Bag and Tote Design Brief
Am getting married soon and my fiancee wants to have some personalised tote bags made as wedding favors for our guests. I have actually come up with two designs myself (Tote Design 01 & 02) but needless to say my fiancee wants to see more great designs before she decides on one!
Before I talk about the requirements, let me briefly explain my two design concepts for your reference:
File: Tote Design 01) The concept is simple, it has our initials (S + A), an infinity sign, the location we are getting married at (Koh Samui, Thailand) and the coordinates of the venue in Koh Samui.
File: Tote Design 02) I merely turned our names into numbers so it becomes a subtle design, basically it says "Stephanie + Angus + Friend"
Updates
Dear designers,
Just to let you know the printable area of the tote bag will be 27cm x 27cm. I've also removed our wedding date as one of the "must have" requirements. Thanks, happy designing!
Cheers,
Angus

Thank you all for participating in this project, special thanks goes out to Lighthouse Graphics and Tati for being very patience with us during the design phase and keep sending in revisions...The decision making process was painful and difficult. While we would love to award all of you, unfortunately, we have a limited budget. Thank you again for sending in your creative designs, you guys are truly awesome.
