Unique Wedding Invitations
Planning your wedding should be something that you do only once and you want everything to be perfect. Every detail, from your selection of venue to the fragrance of the flowers on display, matters. And of course you want these details to be a lovely reflection of the personalities of the persons celebrating their love and devotion. The invitations you select may well be the first glimpse your far-away family members have of your Dearly Intended and you want that first glance to be an accurate one.
If you and your beloved aren't the stuffy, traditional type there's simply no reason your wedding invites should be, either. Forget fancy, formal engravings and go for something that suits the two of you happily. Say the giddy couple is devoted to skydiving. Perhaps they're intending to be wedded while free falling wouldn't it be cool to design invitations that coordinate with that idea? Having the RSVP cards printed on squares of parachute silk might be a fun way to go. Maybe the pairing partners are Gypsies at heart; in that case, a Tarot-themed invitation would be a delightful choice.
If the bride-to-be and her betrothed are artistically inclined they could enjoy designing their wedding invitations together. With the advent of computer programs that can practically draw themselves, even the less talented can make a perfectly wonderful wedding invitation. If the couple decides to go with a traditional sort of invitation, tucking a little something different into each envelope can add a unique touch specific to the marrying couple. A white feather adds zero weight or dimension to the mailing and will be remembered. Plotting to wed in Las Vegas? A poker chip slipped into each envelope would be a fun idea.
If everything goes as intended, you'll only be inviting your friends and family to ONE wedding, so you might as well make every detail as special as you can and that includes how you invite your guests. Check out a few scrapbooking stores for inspiration. Stores like these are chock-full of flat, envelope-friendly ideas- little somethings to tuck in along with a map and RSVP card. Stay focused on your love and remember to have fun.
