Rose Gold Foil Night Sky Wedding Invitations

Happy Monday everyone! It’s always a sign of a good week when we start Monday morning with a gorgeous wedding invitation from Samantha and Whitney of Gus & Ruby Letterpress – especially when that invitation involves laser cut stars and rose gold foil! These rose gold foil night sky wedding invitations were created for a wedding at Camp Waldemar in Texas Hill country. Deep navy blue and rose gold foil is one of my all-time favorite combinations (I think it’s so romantic!), and I’m completely head over heels for the laser cut star details that Samantha and Whitney added to the invitation. So pretty!

From Samantha and Whitney: This custom wedding invitation suite was designed for a sweet couple getting married deep in the heart of Texas. The bride and groom wanted the invitation suite to reflect the camp venue while also paying homage to the big, beautiful Texan sky.

The invitation suite was housed in a full-flood digitally printed folder with an image of the night sky. The folder was foil stamped with a quote about the night sky and tied shut with twine and a Texas-shaped laser-cut wooden hang tag.

We paired whimsical script with a traditional roman font for a mix of romance and fun, while a color palette of navy blue and rose gold set the tone. The type-set invitation was printed on double-thick 100% cotton and features laser cut stars that allow the digitally printed wrap-around folder to peek through.

The reply postcard featured a colorful vintage map of Texas. We also created a 4-panel folded insert card that expanded to give guests lots of details about the wedding weekend.

As always, the pieces were lovingly letterpress printed and foil-stamped by hand on our antique presses on beautiful, textural, super thick 100% cotton paper.

Happy Weekend

It feels strange to be wishing all of you a happy weekend after the tragic events in Nice yesterday. It’s getting harder and harder to find the bright spots between the shadows these days. My heart is with the people of France today. I don’t have many words today – just wishes for more peace and love, less violence and tragedy.

The last two weeks on Oh So Beautiful Paper:

My poor husband came down with a bad cold this week, so we’ll be sharing a cocktail recipe on Monday instead of today while he recuperates. It’s going to be a good one! See you back here on Monday. xoxo

Elegant Rustic Coral Wedding Invitations

Beautiful modern calligraphy paired with a fantastic vintage coral velvet ribbon? Yes, please! These elegant rustic coral wedding invitations from Melissa of Atheneum Creative pair elegant letterpress printed calligraphy with a sophisticated gray, white, and coral color palette and rustic wood details throughout the invitation suite. Absolutely gorgeous!

From Melissa: Hadley and Ross planned a rustic wedding in the mountains, but wanted their wedding to be sophisticated and elegant at the same time. We started working on their wedding monogram and their wedding stationery with that concept in mind: rustic, modern, and softly elegant.

The wedding invitation was letterpress printed with gray calligraphy text on white paper, then bound with a vintage velvet coral ribbon and a custom wood tag featuring the wedding monogram. The coral ribbon is absolutely gorgeous when paired with the cherry wood tag! The wedding invitation suite also included an accordion-fold booklet with a wood front and back cover. The booklet listed all of the wedding events and contained a custom map. The wood booklet cover helped provide the rustic feel for the invitation suite. A letterpress printed reception card in coral calligraphy, a formal RSVP card in gray calligraphy, and gray envelopes completed the invitation suite.

We also had lots of fun with their day-of wedding stationery. Napkins and stir sticks in matching colors, ceremony programs, and more! Our favorite detail of all has to be the custom copper cups that were sitting at everyone place setting. The copper just popped right off the table! We also made a custom coffee travel cup for guests to grab for brunch on the go the following morning.
