frances & craig :: letterpress order of service booklets

Images above of some super lovely letterpress order of service booklets we recently designed and letterpress printed for Frances and Craig who were wed this weekend past at the stunning Crypt at St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney.

Letterpress printed on our ivory cotton stocks in a mid tone grey ink, the classic typographic is combined with a triple pinstripe for a modern take on a classic design. The internal pages were digitally printed on matching ivory stocks and printed double sided. These are all inserted into our trimmed and scored letterpress cover, and then bound with machine stitching along the spine for a very sweet order of service program. Just lovely!

angela & justin :: letterpress wedding stationery

Angela and Justin approached us last July to start the process designing and letterpress printing gorgeous wedding invitation stationery for their April 2012 wedding. Currently based in the Carribean (so jealous!!) they were planning their wedding from afar for the gorgeous Gunners Barracks in Mossman, Sydney.

After receiving a beautiful email from Angela and Justin confessing their love for our design nature of classic simplicity combined with exceptional print quality, we were very excited to start working with this couple who shared our love and appreciation of classic design and typography.

Their brief to us was to design and letterpress print save the dates, invitations, information cards, thank you cards and envelopes to suit. With simple styling as not to distract from the historical elegance and stunning views from Gunners Barracks, they were attracted to designs with lovely combinations of typefaces and a strong use of white space which allows for an optimum printed impression upon the press.

We commissioned gorgeous hand lettering for their names and thank you text and combined this with a very sweet, yet classically styled monogram. Coupled with combinations of upper case serif body copy and lower case italics script, we completed the whole package off with a simple three dot motif to balance the central alignment of the design. All printed on our ivory 100% cotton paper in a classic black ink.

Despite being many thousands of kilometres away we adored working with Angie & Justin - A gorgeous couple, who sent us lovely emails and who were an absolute pleasure to work with! We love that in today's age of technology working from afar is just as possible as working from around the corner. What a joy it is to combine centuries old craftsmanship with modern fancy technology!

We wish Angela & Justin the most magical day in April!!

zara and sam :: letterpress wedding stationery

 

Today's gorgeous wedding suite is a recent letterpress invitation set which we designed and letterpress printed for the gorgeous Zara and Sam who are a Brisbane based couple who are to be wed this coming March at the amazing Maleny Manor in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. We love Maleny Manor - our very own Louise had her wedding there several years ago, and we have worked with many couples in the past who have chosen this beautiful venue for their wedding. With stunning views, a gorgeous combination of modern vintage and impeccable food and gardens this truly is one of Queensland's very best venues.Zara and Sams brief to us was to reflect a little of the beauty of Maleny Manor combined with their colour tones of greys, ivory and blush. Their day will include a lot of beautiful flowers, modern vintage styling and a lot of small inmate personal touches.

We designed and letterpress printed a 2 colour square invitation, featuring subtle ivory floral illustrations combined with classic grey typography. Masses of white space on this invitation allow for both a stunning printed impression as well as a classic yet modern elegance to the design. We combined their invitation with a reply card (with envelope), gift card and information card, which was all held together with a personalised bellyband and housed inside of lined envelopes. We are currently also working on gorgeous place settings and menus for their upcoming day!

We wish Zara and Sam the most magical of magical days on March 10th, we will be thinking of you and cannot wait to see the beautiful photos of your day!

nicole & ryan :: letterpress wedding invitations

Late last year we had the delicious pleasure of delivering these beautiful letterpress wedding invitations for Nicole and Ryan. Based in the gorgeous Kiama of New South Wales, this adorable couple was planning their April wedding to be held at the Moana Surfrider Hotel in Honolulu, Hawaii!

We have actually stayed at this incredible hotel in the summer of 2010 (you can see our blog post here). We did a small squeal of excitement when we heard from Nicole and Ryan that they were to be wed at this historic and incredibly beautiful venue. We had serious envy and it was a beautiful moment of fate.

Their brief to us for the custom design and letterpress print of their wedding stationery, was a design which complimented their soft garden romance with soft pastels and sweet tropical relaxed elegance. We commissioned gorgeous hand lettering and combined this with a serif typeface (in lower case for a sweet relaxed feel) combined with a complimentary lower case script. The design featured a sweet vintage light ivory ink floral illustration and masses of white space which not only allows us to achieve an optimum print impression, but also excludes a air of sweet sophistication.

Their suite included 2 colour invitations and 1 colour information cards bound inside of an outer 100% cotton ivory envelope with our scalloped address labels. Just lovely!

We wish Nicole and Ryan the most beautiful beautiful day in Hawaii in April, and make sure you say hello to Moana for us, we sure do miss her!!

cheree & mitchell :: letterpress wedding stationery

 

Late last year we had the pleasure of designing and letterpress printing stunning letterpress wedding invitations for Cheree and Mitchell who are based in Sydney, NSW. They have an amazing day planned for next weekend, with a ceremony at the incredible Centennial Parklands and a reception at the Sydney Opera House.

With a theme planned of unrefined glamour and a touch of bohemian - with a  relaxed elegance created with masses of linens, french lace, cut crystal, weathered timber tables, chandeliers and candles - their day sounds like an unbelievable visual feast!

They commissioned us to design and letterpress wedding stationery as a beautiful introduction for their day. We in turn commissioned a hand lettering calligrapher to design a hand written script to best reflect their day, coupled with a classic serif in upper and lower case combinations, combined with a subtle ivory peony illustration and masses of white space for an element of sophisticated glamour.

