Project Description
The attributes I wanted to achieve with this system included whimsy, timelessness and rustic elements from the wedding theme. Detailed art deco line work was used to create a pattern resembling lace of a wedding gown. Tone on tone colors and brown paper palette complement a handcrafted, romantic setting. The system involved complete branding: logo, event invitations, reception card, stamp, plus original RSVP design, featuring an inventive, dual-purpose card and mailing piece. Gold metallic ink created consistency across the pieces.Production Lesson(s)
During the production process, paper choice was important to achieve a subtle difference in tones for the rustic feel. Working with the printer, we looked at several different options and decided on a palette of natural colors with a slight texture to bring out the provincial charm of the theme.
