Mexico Wedding Illustration

This illustrated wedding invitation was influenced by the ultra baroque style of the church location for the marriage ceremony. Federico Jordan designed and illustrated in his unique graphic style. The event will be in the colonial city of San Luis Potosí. The Templo del Carmen was build in 1741 and looks amazing. Inside there is a small chapel know as Capilla de Nuestra señora del Carmen where the brides ancestors are buried.

The card is letterpress printed on Gruppo Cordenons, Canaletto Grana Grossa Bianco 111lbC.

We’ve also worked with Federico in the past on a little illustration promo card with a character that comes apart like a nesting matryoshka doll, with balls. Check out another post about the insane Shakespearian Thinktopia poster we printed, also illustrated by Federico.

So, how do you get a gorgeous wedding invitation for a reasonable price?
