Classic Black and White Formal Letterpress Invitations by New York Wedding Invitations designer Lela New York

I Love the classics. Black and white, beautiful luscious cotton papers and incredible luxurious silks make this wedding invitation in a class of it's own. The luxurious affair took place at a private country club in Massachusetts and the couple wanted a more classic and elegant look for their small intimate wedding. Lela New York created a lovely book style wedding invitation that was letterpressed in black ink and tied with a white bow. A Lovely introduction to their elegant wedding day.

The Royal Wedding Invitations | Kate and William's Luxury Wedding Invitations

I was so excited when Lela New York was asked by Brides.com to redesign the Royal Wedding Invitations of Prince William and Kate Middleton! Here is our version ;)

Mixing both classic and modern details I wanted to use our very popular silk gatefolds for the invite accessory and keeping the actual invitation card classic. We made a portrait style invitation and used a royal navy for the silk color that was custom embroidered in a deeper navy to give a rich texture. A gold version was also applied on the inside of the invitation which can be seen when the invite is opened. The center closure is a custom made emblem that has the Royal "ER" engraved in the center and adorned with crystal details.
The invitation itself is a cream extra thick cotton stock that has been beveled and printed in a traditional all script gold engraving.
The whole invitation would be sent in a custom diecut envelope that has a custom printed liner in a matching gold pattern.

Here is a closer look!

Lela LOVES NYC wedding invitations created with a Brooklyn Bride in mind

Photo by The Palm House

Lela New York created these luxury modern Brooklyn wedding invitations for a couple being married in the Brooklyn Botanical Garden's The Palm House. With a venue like that, you know the invitations had to be special enough to reflect the couples big day. Lela used botanical inspiration along with art nouveau design to create their hand drawn custom wedding invitation. They also wanted to add a bit of a twist and a bit of fun so we added a saying like, "see ya in Brooklyn" on the RSVP's and hand drew the Brooklyn Bridge to go with their location and fun theme. This New York wedding invitation was finished off with a custom made decorative envelope that was lined with a beautiful scarlet red paper stock to give it that extra pop. This design was all letterpressed for that rich and luxurious feeling.

Luxury Wedding Invitations in Purple Silk w/ Lace & crystal details by New York wedding invitation designer Lela New York

This is one of my favorite luxury wedding invitations that we, at Lela New York have created! I know, I say that a lot, but this wedding invitation really is beautiful!

This invitation was created for a destination wedding in Capri, Italy and was inspired by the brides wedding lace wedding gown and purple and lavender details. The silk invitation is a gatefold style and opens in the middle revealing the ultra thick letterpress and foil stamped invitation. The two pockets on each side of the gatefold/book style invite holds the bride's rsvp and reception cards. The inside of this luxury invite is also layered with a pretty lace that gives it such a elegant look and reflects the bride's style and wedding. The custom invitation design and graphics were inspired by their exquisite location and was hand drawn and later letterpressed. And the invitation was finished of with a silver satin ribbon and custom crystal closure.
I just love it!

Vintage Inspiration Board by New York Luxury wedding invitation designer Lela New York

Hi Everyone!

Just wanted to kick the weekend off with some pretty vintage purple inspiration with Lela New York's Luxury wedding invitations. The luxury letterpress invitations are super thick and made of a luxurious 4 ply/extra thick 100% cotton paper stock. The wedding invitations were printed with 3 colors and wrapped with a letterpress belly band in plum. Love purple with pewter grays and ivories. 

The wedding dress is by Monique Lhuillier and is just so romantic with that pretty vintage vibe that everyone is loving right now. And I just love the bridesmaid dress color from After Six.

Beautiful Letterpress Vintage Lace Wedding Invitations by New York invitations designer Lela New York

I wanted to share these amazing lace letterpress wedding invitations that were inspired by the vintage theme of the bride's beautiful lace gown. The couple was having an intimate Newport, R.I. wedding that was held in a beautiful hotel that over looked the ocean called The Chanler at Cliff Walk.

The wedding invitations were printed in 3 colors. A beautiful dark eggplant, pewter and a soft cream that when printed imitated the lace details on the brides dress! Lela New York also designed their beautiful letterpress programs, menus and place cards to complete their wedding day style. All printed on 100% cotton/tree free paper.

I loved the way they came out, hope you do too!

Purple & Pink Luxury Wedding Invitations Photo Shoot by New York invitations designer Lela New York

These wedding invitations are one of my favorites! I know, I say that a lot but, these are so unique and personal to the couple. Lela New York designed the couples wedding invitations using a vellum overlay to tell their engagement story. The couple took a small plane ride to a small island off the coast of Cali and got engaged! Super romantic! Plus the couple have been best friends for the longest before he popped the question. The invitations were placed inside a custom purple silk invitation folio that was embroidered with their custom monogram using silver thread. The custom letterpress invitations were later boxed inside these pretty silver boxes and wrapped in silver tissue paper. The purple and pink invitations were a big hit, and the monogram and graphics are being used through out the wedding. Enjoy these beautiful picts!
