As invitation designers, we have the joy of helping couples tell their story through paper. And every now and then, I get the chance to create for a wedding that perfectly balances elegance with playful spirit—like this unforgettable celebration at Canyonwood Ridge for Lizzie and Chris!
We started with a color palette that echoed the Hill Country landscape in late spring: soft ivory and shades of green.. To elevate the design, we added a custom watercolor venue illustration for the top of their invitation card. We also added a coordinating Mid Green envelope liner and belly band and antique gold wax seal. The result was a suite that felt natural yet sophisticated and fun!
The main invitation was printed on thick, double-ply cotton paper using digital flat print in a soft gold ink. We paired a classic serif typeface with romantic calligraphy for the couple’s names. The layout was formal but not stuffy—think timeless, with a little wink.
Designing invitations for Lizzie and Chris’s wedding was about more than paper—it was about giving guests a first look into the experience the couple had planned. Sophisticated, joyful, and thoughtfully detailed, every piece we created reflected the love and excitement surrounding their big day.
