UNIQUE WEDDING INVITATIONS IN PAPER AND WOOD

Behind the scenes…

Just for fun, I am posting some photos that give you a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes here at Oslo Press. As you will see, these only involve the printing side of things. So, I will have to do a follow-up in the future that includes the engraving as well. Below is a stack of wedding programs hot off the press. This only shows you a tiny portion of our 1960’s Heidelberg Windmill.

Next is a detail of the same programs after being scored and folded. This is an example of a blind impression – where an impression is made without the use of ink. In this case, we wanted to add a bit of detail to the programs so that they coordinated nicely with the invitations and other elements. At the same time, we wanted to keep it subtle… I think they turned out lovely.

Below you see 130 programs – all bound and ready to be packed for shipping!

This job also included favor tags, escort cards, and table cards. The couple chose Willow with Pearl White paper and a deep custom-blended aubergine ink. Here is a detail shot of the favor tags:

Last but certainly not least… Oslo pulling his weight around here. Okay, so maybe that only consists of napping, eating his fair share of food, and providing endless amounts of cuteness and entertainment. We like to think that is more than sufficient.

    We absolutely love our invitations and so do all of our guests! They’re beautiful and so different from any others we’ve seen.

    Thank you!

    It’s fab to have a studio cat. You should submit OSLO on Your Studio Mascot!
