Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I’m so excited to share with you these gor­geous wed­ding invi­ta­tion suite for Jaime and Anthony’s Sun Valley wed­ding. Designed by Kate Holgate and printed by Paper Mill Designs Stationery & Letterpress Studio,

Here are some more details in Kate’s own words:

Jaime and Anthony are get­ting mar­ried out­doors in the beau­ti­ful his­toric Sun Valley, Idaho. Sun Valley is a laid-back resort town sur­rounded by gor­geous moun­tains with numer­ous aspen groves. Jaime was wide-open to ideas and only requested that I some­how tie in an ‘aspen’ theme. Her col­ors are coral and khaki, so I intro­duced a teal color to the pal­let as well. The save-the-date cards have a tree ring time­line (blind let­ter­press) show­ing impor­tant dates in Jaime and Anthony’s rela­tion­ship. For the invi­ta­tion suite, I cre­ated a pat­tern that repeats the aspen leaf sym­bol (also blind let­ter­press), a wood grain tex­ture, and used vintage-inspired typog­ra­phy. Stamped muslin bags replaced the tra­di­tional inner enve­lope. My over­all goal was to design some­thing that was nat­ural yet elegant.
