Romantic wedding


Deanna came to me after she had a bad experience with an invitation company--one that said their invitations were custom-designed but they weren't. We didn't have a chance to meet because Deanna was in a time crunch and she didn't live in Austin. After a 15-minute phone conversation, I knew exactly what she was looking for...something feminine and romantic based on the colors of pomegranate and pink.

With that in mind, I created a classic monogram that we will use on all of her wedding collateral from the invitation to the thank you notes to her reception collateral (i.e., menus, programs, table cards). Everything from the monogram to the fonts to the design pattern on the "RSVP" and "Join Us" cards created the fairy-tale mood that she wanted to convey to guests. After all, the wedding is at a private vineyard in California. Would you expect anything less?!

Wedding at Mandola Estate Winery
















From the wedding invitations to the reception collateral, the design was kept simple and modern. The invitation was letterpress printed on Crane's 100% Cotton Lettra cover stock in green and brown inks with the couple's names as the focus. The font treatment of their names became their logo for all of the design pieces. Because the wedding was at an Italian winery, Italian words were used throughout the reception collateral. We created the escort tent cards (which were displayed on a ribbon bulletin board) and placecards and table cards (both propped up on wine corks). We love the natural feel of this wedding and we're always suckers for a green and chocolate brown combo. Salute!
