They found unexpected inspiration in the rich colours and intricate hieroglyphs of the ancient Pharoahs of Egypt. To accent the luxurious gold theme, Vanessa chose Pantone\u2019s colour of the year, marsala. Its deep and emotionally rich colour brought out the passion and romance of the occasion.<\/p><p>The handsketched designs were transferred to screen to digitally create a stunning, intricate laser pocket design that referenced the gold detailing on Vanessa\u2019s wedding gown. With 586 tiny shapes to be precision laser cut, the design was complex, to say the least, but was successfully and stunningly executed to create gorgeous lasercut wedding invitations.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-4.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations 4\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-3.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations 3\" \/><p>The invitations were printed on rich masala paper, and gold foiling was used for the lettering and detailing to achieve a sense of luxury. Each invitation was sheathed in a custom gold-lined envelope that was emblazoned with a wax seal. To add a beautifully personalised touch, the design team fashioned a wedding logo with Vanessa and Jim\u2019s initials, and used it in all the associated wedding stationery.<\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Plated-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-13.jpg\" alt=\"Gold-Plated Lasercut Wedding Invitations 13\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Plated-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-12.jpg\" alt=\"Gold-Plated Lasercut Wedding Invitations 12\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations1.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-11.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations 11\" \/><p>In stunning lasercut gold set off by the passionate hues of marsala, the invitations were a sight to behold. For their finishing touch, the creative team designed a beautiful symbol to represent Vanessa and Jim\u2019s journey of love. A symbol of fortune and purity of spirit, the lotus flower was chosen to mark the blooming of the couple\u2019s love. Luxuriously plated in 14 carats of gold to signify the grandeur of their romance, a beautiful lotus flower was hand applied to each invitation on a gate that was also an enclosure device. <\/p><p>The final wedding invitation suite is a stunning work of craftsmanship that is truly inspiring. The bride expressly wrote in her thanks for Adorn Wedding Invitation\u2019s \u201cextraordinary work in creating such a beautiful piece of art,\u201d and her delight at how much her guests loved their invitations. <\/p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-2.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations 2\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"http:\/\/singaporebrides.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Gold-Lasercut-Wedding-Invitations-9.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Lasercut Wedding Invitations 9\" \/><hr \/><p><i>Adorn Wedding Invitations is located at 483 Green Lanes, London, N134BS, UK.
