Tattoo Wedding Invitation

Everyone enjoys a challenge - especially me when it comes to a wedding invitation! My friend Jane approached me to design her nephew's wedding invitations for their April 2010 wedding in England. Absolutely - tea, crumpets, and hats fit for a queen - Not so much! The groom is the lead singer in a punk band - apparently quite a successful punk band called Deaf Havana

Here were my marching orders... Chris and Tanya wanted wedding stationery that reflected their style as musicians, incorporated their colors - pink and silver, and here's the best part - the Groom's tattoos! After receiving these images of Chris's body art, the solution was simple - concert poster invitation, accompanied by a CD with images and music of the couple's choosing. Enjoy! I had a great time working on this one!
