Wedding invitations have evolved over the years. What was once a very straight-forward invite on plain white paper now includes multi-piece sets with RSVP cards, maps, a schedule of events, and more – with design elements such as envelope liners, belly bands, watercolor images of the venue, and customized crests.
Here, we highlight some of our favorite invitation suites that feature many of those special details.
