Wedding Design

This was a big project that I worked on throughout 2023: my brother and his partners’ wedding! It was great to be asked and to be commissioned to contribute to such a big day and special occasion. I started with standard script fonts and whittled them down to one that looked good in various sizes, especially for the large ‘C & C’ logo that was going to be used across all of the signage and paperwork.

The colour selected was a deep green, so I worked with that colour, the selected font and then added the rounded laurel and two separate sans serif fonts for the main body copy of the invites and posters.

Below, you will see images of; the guestbook cover, two large signs on easels that were on display at the ceremony / reception, the ceremony programme, the invites (details blurred) , the table sign markers and the custom made cookies.

Overall, I really enjoyed working on this project. It gave me experience working on a different kind of design and for a different kind of audience than I’m used to. Bouncing ideas and alterations back and forth, as well as making all requested edits was a learning experience. It was also slightly surreal seeing my design work printed onto canvas, flyers, cards and even cookies! I have shown some friends and coworkers these photos and have even had some say they would like me to do the design work for their weddings! I’m available for hire, everyone!
