Napa Valley Map Wedding Invitation

Erica & Mark

For their chic Napa Valley wedding, this couple wanted to embrace vineyard and wine country inspiration while still maintaining an overall elegant aesthetic. We kept the invitation very simple with crisp white paper printed with tonal grapevines and a touch of minty silver. The set was accentuated with a watercolor painted map of California and a rich leaf green wax seal.

Sketches

We began the process with some different invitation directions all centering around a modern style with touches of Napa Valley elegance. Inspiration was taken from vineyards, wine casks, grapevines and other wine country elements and combined with crisp contemporary typography

Monograms

We then presented the couple with a few different takes on a monogram that included various vineyard inspired elements such as vines and grapes.

Covers

We explored a few different alternate designs for the cover of the wrap with different layouts. The designs were all on white linen paper with wax seals and emblem accents.

Illustration

We hand painted a custom watercolor of Northern California with icons of the wedding venue as well as some other regional highlights that were important to the bride and groom.

Design Refinement

Once the look and feel were defined, we embarked on the process of extending the design to all the pieces in the invitation suite. We wanted to the suite to feel coordinated as a whole without being too “matchy matchy” so each item, from reply card to envelopes has different design elements that work harmoniously with the overall design aesthetic.

Details, details, details….

Every element and detail in the suite is carefully considered. Even the edges os the watercolor map feature subtle grapes and grape leaves that melt in and out of the background.
