Inspiration Bug

We are a blogging site that inspires visitors to put together innovative ideas for wedding and special occasion events. We provide advice, visual inspiration, and encourage our community to share their insight and expertise. We will be showcasing wedding and themed events, that are beautifully photographed and posted to the site.

Our mission is to create a tool that compiles much of the needed information in planning an event on one site. From venue selection to centerpiece, cocktail reception to music play list, we provide the inspiration to plan your perfect event.

People who are interested in planning for a wedding and learning about event trends. Most likely the audience will be female but we expect a some crossover with the male audience.

We are looking for the main logo and an avatar icon- to use with our affiliate partners (e.g. Facebook "F" icon): Below are the requirements:

1. Logo

A) Logo: A balance of organic and linear/ modern design elements:
-Muted color palette
-Logo needs to be feminine (but not too flowery/ fluffy) and appeal to women
-Will be covering current trends and hip events, so need to have a modern/ sophisticated vibe

B) Logo font:
-Like the font @ myfonts.com/ LDJ exhibit (Logostyle.jpg)
-Like the underlying font and some of the sketchiness/ stars/ dots/ etc. but in its’ original format is way too busy/ messy
-Needs to be cleaned/lightened up with minimal scribble/ sketchiness.

C) What we like the logo to look like:
-Need to coordinate with existing wallpaper design (background.jpg)
-The logo should incorporate a tagline and a bug icon – like general layout attached below
-Scribbled line between logo and bug is supposed to look like a wire/ trail.
-Attached is an idea to inspire the designer- LogoIdea.jpg

2. Avatar/ icon using mouse/bug reference:
-Would like to morph a wired mouse and a bug
-Icon recognizable as media button (same shape as facebook, but just with wired bug icon) - this can be added to sites that may want to link to us.
-Attached is a powerpoint slide with pictures we gathered with interesting bugs that can resemble a mouse (Inspiration Bug Logo Design_r2.pptx).
