I just came across a photograph of Sara and Ryan featured on Wedding Bee Pro by Bella Figura (inspiration board inspired by all things Tiffany – Bella Figura Client Coordinator). Bella Figura is an environmental artisan letterpress shop that creates unique letterpress wedding invitations the old-fashioned way, using vintage cast-iron presses, the best paper, time, patience, perfection, and a whole lot of love.

I just got Cara and Spencer’s invite in the mail! It’s so charming and I love that Cara designed it all herself. She should do this professionally don’t you think? This couple will be getting married this September in Jackson Hole.
So here’s info from Cara on this DIY project:
Q. Who designed your invitation suite?
A. Well… I designed the entire thing! And the graphic designer here at the paper put my designs in InDesign.
Q. What inspired you?
A. They are based off a wedding I saw in Martha Stewart Weddings.
Q. Who printed the fabric invite?
A. I had a lady in Oakland do the screen printing. Her name is Karol Doi.
Q. Where did you find the paper for the reply cards and envelopes?
A. The paper stuff is from Paper Source. I ordered 260 of the enclosure cards.
Q. Who printed the reply cards?
A. The printer is in Charlotte, NC.
Q. The raffia is a nice touch. Who did you have assemble that for you?
A. My mom bought the raffia for a couple dollars form Michaels. She sewed all 130 invites, stuffed them and put the raffia around them. I have a wonderful mother!
Q. I love your vintage stamps. Where did you find those?
A. I ordered all the stamps from EBay.
Q. How much did this all cost?
A. Envelopes, folders, rsvp and event cards and printing were $200. Still, so much cheaper than letterpress but still has a huge wow factor. Cloth invites $300 (if you buy your own cloth, this goes down significantly. we paid $1 an invite. but if you have time and can cut them all yourself, you can save a lot of money). Total cost for 130 invites was $500 – $600 if you add in the calligrapher.
Thanks Cara for contributing this feature. Your invites are so incredible!

Many of my clients are choosing to announced their celebration with designs from Bird and Banner. Erin and Nicole of Bird and Banner designed Carrie and Barrett’s programs, BBQ rub jars, table numbers and menus for their August 2008 wedding in Jackson Hole (their wedding is featured in current issue of The Knot – Spring Summer 2009). My couple, Lia and Mark, will be using Bird and Banner for their upcoming wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch in Moran, Wyoming as well. I can’t wait to see what Erin and Nicole come up with.
I love the personality in their custom invitation suites — modern design sensibility coupled with playfulness and whimsy. Their entire portfolio is a feast for the eyes. For more info visit Bird and Banner’s website.
