Introducing... The Invite!

This tiny piece of paper may not seem like much in the overall scheme of weddings. But to guests, the invite is a first introduction into your vision. A good invitation should sum up the feel and look of your wedding. Most of all it should be reflective of you as a couple.

Keep your guest guessing and excite them for the event to come with these great picks below:

Make a statement! I am heads over heels about this vendor. We could not be more excited to feature Carciofi Design. The owner, Caroline, produces the most elaborate and visually stunning invitations to date. Each design is adorned to the max with different combinations of rhinestones, ribbons, elegant fonts, flowers and wax seals. Receiving this invite is sure to create anticipation and conversation. Put a Carciofi Design in your guests’ hands and you will already receive compliments.

A great trend in invitations is the letterpress. Using a heavier card stock, invitations are literally pressed with design and text to make a textured invite. To speak about letterpress is not enough; it is a look and feel you must experience. Order a sample from one of the best, BellaFigura. Choose from their many styles and customizable coloration.
