Felicità couture
For the past few months we had the pleasure to work with a client on a very exciting concept for her wedding.
The Invitation
To indulge the invitees, the bride wanted to give her wedding invitations with a box of chocolate. The box was designed in an elegant way with a cover & a pull out drawer. At the back of the cover, a space was left for the names of the invitees.
A custom wax seal (it carried the Arabic monogram for the bride’s & groom’s name) was attached to the wrapped ribbon around the cover; this is to add a sense of the Victorian era which was the wedding’s theme. The invitation card was created to be used in two ways, either to be inserted as a single card on the top of the chocolate or give it separately in an envelope. The invitation was bilingual (had the Arabic wording & calligraphy on one side & the English on the other side).
This will be our first design in the couture collection which will be soon introduced on our website.
Materials used : (Satin Ribbon, Swarovski Crystals, Custom Wax Seal)
Timeline: approximately 6 months from concepts to production.
Wedding Guest Book
We also collaborated with concepcioun for Handmade books to create a custom Guest Book for the bride to use on her wedding day.
The Buzz
The packaging of the box got featured on Lovely Package® & from there we got the exposure on all the other sites. Here are some of the links:
