Renée & Riaan Save the Date

Renée and Riaan got married last weekend in the beautiful little town of Parys in the Free State.
The colour scheme for the wedding was shades of grey and yellow with a quirky peacock theme. Not the peacock colours but rather to "pronk" and shake off your feathers!
The design process started off with an email save the date design.
We will share more on this stunning wedding in the next few weeks. There are loads more to follow like a printed save the date, invitations and gorgeous stationery. Have a look on our Facebook Page for a photo from the table seating chart we designed, snapped at the wedding on Saturday.

With a vintage theme and a colour scheme with earthy tones and accents of green, these were the perfect invitations for Joulene and Jaco's upcoming wedding. They are getting married at the beautiful L'Aquila just outside Pretoria later this year. The invitation was finished with a printed paper band and a beautiful soft cream lace collar. The envelopes were finished off with a wrap around label design with each guests name on. For more information or quotes send us an email with your quantities to merciamdesigns@gmail.com

Wine Tasting Sheets Design

This was a very exciting project to work on for La Petite Ferme. Situated on the slopes of the Franschhoek pass this beautiful farm has a restaurant, winery and guest suites with the most stunning view over the Franschhoek valley. 
We created tasting sheets that the they want to use in their tasting room featuring all their wines, worldwide distributors as well as a wine aroma wheel. This is a very interactive tool to learn about wines and enhance your ability to describe the complexity of flavor in red and white wines. It provides you with the terms to describe wine aromas. It is very easy to use and understand, and it will enhance your whole wine experience. 
This is also a great keepsake for guests who visits the farm, much different than normal brochures and it has all the information about the farm that you need. 
We decided to print the tasting sheets on a newsprint type paper to add to the old wold, antique feel of the design. The tasting sheets were bound in pads of 50 so it can easily tear off.

Vintage Bicycle Invitation

In most cases less is always more. But when it comes to wedding invitations and stationery it can really swing both ways. This very affordable invitation design and print was inspired by my love for simple, timeless and effortless designs. 
This could work very well for a garden wedding, vintage farm theme and even a late morning celebration. The invite is printed on a high quality off-white uncoated paper and finished off with grey and white bakers twine.
