Hello,

Would like some input on the following three "logos".
Keep in mind I am targeting the wedding market. Any pointers? Improvements?
PS:
I had my designer friend do these for me.

The last one, definitely. The others are nice and businesslike, but the script font I beleive will be more appealing to brides and their mothers (and they're usually the ones who organise the photos).

While I might agree that the design needs some work, to say that 'they all suck' without telling the OP why is wrong.

I don't care for any of them because there's just plain. There's nothing wrong with plain, but it needs something here. He said you were going to add color later. You need to do that NOW. Color is very important to a logo.

Good luck...:D

Out of the ones in the OP, I like #1 the best.

The advice you get can be Fast, Good, or Cheap. Pick two. Since it's free you can choose fast, or good. You got fast, because i'm busy.

They're not logos, they're your business name in a variety of boring fonts. There's a difference between plain and simple.
