Inspired by Instyle magazine’s feature on Anne Hathaway wearing a romantic Bottega Veneta dress, we created these stylish wedding invitations featuring a band of royal purple satin, the top hue in our latest wedding color poll. We used the Jet Black heavyweight background card and white overlay printed with a vintage monogram ($14 for a book and cd of 812 ornate letters from Formal-Invitations.com), wrapped with a delicate Unryu sash and Royal Purple satin belly band. We like the vintage illustration paired with a the modern clean lines, and the price at only $1.02 each, with 100% recycled envelope from http://www.formal-invitations.com
