Pretty Cool Weddings

THE BEST OF

This Isn’t Just Another Wedding 

Everything about your relationship is unique, and your correspondence should be too. Fig. 2 Design Studio is with you right from the get-go — so what if your fiancé lives for bold color, and you prefer a little more sophisticated femininity? All we see are soft curves, clean typography, and texture for days. Matisse meets Zimmermann, if you will. 

Combine your love story with our good taste, and we’ll send out save the dates that delight, invitations that excite, and day-of stationery that adds just the right touch. 

Make Sure Your Guests Get the Memo

Here Come the Waves

Inspired by ocean waves, this suite was 30 passes through different presses. From letterpress to blind embossing, die cutting to foil stamping, the end result was a work of art.

Summer Kind of Colorful

Meredith and Nate's love of color was nothing short of inspiration. A fun custom pattern made of icons that symbolized their story was brought to life in color.

A Black and White Affair

Inspired by the bride's family home, modern minimalism reigned supreme. Triple thick stock, letterpress printing, and edge painting mixed with pops of geometric patterns.

All That Shimmers

We had her at Brush Stroke. Maddie took one look at our brush stroke pattern swatch and said “I want my wedding to be this.” Pearl and gunmetal foil stamping mixed with letterpress, kept things sleek and clean.

It's A Mod, Mod World

When the wedding planner described the aesthetic as “Mad Men meets West Elm” we went mad for mod. Most epic? The escort wall our industrial design dreams are made of.

And It Was All Chartreuse

A couple who travels the world for dinner reservations? Why wouldn't we base the design on their favorite restaurants in Paris? Custom matchbooks and super thick book-cloth bound menus made even more special by a custom logo. We don't just brand businesses, we brand events.

The Spy Wore Jewel Tones

French Vogue meets James Bond meets Dutch Masters. Custom velvet dossiers, brass clips, and gold foil made this a jewel box suite.

The Moody Blues

When the couple's friend is an insanely talented abstract artist, you call in a favor and bring in something so special that no one will ever be able to duplicate. Velvet menus and foil stamped modern-deco typography let the artwork shine.

She Kissed a Girl

Ferris wheels? As menus? Groundbreaking.
I say it all the time: when clients trust their vendors and vendors trust each other, magic happens. Throw in some snakeskin, letterpress, and gold foil and you've got the coolest stationery for the coolest women.

Claudia’s special sauce is her ability to capture the essence of the project in whatever she’s designing. Her attention to detail is incredible, and her combination of creativity and organization is unparalleled. Claudia’s super fun to work with and she’s crazy talented, so she’s going to be a fit for just about anyone really. Unless you’re looking for something basic and boring, then you shouldn’t call her.

I’m not exaggerating when I say that working with Claudia has hands down been the best part of the wedding process. Claudia spent the time to really get to know us, she took all of those elements to heart and made us this custom pattern that’s insane. Our invitations just went out, and everyone keeps messaging telling us how personal and unique they are!

I adore working with Fig. 2 because the schedule is clear, the understanding and direction of the product is well established and the willingness to think outside the box is exciting!
