Step right up and be the first to hear the news about our longtime sponsor Royal Steamline! Royal Steamline is a design studio based in Portland, Oregon, helmed by a husband-and-wife team whose wedding we featured in 2009. Royal Steamline's designs are all about offbeat wedding fantasies — where sea monsters mingle next to robotic ravens, and gentlemen scientists have tea with rockabilly rebels.
Today we've got the web's very first sneak peek of “Royal Steamline Electrique” — their new line of digitally-printed wedding invitations for those of us working with more economical budgets. Let's take a look at these new beauties, shall we…
Royal Steamline offers over 130 invitation suites with fanstastic themes like vintage, gothic, steampunk, and carnival to name a few. All Royal Steamline's invitation designs — including their newest Electrique line — are inspired by their love of art, film, novels, and relics of eras past.
With all those creative invitation themes, they're sure to have one that just rocks your offbeat wedding so very hard. And their excellent service will leave you wanting to gush with joy, like so many many many many many offbeat couples past.
My phone started ringing as soon as [the invitations] went out. Royal Steamline's service is fast, professional and courteous. I cannot say enough about this. I was doing a vow renewal and my altered wording did not fit into the web-design tool. No problem! They customized for free. When I got the proof I lamented that the letters in my name happened to be none of the letters in the font that have the pretty flourishes and loops. In 30 minutes they added some that looked seamless and beautiful. Shipping was fast and packaging so gorgeous that I've kept the box ribbon, tissue and string. – Marnie + Matthew (Ohio)

I dig the look of all this stuff, it’s so cool that it’s all customizable. Nice find Megan.
I bought my invites from Royal Steamline- despite having to pay taxes and a lack of info about their arrival in the UK from the courrier (so not their fault!), they were the most beautiful invites I have ever seen, and remarked upon by everyone who saw them! I wish I could get married again just to get another set of invites!
Oh so pretty! Sometimes I’m thankful that most of the pretty invite places don’t offer them in the few quantity we need – I suspect our budget would rapidly grow out of control, otherwise!
Thanks for this beautiful post. Very lovely designs indeed. Next time, I’d need some invites, I’ll remember to order them.
