Traditional Wedding Invitations

A classic, traditional wedding invitation in letterpress is always a great choice. Simple writing in script or calligraphy is elegant and timeless, and will still bring a smile to your face when you look at your invitation in its frame in 20, 40 and 60 years. We love an invitation in all script, or the main script embellishment can be saved just for your names, with the rest in a classic text font. What takes these invitations up to a different level is the quality of the printing and the paper. All of these invitations were printed in traditional letterpress printing on an antique press or with hot foil stamping, on thick and beautiful cotton paper. Although the design may be simple, your guests will know it’s still going to be a time to dress up!

If you don’t want your wedding invitations to be too simple, there are many ways to bring a little bling to your classic style. Gold printing with a gold foil stamp is also an elegant touch. Extra flourishes and swirls in the style of hand calligraphy also give your traditional invitations more pizazz. To really take it up a notch, invitation edging in all gold foil on an oversized invitation is the way to really make a statement!

A traditional wedding invitation also signals a certain level of formality to your guests, for weddings that are black tie or formal dress. Added embellishments like an envelope liner, belly band, and hand calligraphy mailing addresses create the whole classic look. Betson , Casinomaxi , Poker Oyna , Youwin , Süperbahis

Victorian Flourish Wedding Invitations

Do you love shimmering satin? Delicate flowers wrapped with silk ribbons? Then your style definitely fits with these Victorian Flourish wedding invitations that are created using a vintage fleuron design. They communicate a sense of timeless elegance, one that transcends across the centuries.

Color Combinations Communicate

The scrollwork can be customized to match your wedding colors or done in the elegance of a metallic silver as shown in this example. The custom metal foil stamping gives the scrolling a greater relief and added richness. The fonts used in your Victorian Flourish wedding invitations can also be customized to further personalize your invitations to match your style down to the tiniest detail. Ink colors and fonts chosen will greatly influence the final flavor.

These Victorian Flourish wedding invitations are printed on a lovely bridal off-white, but your paper color choices are as broad as your ink and font choices. The elegance just takes on a different flavor with changes to light pastels or a classic black background. One creates a high-tea elegance, while another creates the freshness of a Victorian spring garden. With the guidance of a professional designer, you can be assured that all the details of your invitation design will blend together perfectly.

Satiny Smooth or Soft Texture?

The thickness and texture of your invitation paper is also important to the overall impression that is communicated through your wedding invitations. This is another area where our print designer’s experience can provide the direction you need to narrow down your choices to those that are most suited to your overall theme.

A Matched Set

Continuing the theme of your Victorian Flourish wedding invitations through to additional stationery pieces provides continuity and encompasses all the events surrounding the wedding ceremony in the same sense of beauty and romance. A response card is a must for accurate counts for your wedding ceremony and reception, but an events schedule printed on matching letterpress cards can be a memento that is as functional as it is beautiful.

Your wedding is a once in a lifetime event that is celebrated with your closest family and friends. It is the day when two lives merge into one. Weddings are the one event in our society that guests take note of the details and remember them long into the future. Every one of those details becomes part of a memory, not just for you, but for them
