Borgias 15th Century Inspired Invitation Suite

15th Century Inspired Custom Invitation

Red Velvet Boxed Invitations

This is the PERFECT fall wedding invitation! I LOVE deep, luxurious red and these are sure to stand out of the crowd of wedding invites. These gorgeous cushioned velvet pocket invitations were created with a 15th century inspiration. The bride is having a magnificent renaissance themed wedding, and I believe these invitations (and the fabulous save-the-dates: see below) will be sure to get guests amped-up for the festivities.

Red Velvet Cushioned Pocket Invitations

We created a cushioned red velvet base and layered on metallic gold cardstock finished with matching red velvet gold-foil stamped paper. By the way, velvet paper is by far one of THE coolest, most dramatic mediums on which to print your invitations. You can order yours here!

Embellished 15th Century Inspired Velvet Invitations

The invitations were wrapped with gorgeous gold satin cording and finished with an intricate gold cross and photo frame with a photo of the couple (aawwww... aren't they beautiful? :)

These pieces were attached to the cording with red wax, and were, by the way, custom manufactured overseas with a week-long deadline. Eeesh... the incredible lengths we go to make the dream come alive :)

Borgias Inspired Wedding Invitations

The enclosures fit in a pocket on the back side of the invitation. Again, they were printed on that fabulous red velvet paper in gold foil.

Renaissance Wedding Invitations

The whole shebang was wrapped in parchment colored tissue sealed with a deep red wax seal and enclosed in custom-made gold mailer boxes (that matched the gold paper used on the invitations, natch ;)

And although I did a quick collage of the Save The Dates a while back, I thought I'd show a few photos of that masterpiece as well....

Gothic Wedding Save The Date Card

These were so fun to create! We used graphic elements that came from an actual 15th century book, and period wood carvings to create this authentic period-inspired Save The Date. The envelope liner came from a wood carving of an ancient wedding ceremony... too perfect!!

Gold and Red Renaissance inspired Save The Dates

The ensemble was letterpressed in antique gold and deep red on thick natural white cotton stock.

The suite was mailed in an antique gold envelope sealed with a custom red wax seal.

Um, yeah. I gotta say, I LOVE!!

Where the Magic Begins

Custom Folio Invitation

Custom Embroidered Microsuede Folio Invitation

We recently had the pleasure of working with event planner extraordinaire Margaret Short, of Margaret Events in Naples, Florida. She is not only fabulously friendly, she is a quintessential professional and the best of the best when it comes to event planning. She came to us with an idea for an embroidered silk folio invitation for the Vintner Dinner at the Naples Winter Wine Festival. We ultimately turned out this luxurious aubergine microsuede folio invitation.

Embroidered Folio Invitation

After learning about the Naples Winter Wine Festival, and the theme of "Believe in the Magic", I thought silk simply won't do... we need something stronger, something with a little more presence and power. My vision was instantly microsuede, and I am so glad she saw my vision because these custom folios turned out exquisitely.

Custom Microsuede Folio Invitation

The invitation packed just enough punch with gold foil text and simple gold satin corner pockets, while the enclosure included a trademark graphic from the event.

And in what has become our signature mailing presentation, we wrapped these white gloss mailer boxes in gold satin ribbon and finished them with a perfectly layered address seal. Love!

Embossed Pocketfold Invitation

Embossed Pink and White Pocketfold Invitation

I think I have pink on the brain. Our company is remodeling... new staff, a new look, a new line of invitations (all to be launched in November... yay!!). And pink plays a big part in our revamp, so what better way to kick it off than by showing these delightful Hot Pink and White embossed pocketfold invitations we did for a lovely Aussie lass, married in Queensland this summer? No better way, I tell you! :)

Embossed Pink and White Pocketfold Invitation

The design was inspired by a white on white embossed pocketfold invitation we had done as a tester for retail marketing, and our client loved the look... but needed a little extra punch to make it really hers. Not hard to do with her fabulous color scheme.

Hot Pink and White Pocketfold Invitation

The exterior of an otherwise ho-hum white pocketfold was hand-embossed with a swirly print using a custom-mixed pearlescent Azalea raised ink.

Embossed Pink and White Pocketfold Invitation

The pocket was sealed with a three layer monogram seal composed of pearlescent white stock, Azalea pearlescent stock and a matte white text layer. Not to leave any detail unaccounted for, velcro was used to ensure no tearing when the pocket was opened. Love that ;)

During the proofing phase, we created a couple options for layering.

Pink, White, Silver Pocketfold Invitation

Pink and White Swirl Pocketfold Invitation

Given the option of Silver, Azalea, or Pearlescent White for layering, she ultimately choose to keep the whole thing streamlined, using just the Azalea as the punch color.

Hot Pink and White Swirl Invitation

All the little details make this invitation truly special. The custom printed Azalea swirl accent paper, the adorable swirly print on the response envelope, the personalized response cards... A picture perfect suite for a picture perfect day!
