too much, too late

So it dawned on me after a comment on one of my recent posts that I have an awful lot of graphics that we are incorporating into the wedding. I think there are four specific designs we are using, six if you count the two fonts that have found their way onto everything.

The lobster, clam, hydrangea and monogram seem a bit much to me when I think about it and now I am worried that it won’t all look cohesive in the end, but rather like a hodge-podge of mismatched, icon overkill.
The lobster is on our save-the-date, the response cards, the stamps on the envelopes for the response cards and the table place cards.



The clam is on the outer invitation envelope, the out-of-towner newsletter, the escort cards and the table tents.


The hydrangea is on the escort card envelopes, the front of the programs and the wedding thank-you cards.


The monogram is on the back of the save-the-dates, the back of the invitations, the inner invitation envelope flaps, the stamps for the invitations, the favor tags and on the cake!

I realize it is too late to change it now, but do you think people will just be confused by the mess of different graphics we are using?

And I fancied myself a designer! HA!
