As we reflect on the past year here at Heather Paperie, we are filled with joy and appreciation for every single couple who invited us into their wedding planning journey. Designing wedding invitations is a privilege we don’t take lightly. Your stories, your celebrations, and your visions inspired everything we created at Heather Paperie in 2025. To wrap up the year, we’ve gathered a few of our favorite suites and moments from 2025 to share with you. Each suite was created with care, inspired by the couples and celebrations we had the honor of serving. Scroll on to see some of our highlights from the year!
Our Favorite Wedding Invitation Designs of 2025
Classic Wedding Invitations
Classic style is at the core of our work. Many of our couples were planning formal, black-tie weddings at manors or estates. They were dreaming of invitations that wowed their guests while setting the tone for an unforgettable day. The classic wedding invitation suites we created featured similar design elements:
- Specialty printing—letterpress or foil press
- Custom monogram
- Silk ribbon
- Elegant script font
- Venue illustration
Each one felt classic, but still entirely customized to the couple behind it. It was so hard to choose, but take a look at just a few of our favorites!

Coastal-Inspired Wedding Invitations
A few of our favorite suites this year were inspired by the coast. We designed one for a wedding on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and the other for an elopement along the coast of Scotland. Each design pulled from the natural tones and textures of the venue’s surroundings. At the same time, they still held onto the structure and formality Heather Paperie couples are drawn to. The coastal-inspired wedding invitation suites we created featured similar design elements:
- Custom crest featuring natural elements
- Organic script font
- Luxurious silk ribbon
- Envelope liner with a coastal scene

Romantic Wedding Invitations
Finally, we had the chance to design several romantic suites this year that let us lean into softness. Think flowing script, delicate layering, and floral envelope liners. These invitations felt deeply personal, with details chosen to reflect the tone of each celebration. Many of these romantic weddings took place in gardens or countryside estates. The romantic wedding invitation suites we created featured similar design elements:
- Watercolor floral artwork
- Organic, flowing script font
- Soft pastel color palette
- Delicate floral envelope liner
We could not get enough of this color! See more from this enchanting lilac theme wedding.

Heather Paperie 2025 Branding Photos
We would be remiss if we didn’t mention one of our favorite Heather Paperie moments from 2025: stepping in front of the camera for a branding shoot with Kelsey Renee Photography! Many of the images you see on our website, Pinterest, and Instagram focus on the couples we design for (and rightly so!). However, this shoot gave us the chance to also document the team behind Heather Paperie — the people, the process, and the hands that bring each suite to life. These images captured the heart of how we work and why we love it.

Looking Ahead to 2026
Looking back on 2025, we feel incredibly grateful here at Heather Paperie. We’re grateful for the couples who trusted us, the talented vendors we collaborated with, and the moments of creativity that reminded us why we do what we do. 2025 gave us the chance to design for weddings across the world, from local historic estates to coastal venues, and even a French château. Each one had its own story to tell.
Now, we’re turning our attention to what’s next. Every couple brings something new to the process, and we can’t wait to see what’s ahead. If you’re planning a wedding and want invitations that feel elegant and true to your story, we’d love to start the conversation.
