Default logo for my mom's business

I'm making a logo for a website that will have information for brides-to-be who want to get married in the caribbean. The vibe is supposed to be a little bit classy.




Your opinions are greatly appreciated.

I'm feeling B1 fits the most, D1 is really nice but maybe for a different style business. Nice work and welcome

Im liking the style of B3 but dont think the seahorses will work with wedding logo..... maybe come up with a slightly different icon to position there? Say, a stylised ring?

Welcome to the forum too...

yeah D1 would be more departures but not classy, wedding like stuff...

B3 for me has the best strength, but that's maybe becuase I saw the sea horses as abstract wedding bells?

I like the seahorses - wouldn't they be better facing each other though (looks like they're getting divorced at the minute)... They could even end up making a subtle heart shape if they faced

I really lke A2 and B3

B3:The seahorses stand out really well..a good icon, I also think, to get them to face each other would be better, but it might not look as good...youll have to have a go and see.

A2:I like A2 as a starting point, the fonts work well I think, but it needs a mark of some sort..maybe incorporate the seahorses ...just a thought

oh yeh and welcome

Interesting trivia about the seahorse.. the female impregnates the male with her eggs, then she splits.. comes back sometimes around the birth.
The males tend to remain monogamous while she runs around spreading her eggs (not legs) to many other males.

Some things never change

Maybe I am out of place here, but I am not feeling any of them for Weddings or for the Caribbean. I think C1 is the closest that you have gotten.

On the plus side your type setting is quite good in all of them, and I suppose that adding colour to any of them might be able to make them feel more romantic tropical wedding.
