When you are organising a wedding, choosing invitations may not seem like the most important job, but getting the invitation right is not as easy as it sounds. Here we look at the latest trends in wedding invitations, so you can get the design spot on.
Choosing invitations
Deciding who to invite to your wedding is an important decision and factors such as type of wedding, venue and budget will all play a part. Someone who might not have had trouble with the budget for her wedding was the grand-daughter of a Russian billionaire, who recently had Elton John and Mariah Carey playing at the event, at a cost of £3.5 million according to the Daily Mail. If your wedding budget is more modest, then don’t panic. There are wedding invitations out there to suit all tastes and budgets.
Latest trends
If you want your invitations to have a modern slant, then try using bold graphics with geometric patterns. Alternatively, you could go with softer watercolours which are more subtle and could be coordinated with other parts of your wedding. For something equally subtle but in a different way, you could try adding a pattern to the inside of the invitation envelope. Parts of this could then be replicated on the invite itself. If you are looking for a more traditional invite, the use of calligraphy for the wording or the addition of a custom monogram for you and your partner are both great ideas.
Invitations that look traditional in all but colour are becoming more and more popular. Rather than using white or cream, you can use the invitations to give your guests an idea of the colour scheme for the wedding. Alternatively, invitations that use metallic foil can add a touch of glitz and glamour to the occasion.
As great as the latest trends are, you might want your invitations to coordinate with the general theme of your wedding. In this case, you could opt for handmade wedding invitations such as those by Looney Lizard Creations (https://www.looneylizardcreations.co.uk/handmade-invitations/), so you know that you will be getting something that exactly meets your needs.
Hopefully, this has inspired you in terms of what sort of invitations to choose for your own wedding. Whatever type of wedding you are having, there is bound to be an invitation to suit.
