So, it’s the first idea, and we may or may not go with it. The font we used is dekthusian. The inspiration is from a Charles Rennie MacKintosh stained glass window:

Charles was one of the architects that stuck out in one of my architecture history classes. His work can look similarto Frank Lloyd Wright’s prairie style details at times, but I think Rennie’s had a little more whimsy.

Did a piece of art or architecture inspire any portion of your wedding?

I love your inspiration. And I love how well it translated to your invite. I think that it all compliments each other perfectly.

I love the invitation AND the inspiration. We actually were inspired by architectural details at our venue in our invitation design. Our venue featured floor tiles and details from the Arts and Crafts period. My husband actually took photos and used the floor tiles as a motif on our invites and all other paper products for the wedding.

Thanks y’all, but I didn’t go with it. More posts coming soon on this topic, I’m in the middle of the final invite push. Just fiddling with the map. I did like that design though, and purple flowers definitely make an appearance!
