About this collection
Every invitation here is assembled by hand in our Lucknow studio, meaning no two wax seals or ribbon bows look exactly identical. We work with 300 GSM textured cardstock, so your guests feel the quality the moment they open the envelope. If you are choosing these for a wedding, we recommend finalizing your guest count at least a month early to allow for the manual assembly of each piece.
We approach every card as a small work of art. Our process centers on the tactile experience. We use thick 300 GSM paper, which provides a satisfying weight, and wrap it in translucent vellum to create that first layer of mystery. The final touch, our signature wax seal and silk ribbon, adds that essential nazakat (delicacy) we are known for.
Many couples come to us wanting a balance between modern minimalism and Indian tradition. We achieve this by using clean typography alongside motifs like lotus or peacock, or by keeping the color palette soft with whites, creams, and sage greens. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a large celebration, these invitations serve as a keepsake.
Since each set involves manual folding, gluing, and sealing, the process is slower than mass-printed options. We focus on getting the details right, from the exact tone of the ribbon to the crispness of the gold foil. If you have a specific color theme or a family motif you want to incorporate, let us know. We enjoy integrating personal elements into these designs.
