Black + White Wedding Invites for Tea & Danilo

Black and White Wedding Invitations

If you love black and white invitations, then you’re going to go bonkers for this gorgeous custom wedding invitation suite by Valentina of CUTandPASTE. This project was one of Valentina’s favorites, and I can understand why.

Black and White Wedding Invitations

Black and White Wedding

Black and white is an unusual color palette for Italian weddings, and Valentina was incredibly excited to be able to work on this project for Tea and Danilo because she thought this would be the perfect opportunity to show Italian couples that a black and white palette could be an elegant and timeless solution. The resulting wedding suite undoubtedly embodies both elegance and timelessness and features a mix of stripe, dot, and heart patterns that, along with the sweet font used in the design, brings a bit of playfulness and fun to the whole package.

Parents Bride and Groom Invitations

The suite also features a special version of the invitations for the parents of the bride and groom. Included in this “kit” are the invitations, chocolates and macarones, all packaged in a white box with black tissue and finished with custom labels and black and white striped ribbon.

Wedding Paper Details

Valentina created many additional paper details for this very special occasion, including a large “welcome” print for the castle in which the wedding took place, as well as escort cards, table numbers, menus, a door hanger for tea, a custom guestbook area, and incredibly darling laser cut flags for the dessert buffet. Black and white heaven!

Coral + Grey Letterpress Wedding Invites

Coral and Grey Letterpress Wedding Invitations

Ooh, ready for some gorgeous invitations? This romantic suite was created by Salt + Pepper Press (photos by Sarah Q Photography) for Katie and Blake’s mid-April wedding, which took place on the lush grounds of the University of Texas Golf Club, and I’m completely enamored with all of the gorgeous coral and grey letterpress paper goods that were a part of this celebration.

The invitation suite features lovely calligraphy, and the invite and rsvp were tied together with baker’s twine and finished with a tag featuring a quote by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The romantic coral and grey color scheme was carried through to all of the paper details, including patterned table numbers, menus, and cookie signs.
