Choosing the Perfect Wedding Invitation

How to select a Wedding Invitation design

It seems that with all of the different design and styles that are available for wedding invitations, it makes the choice much more difficult to make. You have to go through hundreds of different designs, sort out the ones you don't like, and then choose from the ones that caught your attention. It may make you a tad-bit frustrated at times, or even a little annoyed, but you’ll get no sympathy from us. Because it's all part of the fun of planning your wedding, so enjoy it, it'll only happen once in your life.

Here are some great tips on how to choose the right wedding invitation for your wedding.

This first tip may be able to save you a little time.

Imagine the perfect wedding invitation, the one that you would want to use for your wedding. Then draw it out on a piece of paper, doesn't matter that you aren't an artist, you only have to draw out a vague description of what it is you are looking for. Go for something that both you and your loved one would enjoy. It doesn't have to be a design; it could be scenery, or something of that nature. The important thing is you have an idea in your head of what you want. Now you have something solid to work with when you go out to shop for a wedding invitation. You can show it to the person that will be handling your invitations, and ask them if they have any designs that look similar to this.

Now if you don't know what you're looking for, or would rather choose from pre-set designs, it’s no problem. What we would recommend for this is to choose an invitation that best matches the couple (yes, this means you and your hubby), you as a couple have a certain personality and style, reflect that in the invitation.

Be Unique and Yourself

Be unique, be bold, and most of all… be yourselves and have that show in the invite.

It seems that the more time that passes, the more wedding invitations seem to stray from the traditional looking invites, to much more unique and custom designs. This is perfectly fine, don’t feel that your wedding invitation has to look a certain style, or done in traditional fashion, everything about your wedding should be exactly how you want it.

If the first two tips didn’t help you at all than this third one is a sure-fire way to help you pick out your invitation and it’s pretty simple. Match your wedding invitation to the theme of your wedding. If you are planning on having a luxurious elegant classy wedding, ask the person helping you to show you the most elegant designs they have and pick one and run with it.

The bottom line is the invitation you decide to go with should be the one you are happy with, if you pick one out and then question yourself about it, move onto another one.
