Hello! Lucky wedding invitations

You know what we love most about Hello!Lucky? They’re always creating fresh new wedding stationery designs that can be ordered in luxe letterpress (our fave), or flat printing for brides on a budget. Like their two new designs, La Vie En Rose and Classic Rose seen below. Too pretty! Plus, we love how all the invites on their site can be almost completely customized with your favorite font and colors. And did we mention, they now offer Save The Date Magnets? So many pretty things to look at. Also, don’t miss Sabrina and Eunice kids neon 2nd birthday party on 100 Layer Cakelet. Go take a peek!

A custom invite suite from MaeMae Paperie

categories Pretty Paper

This beauty came special delivery from MaeMae herself. It’s the latest invite suite created by Megan Gonzalez for a dream client, Jillian. Isn’t it divine?

Mae Mae Paperie

According to Megan, Jillian was her ideal bride to work with – passionate about paper, appreciates old methods of printing, and loves color. After discussing her vision for her stationery, Jillian looked through the MaeMae Wedding Collection and dreamed up this suite from different bits and pieces of existing invitation suites.

Gorgeous! You two were a perfect match.

Stationery design: MaeMae Paperie / Calligraphy sample: Betsy Dunlap / Photography: Wing Ta of Canary Grey

Jessica Hische and Russ wedding sign

Jessica and Russ set quite the tone with their ingenious timeline wedding invitation, their even more visionary wedding website, and precursor picnic wedding celebration in San Francisco. Then it was off to Brooklyn, their now home away from home, to party with 300 of their friends & fam. Props to Sugar & Fluff for designing & planning a second bash for such dream clients. They’re seasoned pros at this: turning an already beautiful venue like The Green Building into a memorable experience, taking J + R’s style and palette and creating a seamless love story with it. We’re thankful photographer Kristen Marie was behind the lens capturing every pretty detail, because there were plenty. Endless cat stickers and Tattly tattoos included.

As far as invitations go, their collaborative timeline love story, created by a multitude of their designer friends and artists, pretty much blows us away. We shared a few snippets from their wedding website above, but you can see it in entire digital form, here.

Loved the typography in these Alee and Press wedding invitations!

Using washed pastels, Pitbulls & Posies created the dreamiest paper elements for this California wedding.

We got to take a peek at this divine new collection of invitations by Mae Mae Paperie while they were on display at Urbanic in Venice, and mmm they were good!

This couple did a beautiful job with the letterpressed wedding invitations for their North Carolina wedding. They were hand painted with a subtle watercolor wash that made them oh so romantic.

These peachy wedding invitations from Suger Coated Events were such a sweet touch to this Australian wedding.

How could these invites not catch your eye? The typography, gold foil, and colors, love! Tabletop Made nailed it.
