Custom Invitations for a Special Bat Mitzvah

This project is a lovely example of custom Bat Mitzvah invitations. A key element of the invitation is the custom gatefold design, which provides a reveal effect. Vibrant, eye-catching colors of pink and teal were chosen, along with a subtle sea-foam green. These guided the choice of paper and ribbon. Satin ribbon, sparkling gems and shimmer envelopes were the finishing touches, once everything had been printed and assembled.

By going over the details with Gali and her mom, Yael, along with event planner Catherine Bachelier, early on, I was able to clearly visualize how the different elements of the invitation would come together. Along with Gali’s favorite colors, it was also important to include parchment paper in the design, as Gali and Yael wanted the suite to provide a nod to the beauty of the Torah scroll. Gali’s grandmother would be providing Gali’s name in Hebrew, by way of her own hand-drawn calligraphy, which I was able to turn into digital art in order to be printed on the parchment paper (for the gatefold flaps). In order to achieve the torn edges effect for the front of the gatefold, I obtained a special ruler to tear each strip of printed parchment paper by hand, so that the individual strips containing Gali’s Hebrew name would appear diagonally aligned in a specific way (as seen in the slideshow above). These custom Bat Mitzvah invitations had just the right balance of color, sophistication, sparkle and fun to reflect Gali’s effervescent personality and her special day.

There are four cards included in the suite: invitation card and lined envelope, RSVP postcard, party card and envelope, as well as a folded thank you card and envelope. There is also a digital save the date that was sent out electronically.

Another recent custom wedding invitation suite I worked on is this one, for easygoing couple Sarah and Joel. They are an active, young couple that has long enjoyed Southern California and all it has to offer, including the opportunity to hold their wedding ceremony and festivities just across the border in Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico. The special occasion was to take place at Encuentro Guadalupe, known for its modern eco-lofts and resort amenities. I worked mainly with event planner Catherine Bachelier to come up with invitation ideas that would coincide with the wedding and related events: colorful floral arrangements were to be a common thread and focal point. Knowing the theme, I researched and pulled together corresponding image options, and then used them to create some layouts for the couple to review. It didn’t take long for Sarah to gravitate toward the invitation suite pictured here. In particular, the colors and variety of the floral images spoke to her and what she had in mind for the wedding, which was to be a celebration of marriage, with nature’s beauty as the joyful backdrop.

Due to the number of details and special shuttle arrangements that needed to be conveyed to the guests attending, the couple appreciated how seamlessly the invitation suite incorporated all the necessary information, in separate, yet visually corresponding, cards. Much like Jamie and Luke’s invitation suite, we were able to clearly present quite a bit of text, by breaking it up into separate cards that were digestible, one by one, by the recipients. One card led to the next card, each one having a distinct purpose and category related to the event.

There are five individual cards included in this suite: invitation card and lined envelope; RSVP card and envelope; information (“Where to Stay”) card; itinerary (“Welcome”) card; and flat thank you card and envelope. All designs are pictured in the slideshow above.
