Your invitation sets the mood for your wedding. It gets people excited about your big
day. Invitations come in all shapes, sizes and colors these days, and with so many choices it would be hard not come up with something representative of your wedding. If you’re having trouble finding inspiration, fear not. Here are a few places to get started for a truly unique wedding invitation: 1. Your wedding basics. This includes date, season, location, venue and colors. This might be all you need for your dream invitation, but let’s keep going. 2. Your wedding details. You can incorporate flourishes of from any part of your wedding. The lace pattern in your dress to the flowers in your centerpiece to the poem you planned on using on the invitation can all serve as the starting point for your invitation. 3.You and your fiancé can also influence your invitations. Favorite hobbies? Your song? How you met? Your invitation doesn’t have to be about your wedding. It can be about you. 4. Your wedding theme. Whether you are planning a 1920s wedding, an ethnic wedding or a holiday wedding, they all have very specific themes which you can use for your invitation, and it lets guests know what to expect. As you can see, inspiration comes from every part of your wedding day. The sky is the limit, so don’t hold back. |
