Vintage wedding invitations
A vintage invitation sealed with wax and set in old-style type
Vintage can mean a grandmother’s engraved card or a candlelit hall. Ivory Letterpress gives you the first: hairline rules, a monogram crest and a wax seal that cracks open. Midnight Velvet in its Ivory velvet mode gives you the second, with gold-leaf frames and a cello score.
Both carry the whole wedding: every event, your story, the wedding party, a gallery with captions and a link to your film, travel notes and an RSVP.

Tips for your vintage invitation
- Old photos look lovely in the gallery. Add a caption with the year; it also becomes the alt text for screen readers.
- A film link (YouTube or Vimeo) opens on the platform, so it never slows the page down.
- Traditional wording reads best with full names: choose the “full names” display style.
Questions couples ask
Which designs work for a vintage wedding?
Ivory Letterpress, a wax-sealed envelope in Ivory or the darker Candlelit mode, and Midnight Velvet in its Ivory velvet mode, with gold-leaf frames and a cello score. You can try both with your names before you pay.
Can I include old family photos?
Yes. Add them to the gallery with a caption, such as the year and who is in it. The caption also becomes the alt text that screen readers announce. You can add up to 30 photos.
Can I link to our wedding film?
Yes. Paste a YouTube or Vimeo link; it opens on that platform, so the invitation itself stays fast.
Can I mail printed invitations as well?
Yes. Download the QR code from your dashboard and print it on the card: it opens the same invitation, so paper guests get the schedule, directions and RSVP too.
