Billet
A little envelope, sealed by hand, opens on a love letter.
About Billet
Billet takes its name from the billet-doux, the old French love letter. A small claret envelope waits with a gold seal. Guests lift the seal, the flap folds back and the letter rises out to become the invitation. Engraved capitals, a ticking countdown and colour swatches for the dress code make it feel personal and complete.
How it opens

Guests lift the gold seal.
The flap opens and the letter rises from the envelope.
