In the Press

Featured on the glossy pages of the July/August Brides issue are a few recent R&J creations. The combination of pinks and citrus colours was carried throughout the reception and gave the guests a nice element of surprise. Escort booklets were created to guide each guest to their table, while a whimsical love quiz was featured on the inside pages to get the conversations started. Each booklet featured the guests’ names on the front cover and their table number along the back. Tags featuring the saying ‘All you need is love’ carried the sweet and citrus theme throughout. A sweet occasion indeed.

A touch of gold

Taking inspiration from the stunning location of the wedding, this invitation and rehearsal dinner invite introduced the feel of the wedding weekend. This folded invitation featured the couple’s name encased by a decorative border, while the inside invited each guest to join in the celebrations in a traditional script. Both invitations were foil blocked in metallic ink which gave the wedding suite a lovely pop. Each envelope was hand-addressed by Christopher Austin and featured a contrasting colour for an added punch.

Flights of fancy

In first meeting with the lovely bride and groom to be, it became clear quite quickly that they were wanting to create a design just a bit different from the norm. Incorporating bits of traditional formatting with some whimsical adornments and modern font choices gave the design of this invitation suite the modern mix the couple was looking for. The wedding suite was comprised of the invitation, RSVP card and envelope, outer envelope with wrap-around address labels and pre-wedding celebration invitation and they resulted in the perfect mix of modern vintage.
