Music-Themed Rehearsal Dinner Invitation
by Anne Kostecki
My husband's aunt contacted me about designing a special rehearsal dinner invitation for them. She was designing the event to mirror their wedding colors, which were black, white, and ivory. She also wanted the invitation to reflect the couple's love of music and all things vintage, and the groom's career in music. I was inspired by early classical sheet music and scrolls, and decided to back the invitation with sheet music. The front of the card features minimal, delicate ornaments and a textured font meant to resemble and inked letterpress look.
She loved the invitations, and actually used the extra prints to decorate the rehearsal dinner venue (the sheet music backs also functioned as the table assignment display decor). The invitations were digitally printed on Cougar White 80# paper.
