Quatrefoil Pattern Letterpress Wedding Invitations

Quatrefoil Invitations in Yellow and Gray

These custom wedding invitations feature an elegant quatrefoil pattern, in a beautiful combination of gray, yellow, and white. Created here in our Washington DC studio, these letterpress invitations also highlight the couple’s custom monogram made from the same quatrefoil motif. A great look for a romantic wedding with modern sensibilities.

Blind Debossing and Yellow Edge Painting

The main print feature is the “blind” debossed pattern, where the design is letterpressed without ink. This creates a striking look and texture with the deep pressing in thick cotton 220lb letterpress paper. The same effect also creates a unique textured background pattern on the reception card. The whole look is accented by a yellow painted edge on the invitations, and yellow patterned envelope liner.

Creating a Custom Wedding Invitation

Here at Digby & Rose we worked directly with the bride on these invitations to come up with something unique to the couple, and create something special to their event. We can work with you on any style be it very traditional or very modern! Contact us today to discuss your own custom project!

Not So Traditional Beach Theme Wedding Invitations

Beach Theme Invitation

What do you do when it’s time for invitations for your beach wedding, but you don’t want it to be too “beachy”? We decided to focus on the flow of the water and waves and an elegant letterpress presentation to give the right feel for Lisa & Bryant’s wedding on Cape Cod. It also had to match the “Tie Optional” vibe, so it definitely called for some bubbles and waves to give it some fun! The groom’s parents live here in Washington, DC so we enjoyed working with them in person to come up with a set of pieces that would get everyone excited about the big event.

Time for a Pocketfold

This wedding had many details to include, from the information on accommodations that needed to be booked well in advance, to a rehearsal dinner clambake, to a day-after brunch. The perfect time for a pocketfold to hold everything together! This pocketfold was done in pearlescent silvery paper, closed with a belly band with the couple’s new monogram letterpressed in silver. All wrapped up in an organized package to help everyone plan.

This design is also available as a digital print through our Zazzle store.

Stop Motion From Our Studio

We’ve been playing around with stop motion photography in our studio and came up with a few videos. Here’s one just for this invitation set. Watch for the jumping fish.
