What do you think of my monogram? See the last post with UPDATED monogram

One of our book designers ( I work for a book publisher) created this monogram. I hope it posts.

Edited to ask: Does anyone think we should ditch the ampersand? Or keep it?

Re: My monogram

Thanks. She is going to add our full names in a printed font and the wedding date.

I think she also going to make one using these initials and the printed font to create the cover for our program,

There are actually lots of variations of monograms, depending on whether or not the bride is taking the groom's last name (I'm hyphenating)

Monogram actually means single letter or image.

I love it. I actually love the look of monograms but hadn't seen any that didn't use his initial (last name). I like this idea so much better!

Does anyone think it would look better without the ampersand?

Love it but yes, I think you should ditch the ampersand.

ETA: I like monograms with just the initial's...the ampersand adds a bit of informality to it - IMO.

Re: What do you think of my monogram?

hmmm, i like the ampersand, without it i think it would just look like someone's first and last initials

Re: What do you think of my monogram?

We are going to have our names printed under it, so everyone would be able to see whose initial is whose.

I will ask my friend (the designer) and see what she thinks. She's so awesome. I am inviting her to my wedding. I hope she comes.
