Black Wedding Invitations with Gothic Detailing

There’s something undeniably powerful about black wedding invitations. Bold, elegant, and quietly dramatic — they set the tone for a celebration that’s anything but ordinary. For Hamid and Christie’s wedding, we designed invitations that balance modern minimalism with a whisper of old-world romance.

Printed on rich black handmade paper, each invitation features delicate gothic borders — blind letterpressed for a subtle, sculptural detail that catches the light just so. The foil lettering adds a contemporary edge, creating contrast and clarity without overpowering the design. It's where old meets new, classic meets current — a style we love to return to.

To complement the suite, we wrapped each invitation in translucent vellum envelopes sealed with a custom khaki green wax seal. It’s that tactile experience — the tear of a deckled edge, the feel of thick paper in your hand — that elevates the moment of opening.

Whether you’re planning a black-tie city wedding, a moody manor gathering, or simply want to step away from the expected, this suite was designed for those who seek beauty in contrast — modern, sculptural, and quietly poetic.

Looking for something similar? We love creating custom suites that reflect your vision — gothic, modern, romantic, or anything in between.
