BOOKLET PROGRAMS

This will be the final post on the Nichelle & Reed wedding, they married on September 29th. I'd like to share the booklet programs that completed their beautiful wedding stationery package. Here they are in various stages of production: print. score. fold. collate. punch. tie. repeat.

And here they are complete... wrapped with an elegant vellum overlay, bound with natural hemp cord, and then securely closed with a petite tab using their custom sunflower and mason jar image.

A close up photo of the petite tab shows you how it looked wrapped around onto the back of the program. Love. Love. Love.

It all comes down to this... everything is packaged up and I'm ready to meet Nichelle with all of her wedding day goodies: booklet programs, table numbers, cocktail napkins, dinner menus and a few extra favor tags.

"V" IS FOR VELLUM

Vellum is translucent paper that comes in a variety of weights, colors and prints. I keep vellum in stock at the studio because I spec it as an understated detail on invitations that ultimately adds elegance and purpose. And as a graphic designer, that's important to me.

"V" IS FOR VELLUM

The large photo in the collage above incorporates vellum as a loose overlay and adds to the overall romance, yet protects the formal invitation from the wax seal during mailing. I like to use vellum in booklet invitations as a soft spoken first (and last) page. The middle invitation includes a heavy-weight vellum sleeve (visualize an office folder) that keeps the invitation pieces together inside the envelope... and believe me, your guests will appreciate the thought when they open your invitation. And finally, I printed on light-weight vellum for the scroll and tag on the message in a bottle invitation.
