✨Cohesion✨ is the name of the game and I reaaaalllyyy wanted to nail this one for stunning Elena & her Jake!
From my very first meeting with Elena, Joy, Lillie, & Jake, I knew that color selection was pinnacle for this design and that I had to curate a palette that would foreshadow a moody, elevated, but refined late fall / early winter affair for these two.
I worked first on envelopes and worked backwards - somewhat atypical for a design, but these vertical top-open envelopes had to be the moment and had to be the perfect mix of purple and brown. From there, our green suede liner, ocean blue details card, and creamy ivory invitation fell right into place, all brought together by a sophisticated but fun serif typeface.
For day of, we channeled the same color palette and font selection to really show off the place settings with dramatic but simple horizontal menus that mimicked the details card from invitation suite— all customized for each guest based off entree!
