Design w/Chon: Save the Date Card for a Mexico Wedding

I have some fun Save the Date cards to show off today! I recently finished designing three concept directions that matches the previous inspiration board posting for my client's vintage, Mexico wedding. In all these designs, I made sure I pulled iconic elements that represent Mexican art and culture such as the sun rays, agave plant and very particular the bee graphic from the tequila brand – Patron. The client plans on incorporating little Patron bottles as wedding favors and doing a historical tour at a tequila distillery with their wedding guests in Jalisco, Mexico.

I showed these designs to the client last week, and they were totally in love with all the directions, but there was one clear winner as I saw the future bride's eyes light up when she saw it for the first time. The winner is design #3 with the country outline of Mexico. And that was my favorite and the recommended design, too! I love working with client's that appreciate the work. :)

And the knitty gritty details to the printing of this Save the Date card. We are going to be printing on a Letterpress printer with 1 PMS color on an uncoated, creamy beige thick paper stock. And there will be A7 envelopes to match the paper stock.
