Burgundy Wedding Invitations: 10 Elegant Examples
We’ve gathered these 10 elegant examples in pretty “vintage”-inspired styles! Good luck choosing one because they’re all gorgeous!
Such a unique blend of rustic wood-grain cardstock, graceful gold calligraphy and a rich burgundy envelope in this invitation suite by Real Card Studio, via Wedding Lovely.
This invitation set from Wordshop Paperie features modern-style calligraphy rendered in gold foil on soft ivory stock. Great trendy vibe, with a touch of burgundy via the envelope liner.
Here, burgundy calligraphy combines with a graceful gold-foil leafy border to create a more traditional vintage look. A lovely design from Paisley Quill.
Bold gold-foil fonts pop against contrasting white and burgundy cards and envelopes, giving a modern vibe to this invitation set from AP Design Co.
Sweeping calligraphy in burgundy-colored ink dominates this Lauren invitation suite from Jupiter and Juno. Having the font “bleed” beyond the card margins creates a striking effect.
This lovely “Pure Romance” wedding invitation suite from Wedding Paper Divas features shaped cards in rich burgundy and grey marbled cardstock, with the foil printing available in 4 colors including gold.
Love the romance of this botanical-inspired stationery set from Paper & Poste via Wed Luxe. The bold rose design on the envelope liner and paper band plays up the burgundy hue perfectly.
Believe it or not, these save-the-dates are DIY! See the great tutorial over at Oh So Beautiful Paper, showing how a luxe effect is created using gold embossing powder on the stamped calligraphy. While the cool envelope liner is made with gold-dotted kraft paper!
This invitation from Laura Hooper Calligraphy (via Wedding Chicks) makes us think of a vineyard in Tuscany. Just look at that impeccable gold calligraphy on wine-colored paper!
Amazing jewel tones grace this suite by Kristara, featured on Grey Likes Weddings (image by Awake Photography). The formal burgundy is softened with watercolor effects in magenta and blue, as background to gold calligraphy.
