E & J’s Sentimental Wedding at a Picturesque Country Club

E & J’s Sentimental Wedding at a Picturesque Country Club

E & J’s vision is uncomplicated: to gather all their friends in beautiful nature. We built their graceful suite around effortless romance to support the sweeping greenery of their airy country club venue.  

A delicate floral frame, arranged from a 19th century embroidered silk, is letterpressed into a pastel blue ink. As a nod to their favorite board game Wingspan, a pair of sweet lovebirds join the floral scene.  An extra deep impression into double-thick cotton paper makes for an utterly elevated piece.  

Upon opening the baby pink envelope, an impressionist still life of lush roses fills the scene. The soft romanticism of Renoir’s loose brushwork imbues vitality, and the work is brightened to evoke vibrant summer. On the back flap, the lovebirds greet you again, fitting for a wedding invitation cheerfully delivered to E & J’s loved ones.
