A hand-drawn bistro invitation. Oxblood and cream, handwritten names on a card over a diamond checkerboard, typewriter text, ink doodles, polaroid photos and a striped awning over the RSVP.
Modern minimalist, in black and white. Your names in wide, airy capitals over a calligraphy line, a monogram in an oval and a white-bordered print. Then the city after dark behind your story, the day set like a menu, script headings set at an angle, a photo-booth strip tucked in an envelope and a charcoal RSVP.
Soft, warm and handwritten. Your initials and a little menu over a band of your photo, with your names in a fine, airy script and an outlined RSVP. Then a warm welcome with a terracotta button, your story on a frosted card over a full-width photo with a few hand-drawn hearts, and the day in three columns under small hand-drawn icons.
A letterpress invitation in black and white. Your names in tall engraved capitals between bands of blind-embossed lace, an oval-framed photo, a photo-booth strip, the day set like a printed card and a torn-paper RSVP held with a paperclip.
A secret garden after dusk. Your names in fine engraved capitals over a dark lakeside photo, under a dotted oval monogram. Then a cream band trimmed in lace with your story and a portrait in a gilded oval frame, the day over an old Dutch flower painting, and an oxblood RSVP set on a lace doily.
A postcard from somewhere by the sea. Your names in loose, looping handwriting with a brushed underline, over your photo framed as a big rust postage stamp beside a little pressed-flower stamp. Then your story tucked into an envelope on a full-width photo of the place, an RSVP with a postmark, the day on postcards and the travel notes paper-clipped over the sky.
An heirloom in sepia. Copperplate names over a toned photo, a love letter framed in lace on dark walnut, the day drawn in fine line pictures, and a wax-sealed RSVP card in an ornate oval frame.
A period-drama keepsake box. Your names on a cartouche card tucked against a sage envelope with a wax seal, a photo-booth strip, burgundy blocks with the day in fine line drawings, prints and stamps, and plum petal cards for the gifts.
Black-and-white film, caught mid-stride. Your initials as a flourished monogram over a full-screen photo streaked with a slow-shutter motion blur, a framed print beside a script “You’re invited” on ivory, a countdown in tall old-style numerals across a band of your own photo, and the day set beside one word in large capitals.
Quiet, black and white and full of air. Your initials in a fine oval, your names in light roman capitals around a calligraphy ampersand, then three tall photos side by side. A welcome letter with a flourished first letter and a handwritten sign-off, and your story set like a page of a book.
An old book of landscape paintings. Your names in a flourished copperplate over a painted valley, then pages of soft paper with filigree corners, typewritten words and photos held down with tape and wax seals. The day on a bracket-shaped card over an oil painting, and a reply card beside an open envelope lined with a painted sky.
Dreamy, pastel and storybook. Your names in a flowing copperplate script over a misty photo, then a welcome inside a frame of watercolour wildflowers. The day is set on a scalloped lilac doily held by a brass clip over a field of cosmos, where to stay on a lace-edged card over sage, and the RSVP is a lilac envelope lined with flowers and closed with a blush wax seal.
