Choosing Unique Wedding Invitations
That's it, you have everything covered. You've found the perfect
man to marry, the perfect ring, and you've selected the perfect
day for the wedding! Now all you need are the perfect wedding
invitations to send to your guests. But you're a stylish
woman, so you'll most definitely want to announce your big day
with style. Now how do we go about it?
Get personal! Add a glossy photograph to your invitation. Did
you know that you can have your image printed directly on the
invitation card? You can. Your invitation's text can be printed
on the translucent overlay and your photograph can be displayed
beneath it. Guests can keep the whole wedding invitation card as a keepsake.
If you're not too revved up on that idea, you can always insert
a regular recent photograph for all of your friends and loved
ones. Or, if you really want to be unique-have your faces
printed on a custom envelope seal! That'll make everyone say
"oh, how different!" Whichever way to you about it, your loved
ones will love to see a recent photograph of you and your
soon-to-be spouse.
So while we're thinking about custom envelope seals , let's get
truly unique and consider the envelopes for your invitation.
Think Vellum! That's right, the same translucent paper that can
be seen inside of invitations, can now we used for the envelope
itself! This sheer paper wraps around your card like gift-wrap.
It's very simple, yet very elegant and unique. Have your
recipients addresses printed on it for a striking and bold
effect.
For couples who may not see family on a daily basis: get
personal. Whether you've been studying abroad, or you're just
across the miles-now is an important time to fill your family in
with details. Make your own personal wedding website to coincide
with your wedding invitations. Have the website address printed
on every invitation so your families can log onto it. There's
many things you can place on your website, such as the story of
how you met your spouse-to-be, a daily planner (so guests can
see how much effort you're putting into the big day), your
bridal registry information, contact information/address where
you are holding the wedding, , and a guest book (to see who
actually logged on!).
Your invitations, website, place-cards, wedding programs, and
thank you notes should all carry the same theme. The designs
shouldn't really differ much from one another. By doing this,
you're making a bold statement that says you're focused in your
choices. After all, this is YOUR wedding and you want to look
ready, confident, and focused.
