Your wedding day is a major milestone in your life and should be treated as such. It is all about celebrating the life you are starting with your spouse and sharing this joyous union with family and friends. However, there is a lot of planning and effort that goes into the initial preparations for making your wedding ceremony and reception happen. Although it may not be your first concern – choosing a venue, a date and a guest list come first! – choosing wedding invitations should be a high priority when you are putting your ceremony together.
Here are some of the elements you need to decide upon when selecting your custom wedding invitations:
Theme – Every wedding has a theme, whether it fully encompasses a ceremony or is based on the colors being used during the proceedings. For the former, consider the locale of your wedding as a good starting point for your invitation’s design. Are you having a beach wedding? Then use an aqua backdrop with some light wave markings or a palm tree. For the latter, base the invitation on the planned bridesmaids dresses or floral arrangements.
Cost – When it comes to planning a wedding, perhaps the most important element of the day is the budget. Before the initial planning begins, every couple must decide how much money will be allotted for each piece of the wedding puzzle. This includes invitations, which need to be budgeted for, just like caterers or photographers. Find a custom printing website featuring a large selection of prices on invitations. This will help you immensely.
Paper – The paper you use for your invitations may not seem like a big deal, but it can affect the way your invites are received by guests. The paper you choose can also reflect on the type of ceremony you are having. If you want your ceremony to be regal and elegant, consider using parchment or double thick cardstock. Make sure you think about your paper choices before you start on design.
