Wedding Invite Trends
"Personalized monograms are a significant trend in luxury invitations, where each couple or event receives a bespoke logo or emblem that reflects their unique journey," says Gupta. "I see it as creating a brand for their celebration, adding a personal yet luxurious touch. For instance, in one project, I designed a monogram inspired by a couple’s shared love for travel, incorporating motifs from their favourite destinations."
Beyond aesthetics, the soul of a luxury invitation lies in its craftsmanship. " I believe that opulence is best expressed through the hands of skilled artisans. Whether it's using fine silk fabrics, incorporating 3D elements like sholapith art, or adding hand-painted details, I ensure that every piece feels like a collectible work of art. A great example is our recent collection of invitations inspired by jamawar shawls, where we extracted motifs from the intricate weaves to create one-of-a-kind designs."
Sustainability is now a defining feature of luxury wedding invites."
Lastly, sustainability is becoming an essential feature of luxury wedding invites. "Clients are increasingly interested in eco-luxury, and I incorporate materials such as recycled paper, organic textiles, and even plantable seed paper, all without compromising on grandeur. This ensures that our designs are as thoughtful as they are beautiful."
Inside the World of Celebrity Wedding Invitations
Designing invitations for celebrity weddings is more than just creating an entry pass—it’s about weaving a story of love, luxury, and craftsmanship at an unparalleled scale. For Puneet Gupta, each project is a canvas where personality meets artistry, resulting in one-of-a-kind keepsakes. "One of my favourite projects was designing a matchbox-inspired invitation for Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha’s wedding," he shares. Their wedding theme was eclectic and full of charm, much like their personalities. The whimsical, vintage-style invite featured intricate illustrations and hand-painted elements, with the tagline “Couple Matches Made in Heaven” tying it all together. "It was bold, unique, and deeply personal—just like them."
For Darren Lung and Lucy Clayton’s wedding in Zermatt, Switzerland, Gupta brought their love story to life through a hand-bound storybook invitation. "Each page was a tribute to their journey—from skiing holidays in the Swiss Alps to their shared love for pets and the groom’s red race car," he recalls. Crafted with raw silk, delicate hand-painted details, and soft cotton paper, the invite perfectly captured the snowy romance of their wedding destination. Then there was an opulent Bollywood wedding where the invitation itself became a piece of heritage. "We created a lavish invitation box using Banarasi brocade, adorned with handcrafted 3D floral motifs, a miniature palace, and terracotta keepsakes," says Gupta. This design seamlessly blended India’s timeless craftsmanship with the modern sensibilities of eco-conscious luxury.
To conclude Gupta says, "Every celebrity project is unique, and the true magic lies in translating their story into an invitation that isn’t just a piece of paper—it’s a memory, a tangible expression of their journey together." In the world of luxury invitations, Puneet Gupta ensures that every detail speaks the language of love and grandeur.
