Elevating Your Wedding Vision

 

Your wedding invitation is the first glimpse guests get of your celebration, and it sets the tone for everything to come. In a year when personalization and artistry are key trends, the Katherine Collection stands out for its timeless elegance, hand-painted watercolor elements, and bespoke crest design. For couples who want a refined, romantic, and custom touch, this collection delivers.

A Collection Rooted in Place and Personality

At the heart of the Katherine Collection is a commitment to showcasing where you're getting married. Each suite features a hand-painted watercolor of your venue, elegantly printed on the envelope liner and prominently displayed on the save the date. It’s not just an invitation—it’s a way to build excitement for the destination of your wedding and create a keepsake your guests will remember.

 

Unlike other designs where the venue illustration is optional, this suite is centered around it. It’s made for couples who want their venue to be more than just a location—they want it to be part of the story.

A Crest for Every Couple

Another standout of the Katherine Collection? The customizable crest. We offer eight different crest styles, each designed to suit a wide range of wedding aesthetics:

 

 

  • Katherine Crest: A timeless, classic design with a neutral palette that suits nearly every couple

 

  • Coastal Crescent Crest: Hydrangeas bloom around a rattan-textured shield—perfect for East Coast weddings in Nantucket or the Hamptons

 

  • Prep Crest: Blue and white hydrangeas with a signature ribbon make this a go-to for preppy, garden-inspired celebrations

 

  • Joy Crest: A colorful burst of wildflowers for couples who want to lean into vibrant, joyful details

 

 

Whether you're romantic, coastal, colorful, or classic, there's a crest that fits your vibe perfectly—and it will be hand-painted just for you.

Thoughtful Upgrades That Elevate

 

For couples looking to add an even more elevated touch, the Katherine Collection offers the option to upgrade to letterpress printing. The texture and depth of this method bring a tangible sophistication to your suite that digital printing simply can’t replicate.

 

It’s a luxurious detail that adds weight—literally and figuratively—to your stationery.

The Signature Gatefold: An Elegant Surprise

 

One of the most beloved and exclusive elements of the Katherine suite is the custom gatefold enclosure. This isn’t just a wrap—it’s an experience. The front features a die-cut illustration of your personalized crest, securing the suite closed with a sense of ceremony and refinement.

 

When guests open the gatefold, they’re greeted by the full wedding suite nestled inside—creating a moment of beauty and anticipation before they even read a word.

The Full Suite: Save the Dates, Invitations & More

Why Couples and Planners Love the Katherine Collection

 

Brides love it for the artistic personalization. Wedding planners love it because it’s flexible, professional, and always makes an impression. It’s classic without being boring, custom without being fussy, and romantic without being too soft.
