Abstract
How might I redesign wedding invitations for couples and their love stories? Wedding invitations have become very generic because of the template-based resources that are available on the internet. Because of this plug-and-chug mechanism, personalities and stories become lost. A wedding is one of the best days of a person’s life, and a wedding invitation is the first opportunity to tell a couple’s love story. Why use a pre-built template to do so? I will create wedding invitations that are tailored and personalized for engaged couples and their love stories. Each story will determine the overall structure of the form and design in the invitations. With couple's love stories being the foundation of my invitations, these wedding invitations will stand out against competitors because of the intentional approach each invitation will take to be a personalized keepsake for couples and their loved ones once the wedding celebrations are over.
