We have a feeling gold is going to be the big color in the world of 2009 letterpress wedding invitations. Not a gaudy old-fashioned over the top gold of course, but an elegant, pretty, sophisticated, modern gold. We love our Lashar design letterpressed in gold + black (with the invitations, reply cards, and place cards backed in a cool flood of raspberry). Both the invitation envelopes and the reply card envelopes are lined with our Marev pattern in gold. Wow. 
Nevis is one of our hot letterpress invitation designs right now (perfect for fall or winter weddings!)–we loved seeing it as a birthday party invitation too, and the striped patterning on the back is pitch-on perfect. It’s such a classic, sophisticated design with an edge of cool. Sent to us by William Ernest Brown in Beverly Hills, California.
Black was the original letterpress ink hundreds of years ago, and we can see why….it’s hard to beat such a crisp, classic, perfect look. We’re seeing a lot of black ink this year and we love it. This is the Cavall letterpress wedding invitation design in black, sent to us by RSVP Today in New York City.
Green seems to be one of the colors of the season! This is an inspired customization of our Aberdeen save the date — perfect in espresso and clover inks. The font is our exclusive Smock Spencerian — a font based on our favorite calligrapher’s penmanship. This save the date was sent to us by our friends at Black Ink.
