Catherine + Nick’s Rustic Burlap and Wood Wedding Invitations

Happy Monday everyone! I love starting the week with a gorgeous invitation suite, and this week we have a beautiful and rustic wedding invitation (and save the date!) from the ladies of Atheneum Creative! Melissa and Amy of Atheneum Creative based the design around a custom wreath monogram, incorporating materials like burlap and wood veneer along with a natural color palette to tie everything together.

From Melissa + Amy: We worked with Catherine and Nick on their rustic weekend wedding. We used materials such as wood and burlap and a deep natural color palette to to pull the look together.

We created a monogram that incorporated a wreath of leaves to introduce the rustic feel and carried it through the day of materials. The invitation is backed with wood and packaged with a printed burlap pocket.

In keeping with the look of the wedding we bought in chalkboards for the buffet signage and designed custom water bottle labels.

Given the amount of out of town guests we created a reply card to work with the save the date for an early indication of attendance. We also worked on a welcome package letter that included layered cards hand stitched together.

Stephanie + Trey’s Coral and Aqua Destination Wedding Invitations

Last March, I featured these awesome passport-inspired save the dates for a wedding in the bahamas from Melissa and Amy at Atheneum Creative – and today they’re back with the wedding invitations! Melissa and Amy incorporated the linen from the save the dates, along with a beach-inspired coral and aqua color palette. So beautiful!

From Melissa + Amy: To keep with the style of Stephanie and Trey’s passport save the dates, we brought the linen into the invitation as a backer and stitched the card directly to it. We incorporated watercolor calligraphy on the invitation as well as the welcome party card and lined the envelope with a coral pattern. Overall we wanted to keep the design airy, clean, and flowing to evoke the ocean feel.

Janna + Brian’s Vintage-Inspired Wedding Stationery

For Janna and Brian’s wedding stationery, Melissa and Amy from Atheneum Creative incorporated a postcard save the date and fold-out poster wedding invitation – all with a vintage look inspired in large part by the architecture of the wedding venue.  Melissa and Amy also created some really fun day-of stationery details, from ceremony programs to menus!

From Melissa + Amy: When Janna and Brian told us that they were getting married at Villa Del Largo in Austin – a place full of gorgeous arches – we knew that we wanted the venue’s architectural elements to resonate in the design.  We decided to pull those arches into a wedding logo and incorporate the logo throughout the invitations and day-of materials.

Janna and Brian asked us to create a vintage look and feel for their wedding.  We knew that the couple wanted to send out a postcard for their save the date, so we wanted to give the typography the vintage feel in addition to the photo on the front of the postcard.

For the invitation, Janna and Brian wanted to do something really different – and since almost all the guests are from out of town, what better way to highlight the Texas wedding venue than with a large fold-out poster invitation?  We created each panel to reveal more information, including an rsvp postcard.

We also created several day-of elements, including welcome baskets, place cards and escort cards, menus, ceremony programs, and signs.  The ceremony programs doubled as fans to keep guests cool during the outdoor ceremony.

Janna and Brian used one very long table for their guests; two large chalkboard signs in vintage frames directed guests to their seats, while kraft paper place card tags were tied around each silverware setting.  We screen printed the menus directly onto the linen napkins.

Their welcome basket included an accordion fold welcome letter along with custom drink koozies featuring the wedding logo, hang tags for soda, and even a recipe of grandma’s strawberry bread.

Mary + Ben’s Elegant and Rustic Day-of Wedding Stationery

As promised, we’re back with some of the day-of wedding stationery that Melissa and Amy from Atheneum Creative put together for Mary and Ben’s wedding.  As with the save the dates and wedding invitations, Melissa and Amy continued to incorporate wood veneer elements to complement the elegant and rustic wedding style – from ceremony programs and escort cards to menus and table numbers.

 

From Melissa + Amy: The ceremony program reflected the rustic element, with a wood veneer cover and letterpress printed pages mounted inside.  The wood veneer cover was also letterpress printed with Mary and Ben’s names and the wedding location.

 

We also created cocktail napkins and bathroom towels with Mary and Ben’s wedding logo.  The escort cards were a combination custom pocket envelope and digitally printed slip-in card with the table number.  Guest names were calligraphed on the outside of each envelope.

 

For the table numbers, we wanted to continue with wood as our material but do something a little different in the production process.  We used hand written calligraphy numerals and laser die cut each table number.

So cool!  Thanks Melissa + Amy!

Mary + Ben’s Elegant and Rustic Letterpress Wedding Invitations

Happy Monday everyone!  You might remember these fabulous wood veneer save the dates from Melissa and Amy at Atheneum Creative – and today they’re back with the gorgeous wedding invitations and day-of stationery.  We’ll start with the invitations first before moving onto the stationery details a bit later today.  Melissa and Amy honored the rustic elegance of the save the dates with subtle wood veneer elements in the invitation suite.  So pretty!

From Melissa + Amy: We are so grateful that Mary and Ben trusted us with the stationery for their entire wedding day!  They allowed us to push the envelope on all their materials and challenged us to step it up!  We previously shared the letterpress printed wood save the date, which really set the tone for the invitation and day of materials.

 

For the invitation we introduced calligraphy while keeping the rustic look from the save the date.  Mary loves mixing materials and printing methods, so we letterpress printed the invitation and backed it with wood veneer, while foil stamping (and letterpress printing) the reception card.  The whole set is bound by a velvet bellyband and letterpress printed wood tag.

 

Just gorgeous!  Check back a bit later for the day-of stationery from Mary and Ben’s wedding, including their beautiful menus and ceremony programs!
