Laura + Adam: Custom Wax Seal Invitations

Laura and Adam loved the idea of using a wax seal on their wedding invitations. I always hate the idea of putting it on the envelopes with the possibility that the post office is going to rip it off.  So I came up with a great solution!  I put it right on the invitation and then….

..I used vellum envelopes so that the wax seal showed through to the guest, but was still protect.  Laura had been collecting vintage postage stamps for over a year for the invitations.  Each one meant something to the couple and wedding as opposed to matching the color and theme.

The invitations were design with a vintage border and printed with two color thermography.

On the inside of the folded card, the inserts with held in with a matching sash of silver paper.

Vintage postage also adorns the rsvp envelopes.

The wax seal was custom designed with their monogram and the wax was a pearlized green.  Ivory cording was wrapped around the invitation and the wax seal held it in place.
