On June 25, 2022, my client's Catrina and Leonardo were married at The Garden Theater in Detroit, Michigan and it was by far one of my favorite weddings of the year.

Catrina was a DREAM to work with. She was so incredibly trusting and inexplicably gave me total creative freedom of over what we created for her invitation suite and signage pieces. I was inspired and influenced by the distinguishable texture of the venue space, the dantiness of the floral elements that were a part of the event design, and the modern and chic touches to best suit the couple's personal preferences. This is how it turned out:

The overall design was composed of bright whites, dusty blues and shades of grey, bunches of baby's breath, and textural elements like striped linen, ceramic tile, and exposed brick.

For the wedding invitations, we through the color scheme and design theme, but added more luxurious elements to really make these stand out! The combination of letterpress printing and blind debossing on the main invitation brought in the modern and chic notes, with the daintiness of the wax seal design to tie in the floral design. The handmade paper details card added softness, as well as the vellum wrap to hold the suite together.

To Catrina and Leonardo, as well as their families, congratulations and thank you from the bottom of my heart for entrusting me to bring your stationery vision to life!
