Your wedding invitation sets the tone for your entire celebration – it’s the first glimpse your guests will have of your special day. When designing these pieces of paper, remember that elegance lies in the details.

The Essential Do’s

1.Do embrace timeless elements like high-quality paper stock, letterpress printing, or delicate foiling for a first impression that sets the tone for your special day.

2.Do consider incorporating your wedding’s color palette subtly through envelope liners or design accents to create a cohesive design that reflects your style.

3.Do order extra invitations for keepsakes and last-minute additions to avoid the stress and expense of reprinting.

4.Do mail your invites 8-10 weeks before destination weddings, giving guests ample time to plan their travel and accommodation.

Important Don’ts

1.Don’t overcrowd the invitation with unnecessary information – save details about accommodation and activities for separate cards to keep your design clean.

 2. Don’t use multiple fonts that can make your invitation look busy; instead, stick to two complimentary typefaces for a sophisticated appearance.

3. Don’t include registry information on the main invitation, as this can appear presumptuous and detract from the formality of your announcement.

Making It Personal

Perhaps most importantly, do let your invitation tell your love story. Whether through a custom monogram, a meaningful quote, or an elegant motif that reflects your destination, these personal touches transform a simple invitation into a treasured keepsake that sets the stage for your unforgettable celebration.
