Brooks + Erin’s Romantic Sonoma Valley Wedding Invitations

07/16/2012

These beautiful Sonoma Valley wedding invitations from Molly at Paisley Quill are so chic and romantic!  Molly wanted to reflect the vineyard location in a unique way, so she incorporated a cork veneer tag and yellow baker’s twine as a belly band for the invitation suite.  Love it!

From Molly:  Erin wanted wedding invitations that, in her words, were “soft, romantic, unique, yet effortlessly chic.”  The wedding took place at the BR Cohn Winery in Sonoma Valley; we really wanted to play up the wine country theme, but not with a traditional grapevine motif.  That is when I stumbled on cork skin, a thin veneer of cork that is backed with paper to hold its integrity.  Cork.  Wine country.  PERFECT.

Erin opted for two-color letterpress in sunny yellow and a subdued gray.  Envelope liners, a custom map, an itinerary booklet, and a die cut cork tag all held together with yellow baker’s twine completed the look.

To add even more detail to the suite, we went with hand picked vintage stamps from Holly at the Paper Nickel and beautiful calligraphy from Nicole at The Left Handed Calligrapher.  Nicole custom matched the calligraphy ink to the yellow in the invitations.  We also had a custom address stamp made to save a little money on the response envelopes
