Brooklyn Botanic Garden Invitation

Kristen & Nick

With the couples’ wedding taking place at the lovely Palmhouse at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, we decided to incorporate their location on the save the date and invitation in a classic engraved illustration style. The save the date is foil stamped with gold on luxury aubergine paper while the invitation is letterpress printed on cream paper, accented by purple edge painting and hand calligraphy on the bellyband and envelope.

Since we are a studio specializing in custom work, we put together custom pricing for each project. For your convenience, below is a brief summary of the starting prices for both our collection and custom suites:

• $2,000 is the starting price for pre-existing designs for a 4-piece suite in 1-letterpress color. Suites with additional embellishments such as foil stamping, laser cut sleeves, pocket folders, etc. start at a higher price point of $3,000 and up.

• Custom invitations start at $2,750 for a 4-piece suite in 1-letterpress color.

• For budgets in the $1,000 range, many of our designs can be adapted to a economical price point using flat printing.

Note: A 4-piece suite includes Invitation, Reply Card, Outer Envelope and Reply Envelope. However a suite can be customized to your needs. Most pre-existing designs you see, whether it be from our custom page or collection page, can be made into a ready to order set

We invite you to explore our inspiration and moodboard for how this Brooklyn Botanic Garden wedding invitation design came to fruition. You’re also welcome to view our creative process to dig deeper into our exclusive design process.

Gotham Inspiration

Sketches

We started the process by sketching a few different invitation suite designs. We explored a few illustration options ranging from New York City views to more specifically Brooklyn and Brooklyn Botanic Garden inspired views. Since the wedding was taking place at a botanical garden, we were also keen on incorporating botanical and floral illustrations throughout.

Monograms

No design is ever complete without a unique monogram which is the centerpiece of the invitation suite. We explored a variety of monograms ranging from classic to more contemporary styles.

Design Extension

Once we established the look and feel of the invitation card, we started designing other pieces in the invitation suite. The reply cards and envelopes were either inspired by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden or by botanical illustrations.

Refinements

At the end of the process, we make sure that all the details are considered and that the design can be printed perfectly. We also engineer all the components of the suite (like the bellyband below) to work seamlessly together.
