What makes a Nocturne invitation
Firefly opens on a summer night with lights drifting over the field. Belvedere is a balcony under the stars. Nightbloom and Moonflower are flowers that only open after dark, painted in deep navy and ink. New this season: Mariner, a deep navy card with a fine white frame; Ridge, torn navy papers with gold-leaf edges like hills at night; Brocade, gold-thread flowers on navy silk; Twilight, a watercolor night sky with a crescent moon; and Gilt, navy handmade paper with gold-leaf vines.
Gold lettering on dark paper is the signature of the collection. It reads clearly on a phone, in daylight or at night, and it makes the small details, the seal, the cord, the flame, glow.
The invitation carries your full day: ceremony time, the reception, the after party, dress code, a place to stay. Guests reply on the page and you see every answer in your dashboard.

Questions
Is dark paper hard to read on a phone?
No. Every design in Nocturne was checked on real phones in daylight. The lettering is gold or ivory on navy, at a size made for reading, and the important lines are always the brightest thing on the screen.
Can I add a song?
Every design comes with its own piece of music. It starts when the guest breaks the seal, and there is a quiet switch on the page to turn it off.
Does it work for a black tie dress code?
Yes. The dress code section lets you say exactly what you would like, from black tie to cocktail, with your own note if you want one.
