One of the standout elements of this suite was the custom venue illustration featured on the cover of the details booklet.

 

We created a fine art architectural illustration of Laurel Hall, capturing the venue’s historic character and storybook-like charm in a soft, artistic style. Venue illustrations are one of our favorite ways to make invitations feel deeply connected to the wedding experience itself — especially at venues as iconic and visually beautiful as Laurel Hall.

 

The illustration gave guests a first glimpse into the atmosphere of the day long before they ever arrived.

 

The invitation cards were stacked and wrapped in a Soft Ivory silk ribbon for an intentionally soft, romantic presentation. Silk ribbon adds movement and texture in a way that instantly elevates an invitation suite, especially when paired with delicate materials like cotton paper and deckled edges.

 

To finish the suite, each ribbon wrap was secured with a custom gold wax seal featuring the couple’s “KA” initials. The warm metallic gold added subtle contrast against the soft ivory tones while tying into the suite’s vintage-inspired aesthetic beautifully.

 

These tactile details are often what guests remember most — the soft ribbon, the texture of the paper, the weight of the wax seal — because they transform invitations from simple stationery into an experience.

 

 

Inside each envelope was a vintage-inspired watercolor floral liner featuring soft roses and painterly florals in muted, romantic tones. The liner created a beautiful surprise moment for guests as soon as the envelope was opened, adding depth, color, and a touch of old-world charm to the suite.

 

Envelope liners are often one of the most impactful ways to add personality and artistry to a wedding invitation design, and this one perfectly complemented the overall vintage elegance of Kate and Austin’s wedding style.

 

From the hand torn edges to the watercolor florals and silk ribbon finishing details, every piece of Kate and Austin’s invitation suite was designed to feel timeless, romantic, and deeply personal to their wedding day.

 

The final result felt perfectly at home with the historic beauty of Laurel Hall — soft, elegant, and full of thoughtful details that welcomed guests into the celebration long before the wedding day arrived.
