Bookblock Designers’ Picks: Luxury Wedding Invitations

Posted on September 9, 2021September 28, 2021 by Louise Ashlee

Our luxury wedding invitation collection takes advantage of our premium G . F Smith card stock, so it’s a perfect choice to maintain the high-quality standard for your wedding. As well as the card stock, each invitation comes with up to eight colour options for you to take your pick. A fantastic feature if you love a certain design, but prefer a different colour card.

Floral Doodle and Elegant Floral Wedding Invitations

Starting with a love for classic weddings, our Floral Doodle and Elegant Floral wedding invitation suites are wonderful choices. A wreath surrounding the text can represent unity and makes a gorgeous, illustrative design. The line work on both invitations also connects your eyes to the text, and the calligraphic text and floating flowers ooze classiness and luxury. The beauty of these designs is that they can be used with a lot of the card stock colours we provide, such as this pale blue to match the illustrations!

Ink Sketching and Ginkgo Leaf Pink Wedding Invitations

Two more premium suites we love are our Ink Sketching and Ginkgo Leaf Pink. Similar to the previous suites, the single colour for the illustrations and text is lovely on the eyes. They create a feeling of sophistication, especially Ink Sketching with its black-tie vibe. We love that they have bold elements but are still simplistic and will compliment whatever text you choose to include.

Big Day Invitation

If you want to focus more on the luxury quality and beautiful colours, our Big Day wedding invitation suite is a match. This suite uses its contrasting fonts and lightweight border to stand out. The small addition of a line-break is the perfect touch for another classy, classic wedding invitation. Just like the previous four suites, this will work with every colour of card we provide!

We hope that this blog has helped relieve any difficult wedding decisions you might be experiencing, but to help further, we’d recommend browsing our Bookblock wedding planners. We have a range of beautiful designs and customisable covers for a personal touch. You can put all your details and decisions into one place to minimise wedding stress!

Bookblock Designers’ Picks: Elegant Wedding Invitations

Posted on August 20, 2021September 28, 2021 by Louise Ashlee

There are endless choices when it comes to wedding invitations. It can be difficult to choose between them all and find the perfect suite that will best suit your wedding. The idea of elegance almost goes hand in hand with weddings, and the idea of elegant wedding invitations can encompass many different styles. We hope that our designers’ picks from our elegant range will help you find the right one for you.

Leaves and Botanical Breeze Wedding Invitations

We know that leaves are a popular feature in wedding invitations for a reason. Our leaves and botanical breeze suites work well in combining botanical themes with elegance and fit both categories perfectly. The almost-white backgrounds contrast beautifully with the darker leaves and highlight their movement, creating the elegant style.

Gold Stems and Traditional Pink Wedding Invitations

Continuing with this simplicity, sometimes small gorgeous flowers at the top of an invitation are all you need. Our gold stems and traditional pink suites will definitely tick the boxes if this is the case. The illustrative flowers compliment the elegant text underneath. They also show that multiple text styles can work, as both the calligraphy and serif styles fit perfectly here. The colours really compliment the idea of elegance too, with the gold text in the gold stems suite and a beautiful pink in the traditional pink suite!

Art Deco Tiles Wedding Invitation

Lastly, we think our art deco tiles suite is a great contribution to our elegant invitation range. The symmetrical line work creates a classy feel, emphasised by the gold and simple font choice. Similar to the previous suites, the white background is a lovely choice here to contrast with this gold. A diamond shape is the very definition of elegance, so we added a smaller diamond motif at the top and bottom.

We hope these picks can help you with your invitation search, and if you’d like to browse more, head over to our elegant wedding invitations range for many more design suites.

Bookblock Designers’ Picks: Rustic Wedding Invitations

Posted on August 18, 2021August 20, 2021 by Louise Ashlee

Picking a wedding invitation that suits your aesthetic is important to help you set the tone for the day. With so much choice, it can be a daunting decision. Rustic is a very popular style of wedding suite and one we are seeing a lot more of in 2021, so our designers have picked out five of their favourite rustic wedding invitations to help you choose.

Watercolour Layers, Sandstone, Watercolour Sketch Wedding Invitations

Looking for an abstract style with neutral tones? Our sandstone, watercolour layers and watercolour sketch suites will be the perfect match. We love the natural, earthy colours and bold brush strokes. The addition of a gold foil effect included in the watercolour layers and sketch suites provides a hint of sparkle. We feel they catch your eye and make bold, but warming invitations for your guests.

Leaves and Stones Wedding Invitation

If you’re wanting to push that natural style further, we would definitely suggest our leaves and stones wedding suite. It’s a wonderful mix of neutral simplistic backgrounds, with bold shapes and leaf stems in richer, rustic colours. The textures emphasise the natural aspects further, giving a luxurious overall effect.

Blush Wedding Invitation

Last but absolutely not least, we love our blush suite. Similar to the leaves and stones, it has a mixed aesthetic of simplicity with a bolder brush stroke as the focus. The pinky colour and petal-like shape give a more floral style, making this a versatile suite that can suit a range of wedding themes. Perfect if you’re not 100% set on your theme yet!
