Planning a romantic celebration under the Italian sun? This invitation suite was made with destination “I do’s” in mind, especially if you’re dreaming of terracotta rooftops, olive groves and sun-washed villas.

This collection features digital print on ivory handmade paper, soft watercolour illustrations and a delicate cream puff ribbon bow for an effortlessly elegant finish.

A little slice of Tuscany in an envelope

The main invitation is framed by a hand-painted watercolour scene inspired by the hills of Tuscany – think warm terracotta roofs, soft greenery and hazy summer light. It sets the tone immediately: relaxed, romantic and a little bit luxe, without feeling formal or fussy.

Each piece is printed onto ivory cotton paper with naturally deckled edges. The texture of the handmade paper gives the artwork a painterly, fine-art feel and makes every card feel like a keepsake.

Digital print on handmade paper

This suite uses high-quality digital printing, which means:

• Beautiful crisp text and artwork
  
• A more budget-friendly option than traditional letterpress
  
• The freedom to include full-colour watercolour illustrations
  

The result is a tactile, artisanal invitation that still feels light, modern and perfect for destination weddings where you might be ordering larger quantities or working with international postage.

Finished with a cream puff ribbon bow

For an extra layer of romance, the details card stack is wrapped in a soft cream puff ribbon and tied in a loose bow. The frayed edges of the ribbon echo the deckled edges of the paper, adding texture and movement.

You can style your suite in a few different ways:

• Tie the ribbon around the full stack for a beautiful unwrapping moment
  
• Use shorter lengths of ribbon for menus or order of service covers
  
• Pair the ribbon with a wax seal on your outer envelopes for a more formal look
