Choosing your wedding invitations provides the perfect opportunity for you and your intended to express your personality as a couple to everyone who means the most to you. The people on your guest list already know and love you and will appreciate receiving invitations that convey the essence of who you are. That's why you'll want to take extra care to select a design that will add that special touch to the ceremony and reception you're planning. That way, you and those closest to you will look forward to the day from the moment the invitations are sent.
Personalizing your wedding invitations can be done in several ways. By varying such features as color and style of your basic invitation design, its accents, and the font style you use for your wording, you can create a multitude of possible combinations that will give you more options for making your invitations truly your own. Textures will also play a part in designing your invitations, and you'll want to decide whether to use raised or flat lettering or choose smooth or textured design elements in your basic invitation or create texture through added design accents.
The details of your event can, of course, also be customized, and the wording of the verse that comes with the template you've chosen can generally be modified to fit your personal tone and the sentiments you want to express. Inner and outer envelopes will often already come in coordinating colors with liners to match, though you can further personalize these by choosing different color combinations and save yourself a great deal of time by having your name and return address printed on the outer envelope.
Other ways you may choose to personalize your wedding invitations might be by using lined inner envelopes, selecting the appropriate type of invitation fold that most closely represents your personal style, and by adding a ribbon to accent your invitation and make it artistically "you." You'll make a fabulous first impression by choosing the right basic invitation style from which you may then begin building the perfect visual representation of your relationship with your soon-to-be-spouse and the beautiful vision you have for your future.
For the modern wedding, designs such as Love Birds and Burst of Love can create a beautiful color contrast that truly makes your event's details stand out while impressing your guests with your great sense of style. These two designs depict some of the most beautiful parts of nature—birds and flowers—giving them to your guests to enjoy.
If you'd like to create a striking yet fun design, why not bring out your more playful side by starting with the vintage look and style of Perfect Paisley. This lovely style features an attractive band of paisley along the bottom of the invitation with your wedding details at the top. An optional satin ribbon tied around the paisley section creates a truly distinctive design that your guests will love. Reply cards feature a matching paisley border, which frames your guests' RSVPs, confirming the importance of the people who send them.
If you like paisley but prefer a more modern, streamlined look, you may decide to go with Perfect Paisley Duet. This set's long, narrow invitation card sports the paisley band across the top instead of the bottom and, as with the invitations described above, you may also add a decorative touch by tying a swatch of satin ribbon across the paisley band. Your initials are printed above the band with your invitation wording appearing below it. The paisley-framed RSVP card described above completes this set, giving you a great start toward creating the invitation of your dreams.
Other attractive invitation designs include Always & Forever, with its graceful damask pattern and solid-colored band accent; Blooming, with its simple, minimal floral design against a solid background; American Dream, with its bold spray of large blossoms splashed across the invitation top; and Endless Embrace, an elegantly classic invitation style featuring a completely solid-colored card displaying the families' initials in ornate lettering across the top and tastefully placed design accents that make the event details stand out.
Other components you may decide to use to further personalize your wedding invitations are reception cards, thank-you cards, multi-purpose cards, menu cards, place cards, escort cards, and programs. Choosing the right combination of items can help make your wedding invitations—like your wedding—distinctly yours.
Many invitation designs such as those mentioned above are 100 percent ecologically friendly, using a digital printing process that eliminates waste. The paper used is often 100 percent recycled post-consumer waste, making you feel as good about your contribution to the environment as you do about the lovely invitations you.
Now is the time to let your creativity run free. As you plan your special day, allow yourself the luxury of choosing just the right invitation design, adding just the right accents and assembling all the right accessories to make your wedding invitations uniquely you.
