Everything
about your wedding, starting with your wedding
invitations, should reflect your own personal
style. Now, more than ever, couples are doing
everything they can to make their wedding day
uniquely personalized.
You and your fiancé chose the location, theme
and colors of your wedding based on your
personal preferences. Since your wedding
invitations are an introduction to your wedding,
they should reflect your choices and ultimately
your personalities and styles.
It used to be that wedding invitations were
always very traditional in their color and
appearance. Today, wedding invitations come in a
vast array of exciting colors, styles, sizes and
themes to reflect the creativity of modern
wedding couples.
Not to say traditional is out of date, but today
your options are truly unlimited. There are
choices based on seasons, hobbies, color
combinations, themes, ceremony locations, ethnic
backgrounds, flowers, etc. Your wedding
invitations can have a
modern contemporary look or they might feature
photos of youngsters sharing tender moments.
Your choices don't end with the wedding
invitation itself. There's the font style
and ink color. Again, there is an impressive
selection of font styles to fit any type of
wedding design. Just keep in mind you want to
choose a style that your guests will find easy
to read. The more script the style, the more
difficult it usually is to read. Colored ink
choices are not quite as abundant as font
styles, but there are still plenty
to accommodate your chosen wedding colors.
Here are some questions for you to consider when
choosing your wedding invitation style:
* In what type of setting are you getting
married - church, formal, casual, outdoor,
destination?
* What is the color scheme of your wedding?
* Is there an overall theme to your wedding?
* Do you want to incorporate a specific ethnic
or religious theme?
* In what season will your wedding take place?
* What type of flowers are you having in your
wedding?
* Do you want to include your photo on your
wedding invitations?
* What is your wedding invitation budget?
Another great idea for personalizing your
wedding invitations is to include a favorite
line of poetry, a beloved quotation, a
particular Bible verse, or words from a special
song. Many times the company who prints your
invitations will also have a large selection of
small verses to choose from. Just be sure your
chosen wedding invitation style will have enough
room for these extra lines of printing.
Your wedding invitations should be both
beautiful and uniquely personal, just like your
wedding ceremony. With all of today's gorgeous
choices, you're sure to find exactly what you
desire.
