For my loyal readers (if, in fact, I have any) you’ll remember my old post about Sergio and Imelda’s Save the Dates. Well the days of saving the date have come and gone so quickly. A couple weeks ago, we finished the design for their wedding invitations! Working with these two were amazing. They were easy to communicate with, a pleasure to work with, and are just great people in general! I wish you both a lifetime of happiness!
Now, for the design! We obviously wanted to go with a similar look and feel as the Save the Dates but my goal was to give it some fresh life and its own personality. I didn’t want the invites to be a boring repeat of what their guests have already seen. So, we went with a bold red for the pocket, the same red for the names, and subtle artwork to accent the design.

For the invitation card, we wanted to carry through a similar look to the Save the Date cards, so we went with the same right alignment with the same fonts for their names and body text.

To balance the heavy amount of text on the right, we added some art on each left corner to add some personality and weight.

Sergio and Imelda had some requirements on their RSVP card, and I think we were able to design them nicely. We went with a left alignment of the type for an easy read and balanced the heading with artwork in the same shade.

The thing I love most about their suite? The contrast of color! Between the creams and reds, they had such a rich and warm color palette. I love when clients aren’t scared of adding vibrant colors!
