The wedding invitation is an expensive part of your budget that’s not necessary to spend so much on. It is an item that will likely just be tossed away. You two will probably be the only ones who have a special emotional attachment to it. The printing costs for your invitations are huge so it’s just not worth it to use a printing house when you can do it yourself.
Creating your own wedding invitations gives them a special flair and look. You can create them the way you want and personalize the designs. Think outside the box and go for some super creative ideas. Here are three terrific ideas that are inexpensive and easy to make.
You can make hand made wedding invitations:
A hand made card shows your love and special care was put into making them. It will make your guests feel like you’ve put a lot of thought into the card just for them. You will save money at the same time. You can print out the card to save time and money. Some parts of them you can do by hand and it will have an extra special feel to it. You can create spectacular designs that will appear even better than a professional printing house.
You can use eCards:
eCards are a fairly new trend that is catching on fast. They are very cool. There are lots of websites out there to help you make your eCards. You create a card but it is not printed or posted. You send it to your guests electronically. This is a great way to use your imagination to add sounds and animations to the card. They can send you an R.S.V.P. or have it linked to a web page to reply to your invite.
You can post a Video:
Here is a fairly new concept that is pretty much out there, but so what, dare to be different! There are some great videos done for wedding invitations. You can record a short video to invite your guest. Be creative and have fun. You can be serious or funny. Upload your video to a website such as facebook, myspace, YouTube or your own website. Keep it private of course. Give your guests the link to check it out. Have fun with it and create something very special and unique. This adds to the personal touch you want.
