Opinions on wedding invites? - PICS

• Opinions on wedding invites? - PICS jones Posted : 1/23/2007 12:14:59 PM Personal opinions wanted - what do you think of these two invitations I designed? Do you like one better or neither very much? They're going to be printed on sky blue paper with a clover green envelope. I know they're very similar but I welcome any feedback about them....     LIKE 23 REPLIES 721 VIEWS LAST POST HUSKYMOM Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Benedict Posted : 1/23/2007 12:18:40 PM I prefer the second one.  []  icking invites can be a tricky business, can't it?   Kate 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• huskymom Posted : 1/23/2007 12:26:26 PM I like the flowers on the second one better.  I also prefer the font of the names on the second one.  Will you match to font of the rest of the wording or do you mean to use a plain font to make the names stand out?  Personally I would bold the names rather than use a different font style.  JMHO 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• cakana Posted : 1/23/2007 12:28:30 PM Well, I like the first one but with the picture on the second one.  Is the picture on the first one supposed to be a lotus flower?  It reminds me of an artichoke...or, maybe I'm just hungry [].  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• mrstjohnson Posted : 1/23/2007 12:33:59 PM I agree with Cathy.  If you can't have it that way, pick the second one.  The flower on the first looks like a man eating flower [] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Michelle Posted : 1/23/2007 12:44:04 PM I wholeheartedly agree with the second choice as well! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• TAOofGoldyShep Posted : 1/23/2007 12:46:43 PM To me: the first one looks more playful and the second looks more formal.  I like them both. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jones Posted : 1/23/2007 1:00:30 PM Thanks for the feedback... I can do whatever with the fonts, I am making these on Photoshop! I agree with the characterizations of "playful" and "formal." That's probably why I'm torn... I feel "playful" fits us better but visually I'm fonder of the apple blossoms. And yes the first one is a lotus/water lily, I'm sure the green is not helping the artichoke association!

• melindar Posted : 1/23/2007 1:00:49 PM If you can't do font from 1st one on the 2nd invitation, then I would say definately the 2nd one. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• loveukaykay Posted : 1/23/2007 1:11:53 PM Hmm that flower in the first one does look like an artichoke.    I like the second one, the font and the picture.  Can you make the text all closer together in that one?  Meaning the marrige and 3 oclock, just looks kinda far apart to me... but, I see that the flower is sort of in the way. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• TAOofGoldyShep Posted : 1/23/2007 2:44:41 PM ORIGINAL: jones ... I feel "playful" fits us better but visually I'm fonder of the apple blossoms. Maybe keep the apple blossoms and play with the font some more.  I think the soft green color you've chosen is bit on the playful side.  Looks like they're both a fit, just need to tweek them a little bit to see which one really stands out to you.

• miranadobe Posted : 1/23/2007 5:16:36 PM I changed my mind.  If you're going for playful, sweet - go with the first one but choose a different image than the waterlilly/artichoke/man eater.  Takes you a second to figure out what it is - and you certainly don't need your first impression to be a look of puzzlement.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
