Default Our Wedding Invitation - your creative HELP is needed :-)

Hello everybody.

My GF and I will be married on January 19th, 2008 and it's almost the right time to have a Wedding Invitation for this occasion. We don't want to have some classic - boring one, so we were thinking of some original or crazy one.

We've come up with this but as we're not that great in PS, your mastery and creativeness is more than welcome.
So if anybody comes up with any good or crazy idea how it could be improved, feel free to adjust it. If needed, we could find I way how could I share with you a psd file.

MANY THANKS TO ALL OF YOU

lukas & ivana

I'm not crazy about the curved text, it looks very amateurish to me. Maybe put that in a band across the top like this. It's not perfect, and I have no idea if it works with what the text says, but I think it looks better. With some tweaking it could look awesome.

Great, original idea! I would love to open an invitation and see that because it would make me smile every time I looked at it hanging on my fridge!! I would X out the curved text as well, but other than that...nice!!!

I like what Stefanie did a bit better.

I like the second modified one more however i would slightly lighten shaddows as to be able to see more contrast between your pants and the mountains.

A BIG congrats, my friend!
The idea itself is already wonderful! It's once in a lifetime and might as well do it to fit your personality, and I know you are a lively, unconventional, unorthodox kind of person. I know Ivana is too.
I'm really looking forward to seeing your beautiful wedding photos. Take many many.

Many many thanks my Friend.
Well, if you wish to see those beautiful pictures, you better come to Slovakia and be our personal photographer that day.
I don't think there's any good wedding photographer in my area. I found only one web site of a local photographer and her work is terrible . Very traditional style, only posed pictures, very unnatural. Just to give you a hint of her work, check it here.
So Fee, you better come!
Hey Guys, this has just come to my mind - anyone of you is invited. Your ticket to get in will be your camera .

I'm looking forward to seeing you - all the greatest photographers there!
