“Save the Date” wedding invitation

“Save the Date” wedding invitation

IA Collaborative, Chicago, Illinois, 2001

Description

Scott and Nicole Wilson asked us to design an announcement for their wedding. We designed the invitation to display all pre- and post-wedding locations on one map. The invitation was produced using one-color letterpress on Bible paper, which z-folded into an elegant square envelope. Because the groom is a contemporary product designer, we focused heavily on both form and function to create a classic yet contemporary invitation.

Juror Notes

“What a great map—letter-pressed and folded into a square. It doesn’t use any of the trappings of romantic correspondence. There’s nice detailing that changes enough, and it delivers Midwestern tough information. A nicely spiced sausage!”
