Lovely and Fresh INK+WIT Wedding Invitations

by Jennifer on March 13, 2013

I’ve been a fan of INK+WIT for years now, and this shop just keeps getting better and better, with a wider range of product offerings, not to mention some beautiful stationary choices for your green wedding.

wedding invitations, green invitations, eco wedding invitations, letterpress, custom wedding

Tara Hogan, the design genius behind INK+WIT has a fresh outlook and notes that the main goal of INK+WIT is to, “Collaborate closely with clients [while helping to] solve the design problem with informative objectives and heartfelt intelligence.”

Although I think it’s always greener to go paper-free with your wedding invites, that’s just not a reality for many couples, so your next goal should be beautiful, but more sustainable paper products. Luckily, Hogan’s products may fit your need perfectly. Her goodies are often made of materials such as repurposed wood, 100% post consumer recycled paper and 100% cotton paper made from recovered tree-free fibers.

Her wedding invitations are fresh, pretty and simple, yet elegant. Also, sweetly unique. Your invites could be one of a kind if you go the custom route (custom orders are welcome). You can contact INK+WIT to get your hands on a full ready-made look-book and pricing as well.
