Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 77 - ✨150 HIVE in the Prize Pool!
YOU'RE INVITED to:
Carmilla and Nathan's Wedding Cruise
Hello everyone. I have an exciting new project I wish to share. Shortly you will receive your personal invitation to attend the upcoming wedding for Carmilla and Nathan. When I heard about their upcoming nuptials and plans for their wedding weekend, I volunteered to assist with their arrangements.
That is my gift to them. I created the wedding invitations. Also, I assisted with the decoration of their venue at the Surfside Marina.
How exciting to have a weekend wedding cruise. It's perfect for their personalities. I know their guests will be thrilled because it's an exclusive all-paid cruise with activities for all tastes.
The date is fast approaching. I immediately got started.
I decided to create two different collages, then merge them to create the invitation. I used Canva to commplete the project.
Collage 1: THE VENUE
I chose to start with the venue. My thinking was that it would take the most time to complete. I would include the completed collage for the setting of the wedding inside the invitation so that guests could see their adventure on the weekend of the wedding.
Fortunately, @shaka provide me with a nice image for the venue.

I decorated the outdoor section of the image that will serve as the area where the ceremony will take place. The location is the Surfside Marina. Carmilla's colors are purple, red, and white. Nathan didn't have any input, so I chose a blue carpet for him to feel comfortable among all the shades of feminine decor. He seemed relaxed after our conversation.
To the event location, I included the following images:
- Wedding arch by Gulshan Sighnhfrom ClipArtKey
- Gift table by Xpopierdolonax from ClipArtKey
- Wedding cake from ClipArtKey
- Pink bow by TransparentPNG from PurePNG
- Wedding doves from PNGMart
- Blue carpet from PNGMart
- Red carpet by PNGStock from PurePN
- Cruise ship Kumaran from PurePNG
- Hearts from clipartlibrary
- Balloons from PNGMart
- Gifts from PNGMart
Here is the completed wedding venue. I hope you like the way it turned out.
Now I can begin work on the actual wedding invitation.
Collage 2: THE INVITATION
I located a beautiful photo frame I thought would be perfect to house both the couple's pre-wedding photo and the image of the decorated venue.

I removed the background and added my own text with the couple's names, the date, and occasion.
I then added the following images:
Colorful flower pattern as border by kjpargeter from Freepik
Wedding couple by hadiaaltaf from PurePNG
Wedding ring by UpMeHolidays from PurePNG
Finally, I uploaded and added my completed venue image to the 2nd circle.

What a nice idea ! I would love a wedding venue like this.
Good entry I hope you will make it to the finals
Thanks for stopping by and your kind words. So glad you liked it.
Take care.
What a fancy event venue.
I wonder how many people that's expected to attend the weeding.
Good luck in the contest
Hello @daniella619 Thanks for taking the time to view my collage. I appreciate it. It's a small wedding. That's why the couple is paying for all their guests to go on the cruise with them.
On second thought, they could have had the wedding on the cruise ship, but they wanted a seaside event.
Thanks for visiting. I love fiction, and sometimes I just can't help creating a story to accompany my contest entries.
Have a good start to your week. Take care and stay safe.
Okay dear.
I love fiction too, especially sci-fi.
Am wishing us success in the contest
Thanks. I love sci-fi also. Hope this cruise doesn't turn out to be one of weddings gone bad, lol
Lol
It won't
What an original idea! And so beautifully done.
Good luck in the contest!

Nice idea, but what truly I like is how you decorated your post overall. It's really well balanced, not too much info on one spot, nice breaks, lovely story and good presentation all in all. Well done :)
Thank you for taking the time to view my collage. You words about my design and the structure of my post is encouraging. I'll try to make sure I balance out the different sections I sometimes use so that it won't just be one long reading.
Take care and have a good week ahead.
