Perfect Half Wedding Invitations

07/02/2010

These two wedding invitations couldn’t be more different in design and layout, but I love the way the invitation elements work together like pieces in a puzzle.  The first design features a fold-out poster style wedding invitation, which when folded shows the name of the bride on one side and the groom on the other.  When the invitation is opened, the two names come together to form the same heart pattern printed on the clear vellum envelope:

The two halves of this letterpress wedding invitation by Norman’s Printery literally fit together like two puzzle pieces – but the modern geometric shapes in the heart keep the overall design from being overly sweet or feminine.  Plus, you know I’m always a sucker for a crisp blind impression like this one:
