The invitation — laurel monogram above the couple's names, with a hand-drawn portrait of Villa Lucente and its gardens

The Invitation

Handmade Cotton · Deckled Edges · Letterpress & Gold

The laurel monogram crowns the announcement, and a hand-drawn portrait of Villa Lucente grounds it—the villa your guests will stand in, rendered in sepia before they ever arrive. Names set in quiet Roman capitals; the date written out in full, as it should be.

Two envelopes — one open to reveal an illustrated liner of the estate, one sealed in gold wax with a script B

The Envelope

Illustrated Liner · Gold Wax Seal

The first thing guests touch. Inside, the estate unfolds across the liner in engraving-style detail; outside, the seal carries a single initial in gold wax—pressed by hand, never perfectly round.

The reply card — Kindly Reply in gold foil, with engraved entrée marks for beef, fish, and vegetarian

The Reply Card

Gold-Foil Header · Entrée Marks

Kindly Reply, in foil. Entrée choices are marked by tiny engravings—the ox, the fish, the olive branch—so even the smallest decision feels considered. A blind-embossed sprig rests in the corner, felt more than seen.

The details card — a weekend itinerary with spot illustrations: olive sprig, columns, cypress lane, and bay branch

The Details Card

Weekend Itinerary · Spot Illustrations

A weekend, told in order: welcome dinner, wedding day, farewell brunch—each with its own small drawing, from olive sprig to cypress lane, and the couple’s website set quietly at the foot.

The menu — Primi, Secondi, and Dolci beneath the laurel wreath, with the terrace balustrade and urn drawn at the base

The Menu

Primi · Secondi · Dolci

Courses divided by gold flourishes and crowned with the laurel wreath; at the base, the terrace balustrade and urn carry the eye out over the garden, as the evening will.
