Green Invitation Ideas

As seen in Modern Bride magazine, according to Simon Doonan, creative director of Barneys New York, the socialite bride wants the chicest wedding on earth! Our stylish Tiffany Blue wedding invitations would be perfect and starts with handmade paper embedded with silky fibers in deep rich shade of blue-green. The crisp white overlay is attached using a chic aquamarine jewel brad for a little sparkle…the price is even perfect, at only 90¢ each with envelope.

Simon Doonan, creative director of Barneys New York, defined his existentialist bride in Modern Bride magazine as someone who loves the unexpected. We put together a non-traditional, unique wedding invitations using distinctive colors and modern fine paper sash. The kiwi green background card and white overlay were used and wrapped in a beautiful hand-marbled paper sash in rich shades of plum, teal, pink and metallic gold, …because they are made by hand, each sash is different. High on style, but low on price for only 94¢ each, including envelope.

Instyle magazine featured rich and dramatic hues of green shown in the latest fashions. This inspired us to put together a couple of green wedding invitations featuring Kelly and Emerald green. Our brand new Kelly green grosgrain belt and brass buckle is paired with with our metallic gold background card for only $1.02 including envelope. Of course our sparkling Emerald jewel brad fits right in with the Onxy black background card for an amazing 62¢ each with envelope.

Wedding Leaf Motif

September 15, 2008


We saw these great fall wedding favors at Beau-Coup.com and thought our Olive green wedding invitations complimented the theme. A natural skeleton leaf was tucked into a translucent unryu sash embedded with gold threads for a little sparkle. The Olive green card, white overlay and envelope are all made from 100% post consumer fibers, making it an earthy-friendly invitation at a down to earth price of only 98¢ each, complete with envelope.


We are forecasting pale green as a hot color for spring wedding invitations based on NY Magazine’s 100 Most Fabulous Looks from Fashion Week. This elegant hue ranges from bright lime to pale, muted shades. Shown from the top right, we took our Celedon card and wrapped it with our romantic floral Lace belt for 94¢, next is our Vintage Leaves that we printed on a heavy 100# card made from 100% post consumer fibers and fastened a translucent vellum overlay with a sparkling Peridot jewel brad for only 86¢ each. The wedding invitation shown in the background is our new Pistachio card, which is a creamy gray-green, and paired it with another new gold jacquard belt for a sophisticated and glamorous touch at an affordable 94¢ each. Finally our Lime card, which is embedded with light sparkles, is fastened to the vellum with a easy peel and stick Pearl faux wax seal for only 99¢ each. Our wax seals look like the real thing, but are more durable and much easier to use than hot wax. All prices for green wedding invitations above include the background card, printable overlay, embellishment and envelope.
