From simple town crier announcements and letters delivered on horseback, the humble wedding invitation has certainly come a long way since its meager beginnings.Bridal couples in the modern era are now personalizing their invitations with all types of different methods to better reflect their personalities and give a glimpse of what their wedding style will be.
The options available are endless and there is no excuse nowadays not to have an invitation that represents your day and tastes. Some ways brides are using to achieve this are:
Themes: from a colour scheme that runs throughout the wedding (eg. bridesmaids dresses, the cake, wedding favors, the aisle decorations) or a time of year (eg. winter) or location (eg. tropical destination) theme.
Logos / monograms: using your initials or significant details such as the wedding date to create a logo or monogram that represents your union.
Embellishments: ribbon, lace, flowers, elaborate scrapbook stickers adorn many invitations.
Invitation style: card, gate-fold, tri-fold, pocket-fold, presented in a box... any shape is possible and available.
The fact is that most things are achievable either as a DIY project or with the help of one of the numerous wedding invitation stylists available online.
The only restraints are your imagination, the level of formality you want to achieve, money and time and with the wedding invitation being such an important facet of any wedding day, it is becoming more evident to most people that greater effort is needed in this area than ever before.
