Wedding invitation

Isabella & Julian

The house lights dim, the curtain opens, and two people get married on the stage.

Deep red velvet wedding invitation with a gold tassel hanging at the top right and a thin gold border. The names Isabella and Julian are embroidered in gold script, with the date and venue below.

Part of the TinselLux™ collection: invitations in stitched leather, tufted velvet, linen and satin.

The material is the card: linen with a visible weave, velvet with a nap, leather with its grain. It costs the same as every other invitation.

This wedding invitation puts the evening inside a theatre. Guests come in through the lobby, find their row and seat, and sit in the dark while the curtain goes up. The couple stand on the stage under one warm light, with the velvet drawn back behind them and the first rows close enough to hear every word without a microphone turned up high.

After the ceremony, the house is turned over for supper. Tables go in where the rows allow, or the lobby is set with linen and candles, and the gift table sits near the box office window. The band plays from the stage, the first dance happens on the same boards where the vows were said, and the night finishes with one more song after the last one.

What to actually tell people

  • Seat people by row and number A theatre has a seating plan already printed into the floor. Put the row and seat on each place card and skip the easel chart entirely, and keep the first two rows for parents and grandparents.
  • Walk the room with the house technician Ask for one warm wash on the stage for the vows, a cue for the processional, and a handheld or lavalier microphone for the officiant. Ten minutes of sound check in the afternoon saves the back rows from straining.
  • Plan the turnaround between ceremony and supper Someone has to move chairs, set tables and clear the aisle while guests are elsewhere. Hold them in the lobby with a drink and something to eat for twenty-five minutes, and tell the venue staff the exact start time.
  • Decide the encore before the band does Pick the song that ends the night and tell the bandleader in writing, along with who you want on the stage for it. If the venue has a hard curfew, work backwards from it so the last song is not cut.
