Ok, I know I post a lot of feminine art and design on this blog. I am truly drawn to it and it’s what I do as an illustrator. However, some of my biggest influences are men. Matt Dorfman is one of them, both man and influence. Here’s his vote poster for the AIGA, and his collaborative project Mammal Magazine (welcome to manville).
Is it any wonder his recent wedding invitation is genius? I’ve never seen such a clever invite. No flowers, no lace, no swirly calligraphy, just their whole entire love story (what a story it is). The design blows my mind and the concept is just perfect.
It’s been almost 2 years since Dave and I got married (follow that link if you are into sap) and I still haven’t put together a wedding book. I’m planning to make a blurb book. Matt’s wedding invitation makes me feel lazy and lame.
Congratulations Matt and Jill.

Coolest wedding invite ever. I love it.
I know my brain exploded when I saw it!
SO awesome!
I know…I know…..he’s really amazing.
LOVE this.
I thought of you right away when I saw it! I knew you’d love it Joanna!
Matt is my husband, the invite is from our wedding in November 09. Everyone who received it loved it, it really set such an amazing tone for our wedding. Thanks for the shout out, if he doesnt already know that its on your site, He’ll be thrilled!
Hey Jill!!
I think he already knows. I told him a while back. Actually I went to Syracuse with him. He was older and wiser and I looked up to his work in illustration. So it’s nice to see what he’s up to today. He’s so incredibly talented. I love this invitation so much. Apparently a lot of other bloggers too as they found it here and could not resist sharing it. It’s super cool. Congrats on getting married btw.
My fiance and I could not help smile because,,,this is sooooo similar to our love story. Did your husband design this? We were wanting to create something similar. Any help would be appreciated…CONGRATS
No, the illustrator Matt Dorfman created it. He does great work.
