Adorn wedding invitations

Adorn is based in the U.K. and makes beautiful and intricate wedding invitations that look more like art than stationary, with everything from classic wax seals to lace double-front panels. The company received a lot of recognition recently for designing celebrity Vanessa William’s wedding card—an Egyptian-themed card with a personal emblem for the couple enclosed by a 14 carat gold lotus flower. Williams, 52, is a U.S. singer, actor and the first black Miss America. She met her husband, Jim Skrip of Depew, New York, on a cruise in Egypt that inspired their wedding invite.
