Today I came across this unique ”letterpress” boutique shop (Bella Figura) that prints, amongst other things, wedding invitations. The shop is quite unique in that it uses old-fashion printing machines with antique cast-iron presses to add a special old-fashion touch with fine artistic calligraphy. In keeping with the theme of “green” decisions from my earlier entry, the shop is 100% wind-powered and carbon neutral. It also supports the environment by donating 1% of its sales to the “1% for the Planet” cause.
Following are some wedding invitation samples:

The “Printemps” design (btw, “printemps” means “spring” in French):
