For Stephanie's Atlanta wedding, she selected our monogram package for her wedding theme. After Stephanie booked our invitation services we sent her a media kit which contained several monogram invitation sets. Stephanie chose a heavy premium weight invitation stock of triple crown quality. The invitation set was engraved. Dayna sent Stephanie the engraving plate crafted from the hand calligraphy artwork as a keepsake. The engraving plate can be mounted on a wooden box and placed on your coffee table as a heirloom conversation piece. We printed the SC monogram in modern, gold foil on Stephanie's ivory napkins and flat printed her program covers. She also had thank you cards engraved with the monogram. A monogram card can also be used later as informal notes for many years to follow. And the monogram napkins are lovely "at home" too after the wedding day.

destination wedding invitations

~Charlene and Jesse of Virginia Beach were a pleasure to work with. A white cotton, silver edge stationery was chosen by the couple for their beach wedding held in St. Petersburg, Florida. Thermography was used as the printing method to provide the lettering with an elegant feel and to complement the silver accented stationery.

This tropical beach wedding was a destination event in Jewfish Key, Florida -- at the Polynesian Beach House. The wedding invitations featured a hand painted butterfly which I created (then color printed onto the wedding stationery). The colorful butterfly flits gracefully on the invitation and back flap of the wedding envelope with a trailing calligraphy swirl as added embellishment. These invitations captured rare beauty, whimsy and artistic sophistication. Read more about our hand painted wedding invitations for your destination wedding.

This wedding stationery suite was crafted for a New Orleans wedding couple who chose our elegant, hand torn edge wedding invitations. These quality invitations capture sophistication, "old world" charm and romance. They definitely set an opulent tone for weddings abroad, in a romantic destination or an historic setting. The monogram theme was chosen by our client for the invitations, thank you cards, napkins and favor seals. When you select a monogram theme accompanied by our handwritten calligraphy, you can be sure your invitations will be one-of-a-kind, and as the French have coined -- couture!

Clients looking for a modern-look, love hand-crafted invitation sets because they are unique and differently stylish! Invitations that are written by hand make wedding guests feel special and make your wedding uniquely personal. These invitations are a sophisticated modern-approach to a traditional invitation!
