This was the perfect chance to pay homage to the original queen of romantic movies, Audrey Hepburn, with a curated vintage postage stamp. The envelope was addressed with walnut ink, which was also used on the vellum place cards, to keep that nostalgia flowing.
The invitation is printed on a 100% cotton rag handmade paper from Fabulous Fancy Pants, leaving the natural deckled edges untouched for that organic textural element. Since there were so many other delicate details, I didn’t want an overwhelming color palette that detracted from the design. The invitation is printed entirely in a soft muted gray. To complete the design, I used a geometric sans serif font throughout the suite just to give it a little modern twist. I also carried this accent on to the main card as well. This image in my mind’s eye is what led to the falling jasmine on the vellum overlay. I imagined the couple on a swing under a jasmine vine with flowers delicately falling on them as the swing. The highlight this inspiration an illustration of the venue is the main element on the details page.
I was drawn to the romance of the vineyard venue as I designed this suite. The focal point is the names of the bride and groom, so I used my signature gossamer-like calligraphy style in lithe movement for that elegant and delicate feel. I always find myself drawn to features with muted tones, soft color palettes, and organic textures. I wanted to create a timeless piece so I stayed with a traditional classic layout. I imagined a classic and romantic wedding on a vineyard, and that led me to create this ethereal invitation design with vellum and handmade paper.
