Planning a wedding is incredibly exciting, but it can often be a bit stressful as well.You have to think abouta million little details to make sure that long-awaited day is perfect!
To make this process a little easier for you, we've put together a short guide on what to look for when choosing wedding invitations.
Invitations are one of the first tangible items you’ll need to choose when planning a wedding, and they give guests their first impression of the nature of the celebration. How can you create invitations that reflect your personality and suit your upcoming wedding celebration?
First, decide on the style of the party and choose invitations that match it. Are you planning a romantic manor house wedding or a boho-style beach wedding? The invitations should reflect this in their design to create a harmonious whole. You can find inspiration on social media as well as on platforms like Pinterest.
For modern-style wedding invitations, choose a simple and timeless font; for a fall wedding, play with colors to create a theme inspired by fall leaves, for example. If you’ve already decided on your wedding colors, be sure to use them on the invitations as well.
There are many ways to create unique invitations.
For example with a choice of paper You can give your invitations a simpler or more elaborate look. When choosing paper, you can specify, for example, the paper's thickness, shade, and texture.
Thicker paper always gives an invitation a more elegant look, and textured paper can add a romantic touch to an invitation.
If you'd like to add a touch of elegance, you can have all or part of the text printedusing foil stamping.
Foil printing reflects light and creates a glossy effect that gives the invitation a luxurious look. However, it’s important to keep in mind that with foil printing, all invitations are printed on a single plate, which means you cannot add guests’ names, for example.
Letterpress printing—in which the letters are pressed into the paper—gives invitations a very modern look. Letterpress can also be combined with foil stamping, for example, to achieve an even more distinctive final result.
In addition to the content of the invitations, you can also add a personal touchwiththe envelope,a wax seal, ora ribbon. With a wax seal, you can attach a sprig of your wedding flowers to the envelope. These little details make the overall impression of the invitation much more romantic and create a “wow” effect for the recipient.
