We know the city elopement imagery well. The couple gets ready in a hipster design hotel in downtown New York, LA, London, or Paris…there are some intimate moments in front of city hall, a stylish walk to their favorite coffee shop, bakery, or pizza place…some laughter, some kisses, a few amused onlookers, great sunglasses, and inevitably, two sidewalk-served pretty coupes of champagne.
But now its time for something a little different. Moody and dramatic landscapes, verdant autumnal florals, all the warm and woody shades of terracotta, and just enough wind to blow you back into the pages of Wuthering Heights. There is something decidedly romantic and cinematic about this elopement in the Scottish Highlands, (in what was once the holiday home of Constance Spry), and yet all the details are strikingly modern, minimal, and right on trend.
A little sip of scotch in Ferm Living’s ripple glasses, Kamperett’s iconic wrap around Adelaide gown, Laure de Sagazan’s romantic angora gilet, Moss Floral’s effortlessly composed Ikebana-inspired bouquet, and our most minimal stationery collection, The Curator, offering all the white space, blind embossing, vellum layers, and soft nude tones to complement and balance out the richly verdant landscape and moody color palette. All this captured by one of our favorite wedding photographers, Taylor and Porter, on 35mm film.
Scroll down, fall in love, and discover this dramatic yet simple way to say I Do.

The Letterist featured in VOGUE Australia
Thrilled to share these images of Holly&Shaun’s 50s-style Chateau wedding recently featured in VOGUE Australia. Holly opted for our sophisticated and minimal collection, The Editor in an understated monochrome palette of ivory, black, warm grey and vellum. The square ceremony invitation was letterpress printed with the large text subtly blind debossed, and finer details in charcoal grey letterpress on 710gsm Pur Coton Absinthe. The details were digitally printed on translucent vellum, and the RSVP was foil stamped in gold on warm grey. Their return address was also foil stamped in gold on our signature heavyweight ribbed-texture envelopes. Save the Dates, also from The Editor collection, were printed in charcoal grey letterpress on warm grey and paired with an ivory envelope. All vendor credits listed at the end of the article.
