When you order wedding invitations, you can have them pre-printed so they include your names and all the details of your wedding and reception, or you can fill them in youself. Obviously, the pre-printed variety are more expensive than the kind you print yourself.
If you are having a smaller wedding, you can individualize your invitations by making them yourself. Now that scrapbooking is a favorite hobby for many people, the range of paper and accessories avilable is huge and you are sure to find what you're looking for. Many scrapbooking and speciality paper stores now also include a range of ready-to-put-together invitations with the paper, ribbons and trimmings included, so with some imagination and flair you can create your very own personalized invitations.
When you hand make your invitations there are no limits to what you can do to add your own creative touch. Some of the more popular themes include:
- Photos of the happy couple
- Calligraphy accents
- Paper flowers or cut-outs
- Poems, verse or prose
- Rhinestones, sequins or glitter
- Gold or silver accents.
You can also use your PC to either create your wedding invitations or add the finishing touches. Now that most people have access to a variety of innovative software programs, you can play around and create all sorts of fascinating images and fonts to individualize your cards.
Not everyone has the creative flair or the desire to hand-make their invitations, so if you would prefer to buy your wedding invitations, or have them specially printed, you will most likely still need to add the names of each guest to the invitation. Once again, this is when your PC can come in handy, or purchase a good quality gold or silver pen to print each guest's name. If you would like to try your hand at calligraphy or an interesting writing style, print off a font character sheet from your computer to practice with.
Hand delivered wedding invitations add a special touch and help save you money on postage.
