Victoria and Nicholas’s wedding invitation suite was a masterpiece of classic elegance, inspired by the historic beauty of their venue, the National Shrine of St. Rita of Cascia in Philadelphia. Every detail of this custom stationery suite was designed to reflect the grandeur of the location while maintaining a timeless, sophisticated aesthetic. With touches of gold foil, rich burgundy accents, and personalized elements, this suite set the stage for a truly unforgettable celebration.
At the heart of the invitation was a custom illustration of the National Shrine of St. Rita of Cascia, highlighted in shimmering gold foil. The venue illustration, paired with the bride and groom’s names in matching gold foil, created a striking contrast against the crisp black letterpress used for the rest of the wedding details. This luxurious combination of gold and black lent an air of refinement to the suite, capturing the historic beauty and elegance of the Philadelphia venue.
To complement the classic black and gold, Victoria and Nicholas chose deep burgundy envelopes, addressed in beautiful white ink hand calligraphy. The contrast of the elegant script against the rich color added a touch of drama, hinting at the timeless romance of their wedding day. Inside, the envelopes were lined with vintage floral artwork, adding a layer of softness and a nod to traditional artistry. The color palette was carefully curated, bringing together warm, rich hues that created a feeling of old-world charm with a modern twist.
The invitation suite was full of thoughtful touches that elevated the entire presentation. The RSVP envelope was stamped with a gold foil detail, adding a cohesive touch of luxury. Each invitation was wrapped in a delicate vellum fold, sealed with a custom wax stamp in gold—a perfect combination of tradition and elegance. These finishing elements weren’t just decorative—they were meaningful details that tied the suite together, reflecting the couple’s sophisticated taste.
