Usually consist of a single or double sided flat card, and
either mailed in an envelope or as a postcard.
Sometimes we will make these look like the rest of your
paper suite (as shown) and other times a photo or something
a little more “fun” will be used if the invitation is very
formal.
Wedding Invitations
Mailed 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding
& no earlier than 10.
At minimum, includes an invitation and response
card with an outer envelope & a response envelope.
Sometimes the response card is done as a postcard.
Invitations could also include extra cards that share
hotel information, directions, a website card, weekend
itineraries, map designs, etc.

Inner & outer envelopes are not used as often
nowadays but are certainly still an option. Calligraphy
is also available for guest addressing, as are printed
addresses in a calligraphy style font.
We look forward to celebrating with you.

a word on colors
Use this color chart to let us know what ink(s) you would
like to use for your printed pieces.
Do keep in mind that colors appear differently on each computer
monitor, phone screen, etc. If you have a specific color you want
to match, feel free to share a swatch with us in person or via snail
mail so we can be sure that the in person products are as close as
possible. We would highly suggest requesting or purchasing a
letterpress proof if the precise color is a concern.
OR, if you have access to a PMS color chart, feel free to let
us know a specific color number and we will proceed with
that color {letterpress only}.
