Oh So Beautiful Paper

Bride and groom Anjali and Suchit wanted invitations that were both elegant and modern to complement their Hindu wedding.  Designer Rashi Birla created a wedding invitation suite that combines gold foil and deep royal purple letterpress elements, along with an airy botanical pattern and classic type throughout the suite.  Gorgeous!

From Rashi: Anjali and Suchit have a keen eye for design and wanted to take a modern approach to their Hindu wedding. Anjali loves letterpress and there was no question that I was going to design the invitation with letterpress printing in mind. We wanted the invitation to feel airy and simple, but with Indian touches. I created an organic pattern that was used throughout the suite.

The invitation text was set to look elegant and regal. We decided to use gold foil and purple letterpress for the two main cards. The deep purple envelopes were also stamped in gold foil.

To save costs, we printed the reception, Sangeet, and ceremony RSVP cards digitally in purple and yellow (a ‘Sangeet’ is an Indian tradition and a big pre-wedding party that happens the night before a wedding). A gold folder with gold cord and contrasting green ribbon completed the look.

Thanks Rashi!

   Just beautiful! I love the whimsical flourish pattern. And the gold on deep purple is divine.
