Wedding Stationery - Faye & Chris

Winter weddings can be just as magical as Summer ones - a touch of fur here and there and a sprinkling of snow can make the day complete. An indoor wedding also means you don't need to rely on perfect sunshine for your perfect day. For Faye & Chris the 4th of February was their chosen special day. The look for the day - simple, stylish and white.

We met Faye and her mum Ann at the Bristol Vintage Wedding Fair, where they were looking for something with a hint of classic style, without the rustic vintage trend that is so popular at the moment. Being the perfect client, they were very open minded when it came to the stationery design, giving our creative muscles space to stretch and come up with some very unique ideas.

The outcome - a subtle grey on white scheme, with a monogram motif used throughout, simple and understated without being too fussy and with a hint of fun.

We created the entire suite for the wedding - the accordion Save the Date cards with matching handmade mini envelopes, the main day and evening invitations and all of the day stationery, including the order of service, escort cards and place cards.

Enjoy this Wintery inspiration. (Yes, it even snowed!)

The Save the Date cards - accordion style, litho printed with matching handmade lined envelopes.

The Invitation - Letterpress printed with superfine metallic silver dust onto beautiful Cranes Lettra 600gsm 100% cotton card.
Matching envelopes with printed lining and motif printing to the outside.

Reply cards with return envelopes - these ensure no excuse for delayed replies.

The outer envelope - with bespoke printed lining.

On the day - favours were left at each place setting, acting as the place card too. For the ladies some chocolate...

...for the gentlemen, a lucky lottery ticket!

On the day - the Bride & Groom place settings.

The slim Order of Service booklet included a 'Which Flower are You?' birthday section
to entertain guests while awaiting the bride

Wedding stationery - Sarah and Matthew

A beautiful wedding suite we created for a delightful couple, including wedding invitations, order of service booklets and a table plan for a classic, traditional wedding. 

The invitation was die-stamped with an engraved copper plate in two colours. The monogram was die stamped in metallic gold, followed by maroon die-stamped text, with a matching hand painted bevel edge, emphasized by the extra thick 700gsm board, and delicate tissue lined envelopes. 

We also produced the order of service booklet and a very grand looking table plan. Well it had to be to match such a grand venue, Bath Abbey.

Wedding inspiration - Rumana and Devan

I am excited to finally be able to show you a beautiful letterpress invitation suite designed and printed here at Meticulous Ink for Rumana and Devan's Asian wedding. A joining of two cultures inspired the mendhi design at the top of the invitation, with the text kept simple. 

An added sparkle with a Swarovski crystal made the perfect finishing touch. 

The invitations were letterpress printed onto soft Somerset 100% cotton board, along with 

matching reply cards and return envelopes, all held together with a personalised wrap and tissue lined envelopes. 

The bride looked absolutely stunning on the big day, with a change of outfits for the evening celebrations. We hope you too will be inspired and wish the happy couple all the best.
