Johnny & Ailbhe’s Wedding Invitation

I designed this pop-up wedding invitation for my good friends. It was inspired by a much simpler, handmade pop-up card from Oaxaca, Mexico that the groom had bought the bride when they were dating and that they both loved. The hands of bridesmaids, family, and friends were enlisted for the measuring, cutting, tying and gluing that the assembly of these invites required. The front panels feature an excerpt of a poem by the groom's father. With coordinating lined envelopes, hand-calligraphy addresses and metallic gold wax seals depicting a Celtic knot, These invitations were truly a labor of love. We even made confetti out of the leftover paper scraps!
