The invitations and other stationery which you choose for your wedding will help to set the tone. When you have a special theme or location, the invitations can be a great way to introduce your wedding to your guests. These are some tips on tailoring your wedding stationery to your theme.
Beach theme weddings are among the favorites of brides everywhere. Whether you will be heading off to a sunswept destination for your wedding, or simply putting on some great beach wedding jewelry and carrying a tropical bouquet in your backyard, there are some very special beach invitations available. Think about the type of beach wedding you intend to have – is is more classic with simple pearl jewelry and a tailored strapless dress on a New England beach with a lobster dinner on the sand, or it is going to be at a Caribbean resort, complete with steel drums and drinks in coconuts? For the first style, classic white invitations embellished with a red engraved lobster across the top would be ideal, or go with an invitation embellished with a bright hibiscus for the tropical wedding.
Winter Wonderland weddings are another hot theme, and one which translates easily into wedding invitations. Select crisp white stationery which is decorated with silver snowflakes. One of the prettiest versions of this would be to print the invitations on vellum laid over a snowflake patterned paper. Tie it together with a festive metallic silver ribbon or a red velvet bow for the perfect finishing touch. For your save the dates, what about using antique postcards depicting horse drawn sleighs in the snow? Simply lovely.
Spring will be here before we know it, and for a floral wedding theme, there are any number of gorgeous options for invitations. If your style is more natural and low key, select a handmade paper which has petals or dried flowers embedded in it. Layer a sheer vellum sheet over the top with the wedding information, since the flower paper is too bumpy to print on well. Finish it all off with a big fluffy bow in either a sheer organza ribbon or a gingham one. For a more formal wedding with a flower theme, select an invitation with an engraved floral design across the top and line the envelopes with a more exuberant floral paper. Another option is to create a custom monogrammed which is encircled in a wreath of flowers. This would be lovely for a very elegant wedding.
Having a vineyard wedding? Invite your guests with style! The most restrained option would be an invitation which features an engraved image of a bunch of grapes across the top (somehow a picture of a bottle of wine just does not feel bridal enough). Or get really creative, and design your wedding stationery to resemble vintage wine labels. This would be a wonderful way to really get your wedding theme across in a fun manner. Your guests will surely be in the spirit of things when they receive these special and unique invitations.
Wedding stationery can be classic, contemporary, or creative, depending on your personal style and the formality of the wedding. Whichever best suits your wedding, there are bound to many numerous invitations which can give your guests a preview of your wedding theme. From the bold to the subtle, your wedding stationery can be tailored to suit your wedding theme perfectly.
