Whether
your looking for free wedding invitations, cheap wedding
invitations or expensive wedding invitations, you still
face three basic decisions: what kind of stationary,
print and design to use, the wedding invitation wording
and the question how to go about this project. This
guide will provide you with some useful insights.
if
Your looking for cheap or free wedding invitations,
you should consider making your own wedding invitations.
If you know how to use graphic programs like Photoshop,
and you use a high quality printer and the right paper,
you can produce beautiful, personal, professional looking
and free wedding invitations. now you only have to figure
out the wedding invitations wording and graphics.
If
you want more expensive wedding invitations the sky
is the limit. I read somewhere that the most expensive
invitations ever were 20 pages long and incased in silver.
The other option is the traditional one: Go to your
local print shop and get the job done. They should have
many wedding invitation samples and wedding invitation
designs for you to choose from. The third option is
of course to use the internet. There are many sites
that offer a complete wedding invitation solution. you
can choose the stationary, wording, design etc' and
they will produce the invitations and send them to you.
Here is one example, but if you choose your search terms
wisely, you will find many more excellent websites.
And
now a few words about wording: wedding invitation wording
is a tough subject to tackle. There is a huge variation
in tastes. Some people like to be formal and traditional,
others want to be a bit more wild and original. Again
the net offers many wedding invitations samples that
might help and inspire you. You can start with this
cute site, that offers many different examples of wording
for wedding invitations.
And
last but not least, general conventions concerning wedding
invitation etiquette: Usually, the invitations are sent
between a month and a month in a half in advance. But
it's quite all right to send the invitations earlier.
often you would like to include with the invitations
additional items, such as a map for directions, and
in some cases transportation and accommodation information.
Along with the wedding invitations, you may want to
include a response card and an envelope for it. The
response card is mostly used so you know how many people
to expect in the wedding ceremony. please note that
these days you can consider asking your guests to respond
by email. Just don't forget to include your email address
in the invitation. good luck. |
