Feminine Gold Foil Blush and Seed Paper
Alexis & Michael | 7/15/2017
This summer we had the pleasure of working with Alexis & Michael on a truly gorgeous wedding invitation suite. With two beautiful Chicago venus as a backdrop, we kept the invitations simple and feminine with clean type and calligraphy.
The invitation itself featured gray letterpress and champagne foil on our 2-ply cotton paper, we even gilded the edges in foil to match! We added illustrations of the venues to the details card and (quite literally) tied it all together with a gray silk ribbon. The envelope liner for the invitation utilized the same seed paper from the Save the Date. How fun to get this guy delivered in the mail!
For the day of the wedding, we used the script from the wedding invitation to create champagne foil menus and hand lettered table numbers on seed paper. The blush paper from the RSVP cards made another appearance as an escort card. We also had some more fun with illustrations on the bar menu and program fans. The bar menu featured 3 drinks inspired by Alexis and Michael's grandparents, such a sweet tribute!
Alexis was kind enough to give us her thoughts around the wedding and paper process below. Thanks so much Alexis!
