and Adam’s Stone Harbor wedding celebration. The entire set was printed with gold matte foil, and the main two pieces included a pretty peach ombré fade. We duplexed the invitations to make them ultra thick, then added corner rounding and gold matte foil edging for a polished finish.

Tracey and Nicholas worked with us to create one of the most beautiful invitation suites we’ve ever printed! For their May wedding in St. Barths, we digitally printed their tri-fold, passport style save the dates in pretty blues and pinks, then added gold shine foil stamping. An intricate custom crest complete with palm trees and their monogram was printed on both their save the dates and their gold wedding invitations, which also featured hand calligraphy. Their tropical invitation set included an events card and a reply card, which fit inside of a vibrant invitation sleeve complete with personal motifs – like the wedding chapel, a bottle of champagne, palm trees, and even the couple’s pup! Custom envelope liners for both the save the dates and the invitations were created to match each piece accordingly.

We created a completely custom letterpress invitation suite for Honor and Jay’s black tie celebration at Winvian Farm earlier this month. The entire suite – which included an invitation and folio, save the date, reply card, website card, rehearsal dinner invitation, brunch card, and a custom map – featured custom, hand-drawn illustrations inspired by Chinoiserie style porcelain. Little nods to the wedding venue were worked into the custom illustrations, which spanned the entire back of the invitation folio and were sprinkled throughout the additional pieces.

A beautiful array of soft blues and greens were featured together on this sea glass inspired version of our Keira invitation. Sarah and Robert chose letterpress printing in azure ink for the main text on their invitations, which added texture to the colorful, digitally printed piece. We duplexed the invitation and added azure edge paint to make the piece more substantial. Reply cards and event cards were printed to match, and a custom watercolor envelope liner added an extra layer of color to this unique invitation set.

Abby and Greg worked with Gus & Ruby Letterpress to customize their petite silver foil wedding invitations. They chose our Chablais design for their New Year’s Eve wedding, opting for a smaller S-6 size invitation and coordinating reply cards. Chablais patterned envelope liners were printed in apricot ink to match the letterpress accents featured on the invitations.

At the 2015 National Stationery Show, we launched a variety of new Everyday products as well as two new custom albums: Smock Wedding Volume 6, and our first-ever Holiday Album. Volume 6 features 12 new wedding designs, complete with invitations, save the dates, and additional suite pieces. We also added foil stamped envelope liners (more to come on those!), plus stylish new patterns and fonts. Both of our new albums will be available to view in person at Smock stores around the country this summer, but here’s a peek at some of our new wedding suites!
Prescott is a nautical letterpress suite with modern charm. We love the additional pieces, too – the envelope liners and save the dates feature a vintage, nautical print while the digitally printed welcome party cards feature a bold shade of blue.
Rose gold shine is the focus of Ellory, a modern design suite with feminine appeal. Digitally printed patterns and cute motifs are featured throughout the additional pieces, such as the save the date, welcome party card, gift tag, and reception card.
Haynes has rustic charm with a touch of elegance. Letterpress printed and foil stamped on our ivory bamboo paper, the suite includes a photo save the date and vintage map patterns.
Foil stamped on our new, 100% recycled gray paper, Greely features tawny matte foil, delicate floral motifs and a modern script font.
Donegal is a formal suite with a hint of European flair. Printed with copper shine foil on our ivory bamboo paper, the design features our Plaza calligraphy font by Sarah Hanna along with vintage print patterns.

We love the cool shades of blue on these custom watercolor wedding invitations. Printed for a wedding celebration in Mexico, the tranquil watercolors were digitally printed on our white bamboo paper and paired with espresso letterpress ink. A champagne metallic envelope added a touch of shimmer to the set, which included two versions of the reply card: one for the main event, and a second version that included reply options for a welcome party, rehearsal dinner, and farewell brunch.

Hillary and Christopher customized our Ashbourne wedding invitation twice for their spring wedding festivities. The first invitation, printed for the wedding ceremony on Cumberland Island in Georgia, featured a subtle pink rose background and tawny matte foil stamping, with a coordinating vintage rose patterned envelope liner. The second invitation, printed for the reception in Florida, showcased custom water lily artwork on the invitation background as well as the liners. The couple chose to keep the rest of the design elements the same, and the end result is stunning.

Kyle and Nicholas customized our Chapman design for their springtime wedding at Current at Chelsea Piers. We printed their taupe and navy letterpress wedding invitations on our white bamboo paper. Sleek fonts, a square shape, and a simple striped envelope liner completed the minimalist, modern look that the couple was going for.
