More than any lavish decorations or delicious menus, the presence of your family and friends matters the most. Create a personalized invitation for everyone in your guest list. You may forget to create engagement party invitations or invites for your elopement announcements but not for the big day itself. For unique and stunning wedding invitation designs, check these tips and samples below:

Create a classy and elegant design

Use sans serif or script fonts and place intricate designs on the sides. If possible, avoid using more than two colors on your invites. This technique doesn’t only create elegant invitations, but it also ensures readability.

Go for folded invitations to maximize space

Flat invitations do work. But, if you want to include more details without making the invitation crowded, try using folded ones. Folded wedding invitations provide you added area where you can place intricate designs and write important information. You can place a simple decoration on the cover and write the rest inside.

Use unusual colors

Invitations commonly use light colors for the background and stronger colors for the fonts. You can always choose the other way. Capture your guest’s attention by printing invitations with bright dominant colors.

Attach necessary add-ons

Send your wedding invitations along with RSVP cards to help you confirm the number of attendees. Include a small map or a sketch of your wedding venue in your invitations to guide invitees to locate the place. Sample menu coupons may also be helpful to give guests an idea about what to expect in your reception.
