J and M Wedding Invites |
Challenges
1)
Colour motif is royal blue (with Silver) – I find blue masculine for a wedding
2) Paper open size is restricted to maximum of A4 as we will
be printing digitally, off-set will be too expensive with the quantity
required of 130 nos
3) After choosing from the initial proposed designs, Bride wanted to include their photo (not my specialization)

That is a piece of art.I like the color motif ans the design turns out really pleasing.
ReplyDeleteBlue is my favorite color but that aside, the finish product for the invite looks really beautiful. Great job.
ReplyDeleteYou got me at that dangling silver accessory. Very simple yet very elegant... Indeed a labour of love. :)
ReplyDeleteThese wedding invitations are sophisticated. You are so talented to do crafts like these... very detailed . Truly, a "Labour of Love"
ReplyDeleteElegant-looking final product. The dangler is so cute. Ang tagal din palang tapusin almost 5 hours.
ReplyDeletewow! congratulations to you and your group; agree! indeed it is a labor of love and the couple deserves this one. I've done invites before but not as elegant and tedious as this one.
ReplyDeleteYou've done a very well job. Is this labour of love a gift for the couple or for a price? :) Just wondering.
ReplyDeleteWow! Now that's one creative wedding invite. That truly shows a 'labor of love'. What's your profession by the way? :)
ReplyDeleteThis invitation is truly a labor of love and the best part is that it cannot be found elsewhere.
ReplyDeletedefinitely labor of love with lots of patience and creativity! great job!:)
ReplyDeleteIt seems good. you are a great designer if you could create something art-worthy. :) You should stick to events business, you're good at it :)
ReplyDeleteWow! The motif is perfect for the occasion. What an elegant motif!
ReplyDeleteThis is great color combination, blue and silver are barely seen together but if you combine the two it makes a wonderful and simple presentation of colors.
ReplyDeleteI like how the blue and gray-scale gives the invite a serious but friendly feel - just what a wedding should be, I suppose? :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work. I've always wanted to have a business like this (maker of wedding invitations) but never had the courage to start. I got scared by the prospect of having to market the business :D
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a true labor of love. I like those things but I think when I get married, I can't do that. Not with 400 guests minimum.
ReplyDeleteIndeed! its a labour of love, The wedding invitation looks really fabulous! :)
ReplyDeletewhat a great art design,, really perfect for a wedding invitation :)
ReplyDeleteIt takes really great talent to be able to do this beautiful invitation card. No wonder invitations are expensive because it's this hard to do. Now I will not haggle so much if I order an invitation from my friend =)
ReplyDeletethat's one unique invitation. it's normally white or ecru or other similar colors. the touch of blue made it unique
ReplyDeletemy sisters wedding motiff, 8 years ago, was powder blue and silver, I suggested it because my fave color is blue. :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing to be able to use your gift in crafting in a productive way and even earn a living from it.
