I'm most excited about the printed matters like the invitation and tote bags for the guests. I tapped Inksurge, a graphic design duo from the Philippines, to illustrate and design for me.
Jon and I are getting married in Bali. The ceremony will be in a local church but the reception is in Gaya Villas. I fell in love with this place when I visited Ubud last year and it seemed like the perfect setting. I think the homemade gelato, handmade ceramics were the selling points, truthfully.
For the invitation and tote bag design, the brief was simple - I wanted an illustration of a Banyan tree similar to the one in Gaya. How I love a nice tree, with remarkable but imperfect grain and some occasional lovers' etchings.
And this is what Rex and Jois of Inksurge came up with:

Can't wait to pick these up when I come home to Manila next week!

INKSURGE. Brewed in Manila, Philippines 2002.
A design studio concocted by digital baristas and authentic coffee junkies Jois Tai (she takes it w/ milk) and Rex Advincula (he takes it w/ sugar).
A visual stimulant. A creative brewery. An excuse for waking up late. An excuse for staying up later.
Steeped in a rich passion for visual arts both as a communication and a public contribution, the INKSURGE trademark extends from collective idea generation to project development to creative execution. An immersive design culture between their various clients and project collaborators --
-- a design culture that has gained recognition from the local and international web design, print, and interactive scene, making the INKSURGE blend rich in concoction.
Caffeine overdrive, a restless imagination, and a burn for creation make a genius brew, after all.

INKSURGE has designed many things for Manila's movers and shakers from cd covers for Taken By Cars (Dualist) and Pupil (Limiters of the Infinity Pool, Wildlife) to creatives for Mich Dulce and Bea Valdes.
