Design Focus: Recent Invitations

Here's what we've been up to lately! Lot's of custom work by On Paper Press- Joe has been creating some great new invitation designs. Michelle has been working closely with brides on selection and all of the design details that make their wedding stationery truly unique. And, of course, we continue to do many fresh updates on timeless classics with some of the country's most established printers... Crane, William Arthur, Checkerboard, to name a few. Here's a closer look at the details...

While there has not been any one singular trend focus on the horizon- two stand out mini trends are: purples reign for color and a move toward less color and a return to black and white. Full bleed border designs (where the pattern flows of the page) are still popular and more organic shapes and themes of nature are also strong design motifs. That said- it keeps our job really fun- no one particular focus but a broad scope of design delight!

Stay tuned for more on specific designers and emerging trends in upcoming posts...
