travel invitation

Daniela and Rui (Gen’s very own) wished to invite their family and friends to celebrate the life-long journey that they are about to set off on.


Na vida, o importante não é onde vais, mas com quem viajas.*

— the motto on sleeve cover sets the tone for the wedding invitation in form of a travel ticket. The design mimics the traditional format of a plane ticket featuring all the necessary information regarding the event; with passenger’s receipt as a tear-off stub, and a QR Code, which can add the event to your calendar app.

Going with only a single turquoise Pantone colour (in various opacities) and nice cotton paper was a cost-based decision, where the copper foil finishing was set to be the simple enhancement, which elevates the piece to the level suitable for this grand occasion.

We’ve managed to achieve a fresh and modern look with a touch of proper richness and elegance.

[update]

The “travel invitation” was featured on FPO (for print only), a division of UnderConsideration. Thanks, we’re honoured!

*“In life, it’s not where you go, it’s who you travel with.” The quote originally in English by Charles M. Schulz, the author of Peanuts – the popular comic strip.
