There’s something to be said for understated simplicity in wedding design. But strategically weaving unique textiles and treatments into your aesthetic can take the look to the next level—be it through attire, rentals, or paper pieces. Stationer Chelsea Carpenter of Southern Fried Paper says that in addition to using dimension-lending papers and processes, she’s even taken the sensory experience a step further for clients so inclined: “We’ve had couples choose a signature scent that gets incorporated into the invitation.” Get inspired by these tactile touches you won’t be able to keep your hands (or mind) off of.
