Real Letterpress Wedding: Jennifer and Josiah

© Juan Posada

It was a red letter(press) day for Jennifer and Josiah when they married in Malibu, California. The bride and groom designed their letterpress invitations themselves. The swirls of the letterpress wedding invitation hint at the swirls in the gorgeous stained glass of the Stauffer Chapel at Pepperdine University. Rarely do we get one color letterpress requests here at Joie Studio, but for this wedding, there was only one color of any importance: red! There was no need for the bride and groom to add in a second color as the red was beautifully accented by the cerulean blue of the gorgeous stained glass of the chapel and then with the gorgeous turquoise blue of the Pacific Ocean! In the Japanese tradition, brides fold 1001 paper cranes for their wedding day, and as you can see in the picture, the couple did an admirable job incorporating the tradition into the decor for the intimate reception.
