Wedding invitations are the first great impression guests will see and know how the wedding will turn out. The guests will need to know whose getting married, the location of the wedding and the time of the event. You will want to find invitations that will reflect your unique and personal style. The choices are endless. The appearance of the cards and colours are important.
You may want traditional/classic invitations:
Classic white and black are traditional but perhaps very boring. The information is what’s important. The cards will just be tossed in the trash anyways. You want to present your sense of style and flair in the cards. Consider off white or cream with grey, silver or black engravings. Cotton paper is the most commonly used. Hire a hand addressed calligrapher for a most traditional aspect of the invitations. You can have silver or gold borders also use paneled stationary.
You may choose a modern/contemporary style of invitations:
Modern invitations offer a creative and fun way to make them. You can use any colour you want with the modern invitations. You can also have any shapes or sizes for the invites and envelopes. You can go crazy with the colours and themes. Try soft colours, such as pink and light blue, yellow and orange, brown and yellow, etc. Open your mind to the limitless possibilities available.
Destination of your honeymoon invitations:
Here is a new trend to consider. Choose cards that will incorporate the location of your honeymoon. Say, if you are going to a hot location and the beach, go with tropical flowers and island aqua colours of the waters. If you are off to the mountains or woods, use Hunter greens, browns, deep colours. Think trees, pinecones and wild animals. Consider using seeded flower paper as well. You want a terrific, unique, natural and handmade look to the invitations.
Your wedding stationary:
You need other items besides just the invitations. You will need the RSVP cards, announcements if necessary, thank you cards and name place cards, also itinerary if applicable. Use the same design and theme for all of these items.
Take your time and pick out the right wedding invitations that you really want. These invites are the first thing your guests will see and reflects the overall wedding day.
