In matrimonial fashion, there are a lot of sentimental details that go into a bride's outfit, but graphic designer Nick Reeve proves that a wedding jacket for men can be just as much of a romantic keepsake.
Since Reeve met his future wife on a dating site, he created a special suit with lining that contained all of the text messages they exchanged. After exchanging numerous messages that made it clear they were a perfect match for one another, the pair met for a date and two years later, the couple was engaged.
To create the lining of the creative wedding jacket, Reeve consulted a tailor who makes made-to-measure suits. The blocks of text were digitally printed on silk with incredible detail that makes the small font perfectly legible.
