Silhouette Surprises
If you are looking for a standout but personal graphic design for your signature wedding look, but don't want to go the route of a monogram, why not look to your own individual profiles?
A two dimensional image created by taking an outline of each of your profiles and filling them in uniformly either through the use of black paper or ink, or a similarly dark colors such as grey or navy, silhouettes turned to face each other create a uniquely personalized image with a multitude of uses.
Stationery is by far one of the places your coupled silhouettes will have the greatest impact. By placing these images on your invitations, your wedding programs, escort cards, dinner menus and favor tags, you can literally stamp your personality on each piece. Or take it one step further and get personalized stamps of your silhouettes to put on each invitation you mail out.
Silhouettes can also be used as decorative accessories used throughout your wedding. From a gobo light decoration that shines on your dance floor or on the wall above your wedding cake, to decorative iced versions that adorn the cake itself.
Silhouettes can also make wonderful favors for guests when turned into fun cookies iced in your wedding colors. Place them on a tray facing each other for guests to choose from, or place a pair of cookies at each place setting.
If looking for a really fun favor, you can even hire a silhouette artist to surprise your guests by creating silhouettes of each of them that they can take with them home, giving them a long-lasting memory of your silhouette-themed wedding.
Design is an important element of any wedding, and creating a silhouette graphic that represents you both is a way to personalize that design without having to go to the expense of hiring the professional talents of a graphic designer. It's unique, it's fun, it's inexpensive and it has multi uses - you couldn't ask any more from a graphic than that.
