The Royal Wedding memorabilia is everywhere at the moment, from tacky mugs to overpriced fridge magnets. So as a breath of fresh air, Stylesight’s graphic team was excited to visit a recent art exhibition of alternative Royal Wedding invites.

The R.S.V.P.H.R.H show just off Brick Lane in London featured international visual artists working to create an alternative Royal Wedding invitation for Kate and William’s big day in April. The one-night event featured large-scale digital prints of the artworks on display. These were auctioned off with all profits going to the artist’s chosen charity.
