How things have changed over the last 100 years re wedding invitations. Modern weddings have changed from what used to be quite modest family affairs.
While visiting family, I browsed some very old photos and came across these old wedding initiations which were smaller than a modern day iphone.
The printing was beautifully done with embossed raised detail & cut out shapes.
All three invitations together - modest yet striking
It was very interesting to look back over changes in just the last 100 years.

Love the 1902 elegance! This is such a treasure! These days we do things a little less grand would you say? I even wonder if you had the $$ if such a thing could be replicated in this day and age? Is this letter press?
ReplyDeleteI agree Lynda - it is so elegant & they are so tiny but perfectly formed. I can only imagine that they were quite costly at the time! Thanks for stopping by again & taking the time to leave a comment ….
