It’s been almost two months now since my wife and I got hitched, and I wanted to share some of the assets that we put together for the big day, as well as the invitations, thank you cards and more goodies! Our theme was vintage travel, so we had a ton of fun creating a narrative around elements that would feel at home in the 50s and 60s.
Our “save the date” was a vintage telegram. We used the monogram we created to act as an “official” seal as well.
The exterior of our wedding invite travel brochure. My wife illustrated a few vignettes of us around town which acted as the visual context for a lot of the material inside. We provided lodging tips, fun things to do in the city,
The interior of the brochure. More super fun illustrations, suggestions and tips, etc. Everyone we invited to the wedding was coming in from out of town, so we figured we could really have some fun with the suggestions, and it would actually be a practical tool for folks coming out.
This was the sign in front of our wedding venue. My wife created the illustration of the two of us dancing, and we wanted to make the rest of the sign feel like it was something you’d see as you entered a little town.
These were our “thank you” cards. Inspired by vintage travel postcards. The image on the front is the view from Glacier Point in Yosemite. I actually proposed at the top of Nevada Fall, pictured in the lower right corner.
A little taste of everything all put together!
