Today we are thrilled to be bring you yet another international wedding suite! Earlier this year we worked with Pascal and Elina, who reside in The Netherlands, on their stationery for wedding events being held at the beautiful Akerby Herrgard in Nora, Sweden. Despite the logistical challenges (including a 6 hour time difference and not being able to review papers, fabrics, and print styles in person) the project was a lot of fun. The invitation was laid in a champagne colored silk folio, with a clinched ivory ribbon and embellishment on each door. Inside, all components were screen printed in a midnight blue ink on a frosted gold paper. We learned a great deal from working on this suite – including cultural nuances such as using the verbiage “Tenue de Ville” in place of “Black Tie Optional”. The folded menu cards listed each course paired with a different wine in both Swedish and Dutch. Finally, the place cards with the couple’s monogram were embellished with Swarovski crystals. We loved working on this invitation suite and wish the happy couple the very best with their wedding this July!
