Wedding logo design tips
1. Icons
Your logo doesn’t necessarily need an icon, but it can help make your brand memorable, draw attention, and the visual aid will clearly depict what your business is all about. Many wedding logos include icons like rings, tiered cakes, bouquets, and corsages. Some bridal brands even work a heart into their lettering.
However, you can go with an abstract logo to stand out from the crowd. If you’re a happy couple looking to create a logo for your big day, consider picking a symbol that represents your relationship. Or you don’t even need an icon. The famous Manhattan bridal salon, Kleinfeld Bridal, doesn’t have an icon logo.
I recommend checking out other logos to see what you like best. Make sure your icon reflects the message you want to convey and complements the other design elements.
2. Typography
The typography you choose for your wedding logo matters, especially if you use a wordmark logo. There are thousands of fonts to pick from and you might be tempted to go with one that you like. But there’s a psychology behind typography and it’s worthwhile to research what each font conveys.
Monogram logos are a wedding favorite, which means you’ll only need a few initials to make your logo pop off the page. Because of this, the font you choose is key to making your logo stand out. If you’re going for a classic look, go with a serif font like the popular magazine Brides. Or use a script font for an elegant, personalized touch.
3. Color palette
You might’ve guessed that a light color palette is popular among wedding logos. You’ll find lots of soft pink, purple, and blue color combinations. Other wedding logos looking to express an elegant vibe usually go with black. Just be sure to use no more than 2 to 3 colors. Beyond that, anything goes when it comes to wedding logo color palettes.
Just like with typography, there’s a psychology behind colors, so you should choose one that conveys the right message to your audience. Plus, there are certain colors that work well together and others that don’t. If you have a hard time deciding which colors to use for your logo, look at a few proven color combinations for ideas.
4. Layout
Wedding planners, bridal magazines, seamstresses, bakers, and happy couples all end up using their logo everywhere possible. That means places like your website, emails, invitations, presentations, monogrammed napkins, and merch like hats and t-shirts. Keep the logo layout in mind so that it’s easy to scale the design up or down depending on your needs.