Their letterpress wedding suite included 2 colour invitations (black and light ivory ink), as well as letterpress reply postcards, gift cards and a detailed map to help guests navigate the tricky Centennial Parklands, all packaged inside of lined envelopes - just gorgeous!

We wish Cheree and Mitchell the most magical of magic days next Saturday!

anett & russell :: save the dates

We recently had the pleasure of designing and printing this gorgeous save the date letterpress stationery for Anett and Russell. Anett is an Australian girl who fell in love with an English chap and together they have shared their lives both here in Australia and in the United Kingdom. With a wedding planned for October 2012, we had the joy of designing save the dates for their English cocktail reception to be held in London.

With guests travelling from afar, Anett and Russell's requirements for their save the dates where that they were classically sophisticated, with a hint of regal styling in their design. We designed a custom monogram which was letterpress printed with stunning typography on our white 100% cotton stocks. Teamed up with printed envelopes we adore this stationery suite and cannot wait to continue this theme into Anett and Russell's wedding stationery!

catherine & joel :: order of service booklets

Earlier this month we completed these super sweet order of service booklets for Catherine and Joel who were married at All Saints Chapel, Hamilton Island. We illustrated the sweet motif of the weatherboard chapel and competed this with typography to suit the invitations in which we had previously designed. Letterpressed on white 100% cotton paper in a mid tone grey ink, we then digitally printed the internal service pages and machine stitched the spine binding. Just lovely!

penny & glyn :: letterpress save the dates

 

We recently designed and letterpress printed these super lovely save the dates for Penny and Glyn from Victoria. They are planning a late Autumn 2012 wedding at the divine Stones of the Yarra Valley. With a chapel ceremony, converted barn reception, masses of white flowers with greenery and gorgeous rustic timber elements we love the plans they have for their day.

Penny & Glyn's brief to us was to represent their day through the use of rustic elements combined with classic styling and gorgeous typography.

We love their final chosen design - it's use of space and combinations of typefaces, as well as the vintage motif perfectly presents the letterpress impression and has resulted in a beautifully tactile save the date card. Just lovely!

aleisha & karl :: letterpress wedding stationery

Last Friday was the magical date of the 11th of the 11th 2011 - A pretty special day as far as numbers go. We had a few gorgeous couples getting married on this day and one of the was Karl and Aleisha from Western Australia.

We designed and letterpressed their wedding set several months ago to be classically beautiful yet tactile and beautiful to the touch. A blind impressed pattern was printed on our 100% cotton paper and teamed up with our sweet love heart and strong and simple typography. The suite included invitations, printed and lined envelopes (with address scalloped labels) reply postcard, gift cards and placesettings. 

We simply adored the blind impressed pattern - its simplicity yet small intricacies made it perfect for letterpress - blind impressed patterns are best suited with strong areas of negative and positive space inside of the pattern itself - so this one was perfect. We loved a hundred times over!

Sarah & Ben :: letterpress order of service booklets

We recently had the pleasure of designing and printing wedding Stationery for the Brisbane based Sarah and Ben. With their wedding just gone this last weekend, we wanted to show you a little snapshot of their order of service covers - beautiful typography, masses of white space and ivory stitched spines to the booklets - just lovely!!!

It was a pleasure to design and print for this lovely couple and we wish them all the very best as they start their new lives together!

kym & zac :: letterpress place settings

Fresh of the press this week are super sweet wedding place setting tags we completed for Kym & Zac whose wedding stationery we featured a month or so ago. With a letterpress outer casing designed to match their envelope liner and digital printed name inserts our place settings are bound with a silver eyelet and these gorgeous swing tags came complete with black satin ribbon. We love making these little beauties. We get a production line happening with cutting, folding, adhering and eyeletting. They are quite fiddly little tags to make, but so worth the effort!

We wish Kym and Zac all the very best for their November wedding - such a beautiful couple to work with - beautiful style, beautiful personalities and a dream to design and print for. It has been such a pleasure!

yoong & lilia :: save the dates

 

Fresh of the press is a gorgeous set of save the date cards designed and printed for Sydney based Yoong and Lilia. With their Spring 2012 wedding set for the gorgeous Sergents Mess, we designed their save the dates to be super sweet and clean in design to make the most of a gorgeously deep letterpress impression.

We commissioned gorgeous thread hand lettering as the main feature, coupled with vintage inspired typography and two little song birds to reflect Yoong and Lilia's theme. Printed on our 100% cotton ivory in a lovely deep vintage brown ink, we love the sweet simplicity, the striking use of space and super lovely lettering. The perfect combination for letterpress!

lachlan & elizabeth :: wedding stationery

Fresh out of the studio is a gorgeous wedding suite designed and printed for Melbourne based Lachlan and Elizabeth. Their summer wedding is to be held at Daylesford, Victoria where they are planning a country weekend shared with their closest friends and family.

Their brief letterpress wedding stationery was was for nothing too formal, however to inject hints of country styling complete with strong typography and relaxed elegance.

We designed several invitation styles to suit Lachlan and Elizabeth's theme and we worked with them to finesse their final choice of a strong typographic justified design with masses of white space featuring a delicate thin weight slab serif typeface. The simplicity of gorgeous type completed with white space is ideal for letterpress as it allows a strong printed impression for the areas of ink.

Lachlan & Elizabeth's wedding suite included invitations, gift cards, picnic cards and reply cards all housed inside of our matching envelopes. Printed on 100% cotton ivory paper, we hand mixed a lovely summer pink to match their styling.

It was so lovely to work with this super sweet couple and we wish them a happy, sunny and magical summers day in the country!
