Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt’s Malibu wedding in 2000 (Y2K y’all) was THE event of the new millennium, fitting of course for THE couple. Those were simpler times. Since these two made scrunchie-rocking hearts flutter everywhere, I’m sure I wasn’t the only grown-up 90s kid who freaked out with excitement about even-totally-far-flung dating rumors. In that spirit, I’ve reimagined their wedding invitations for every season – each version reflecting a different vibe for the big day.

Before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s start with the really important stuff first though, shall we?

Glad we got that out of the way 😉 Anyway, in this blog, I’m envisioning what never happened. Check out Jen and Brad’s hypothetical wedding invitations for every season, complete with overall inspiration and color selections from The Collection, my affordable, online invitations product.

The customization options within The Collection are purposefully easy to mix and match, so you can choose combinations that work for the overall vibe of your big day.

Let’s imagine four versions for these two not-actual-lovebirds!

How I designed their wedding invitations for every season

For ease of comparison, I designed all four invitations with the same layout option: script headings and a monogram. Likewise, I kept the wording consistent throughout all four options, only varying the dates, locations, and attire. This way, the differences shine through. Each one has a different calligraphy style, as well as a different color palette.

Spring Wedding

The Wedding Planning:

Venue: Pippin Hill Farm and Vineyards in North Gardens, Virginia

Vibe: abundant florals, light and airy feeling in an outdoor setting

Color palette: pink, blush, sand, lots of soft greenery

The Wedding Invitation Design:

This iconic venue is known for its historic preppiness, and the couple had planned a floral-focused event. Leaning into the preppy styling, the “Alex” calligraphy style is feminine and straightforward. With flowers as the focus of their design aesthetic, I chose dusty rose as the ink and envelope liner color, with a tone-on-tone envelope in cipria. This combination of feminine and bright makes for the perfect preview for this spring wedding.

The Wedding Invitation Selections:

Here, I’ve outlined the selections I made from The Collection for this particular suite, so you can build yours in the same way!

• Design layout: script headings and monogram
• Calligraphy style: The Alex
• Cardstock color: White
• Ink color: Dusty Rose
• Envelope color: Cipria
• Envelope liner: added upgrade, in Dusty Rose

Summer Wedding

The Wedding Planning:

Venue: Hotel Walloon in Walloon Lake, Michigan

Vibe: laidback but classic feeling, peaceful waterfront setting, locally grown/sourced wherever possible, late night s’mores

Color palette: white blooms with hints of blue and taupe, as a nod to the nautical setting without feeling like Cape Cod

The Wedding Invitation Design:

The setting at this intimate lakeshore venue is insanely beautiful. Anyone getting married here has an affinity for seemingly-effortless luxury. Somehow casual and elegant at the same time, northern Michigan is a perfect balance of opposites. Keeping things casual but still delicate, I used the “Kelly” calligraphy style. To highlight the nautical setting of their day, I chose dusty blue as the ink and cool blue as the envelope color, with a harvest colored liner. This understated invitation makes for the perfect preview for this summer wedding.

Fall Wedding

The Wedding Planning:

Venue: Ballard Bay Club in Seattle, Washington

Vibe: formal but not stuffy, rich textures and warmth, organic styling

Color palette: jewel tones and earthy neutral blooms with wood and metal accents

The Wedding Invitation Design:

Showcasing autumn can be done without feeling like Halloween and Thanksgiving had a freaky lovechild. To accomplish this, I opted for nubuck brown ink color. Since everything on the day is going to be textured, this would be the perfect suite to incorporate letterpress printing – begin with the textural element right off the bat! Keeping things classic and delicate, I used the “Laura” calligraphy style. Adding to the nubuck brown ink, I chose a pale taupe envelope but added a racing green envelope liner, as a pop of a jewel tone – ideal for this autumn wedding.

The Wedding Invitation Selections:

Here, I’ve outlined the selections I made from The Collection for this particular suite, so you can build yours in the same way!

• Design layout: script headings and monogram
• Suggested print method: letterpress
• Calligraphy style: The Laura
• Cardstock color: White
• Ink color: Nubuck Brown
• Envelope color: Pale Taupe
• Envelope liner: added upgrade, in Racing Green

Winter Wedding

The Wedding Planning:

Venue: The Langham in Chicago, Illinois

Vibe: ultra glamorous, opulent affair with classic, over-the-top details

Color palette: black, white, silver

The Wedding Invitation Design:

For an elegant ballroom wedding in the winter, it’s always a treat to really just go for it. Embrace the fact that you’re having a black tie event and start from the beginning with this detail-oriented experience for your loved ones. To accomplish this glam style, I opted for silver foiling stamping on this invitation. Paired with a grey envelope and black liner, along with the Jackie style calligraphy, this wedding invitation screams “I’m fancy.”

The Wedding Invitation Selections:

Here, I’ve outlined the selections I made from The Collection for this particular suite, so you can build yours in the same way!

So there you have it! If Jennifer and Brad were to do it all over again, that’s how I’d imagine their wedding invitations in every season. I hope this was helpful to showcase how your invitation is truly a preview of what’s to come on the big day. When you think of it in that way, making your customization selections is a piece of cake!
