As your wedding day approaches, you may wonder how to assemble your invitations. After all, you’ll want it to reflect the event with formality and elegance. If you’re overwhelmed by the process, this guide will help give you some ideas for your invitations. Here are a few tips to make the process go smoothly.
Story Stages
Choose your invitation style
There are a few different things to consider when selecting your invitation style. The first is the formality of the event. If you’re having a black-tie affair, you’ll want something more formal than if you’re hosting a barbecue. To match the tone, consider browsing through different wedding invitation templates and choosing one that fits the occasion. A fun, casual wedding might call for a less formal invite, while a traditional wedding would require something more refined. Once you’ve determined these factors, it’s time to start thinking about style. There are three main options: classic, modern, and whimsical. Classic invitations have a timeless look that will never go out of style. Modern invitations are sleek and minimalist, while whimsical invitations burst with personality and color.
Order a sample
If you’re looking for a specific invitation style, consider ordering a few samples to get an up-close look. Wedding invitation samples are a great way to see what the invitations will look like and to get an idea of how many you will need. Samples also give you the chance to see different fonts, colors, and paper options. This way, you can find the perfect invitation for your big day. Samples are also a great way to get ideas for your wedding. If you see an invitation that you like, but it’s not exactly what you want, you can use the ideas from the sample to create your own invitations.
Add details that incorporate your wedding’s theme
When assembling your wedding invitations, it’s fun to include little peeks into the aesthetics of the ceremony’s theme. If you are having a rustic-themed wedding, for example, you could incorporate leaves and vines into an earth-toned invitation. Similarly, if you are planning a glamorous black-tie affair, opt for sparkles and metallic finishes. Assembling your invitations using little details will help set the tone for your big day and make sure that all of your guests feel familiar with the overall aesthetic. Make sure the details are meaningful to you and your fiance. If your wedding is themed around a particular interest or hobby of yours, like travel or nature, be sure to include that in your invitations. This will help to set the tone for your wedding and give your guests a sneak peek at the type of celebration they can expect.
Make your wedding invitation assembly process more efficient
If you have a lot of invitations to work through, you’ll want to create an efficient process for writing addresses and stuffing the envelopes. Consider asking a friend or family member to help you out. One person could write addresses while the other places them in their respective envelopes. If you’re doing this alone, use a large table to create an assembly line of finished and unfinished envelopes. This will keep you organized while increasing efficiency.
Double-check addresses and formatting before sending them
Before sending your wedding invitations, make sure that the envelope addresses are written and formatted correctly. If the addresses are incorrect, the envelopes may not be delivered to the guests’ homes. To ensure that the envelopes are properly addressed, double-check them against your list of addresses. Then, make sure the font is legible, and the envelope is securely closed. You may also want to check if you included every part of your invitation, like an RSVP card.
Assembling wedding invitations is a chance for you to get your guests excited about your upcoming nuptials. By following these simple tips, your invitations will look polished and breathtaking.
