Teasers for "The Groom"

I have been relentlessly working on The Brooklyn Bridge invitations. Tyese and Craig's wedding date will be here before you know it and we want the guests to be blown away when this invitation is delivered to them. We were working with this design, a 5X7 Gate fold on 110lb card stock:








Then as it began to wind down to the final processes, we came to a more "functional" approach. The bridge is a very important element of the invitation. I wanted to showcase the length of it and give more of a landscape to the artwork. With the gate fold, the art seemed to distort in order to fit the paper.

So tried a tea length (9X4) as well as this fold over design out:



here's what i came up with:





Tjis of course are just rough product images, we have yet to choose the paper and ribbon...but Craig deserves a teaser as he is the first groom to contact me re: invites :) Tyese will be a lucky woman!
