Wording Your Wedding Invitation Series Part 2 of 2Check out the amazing 1st part of this wedding invitation wording series.

Every bride knows how important the wording for her wedding invitation is. I understand that part of the difficulty of choosing your wedding invitation design is deciding on the proper wording choice. And depending on what type of wedding ceremony and celebration you are planning, this can be a confusing task.

Here are a couple more great ideas on how to properly word your wedding invitations

Choose the Font

Choosing the right font to word your wedding invitations is the fun part. With so many different styles, sizes and colors to choose from, this is the more artistic aspect of wedding invitation wording. Remember to select a font that not only adequately reflects your desired wedding theme, but matches your wedding’s overall design aesthetic.

Proof Read Rigorously

The person that best knows the way the bride and groom’s family names are spelled, the venue’s address, name and the times and dates, is you. No matter how professional your wedding invitation printers are, make sure when they send you your proofs that you properly read and edit (as necessary) all of your wedding invitation wording.

If you have any questions or concerns about writing your wedding invitation wording, please feel free to ask our wedding invitation experts.

Unique weddings require custom wedding invitation fonts.

After choosing between several different letterpress wedding invitation designs, finally sending out your letterpress wedding invitations to all of your guests is a relieving and happy thought. Your letterpress wedding invitation design should give your guests all of the appropriate information, including date, time and location, but often it is in the little details that they gather their expectations for your wedding event.

Traditional Weddings

A classic, sophisticated font creates a timeless ambiance and sets the stage for a formal wedding ceremony. When planning a traditional wedding, keep in mind time-honored fonts, such as Adobe Caslon, for your letterpress wedding invitations. Cursive fonts enhance these distinguished styles, and create an elegant tone that your guests are sure to pick up on.

Contemporary Weddings

Modern brides are gravitating increasingly toward contemporary fonts to match the casual and laid-back atmosphere of wedding ceremonies today. A fun font can encourage your guests to have a more relaxed attitude about your upcoming special day.

Unconventional Weddings

Destination weddings are the perfect opportunity to go all-out with your letterpress wedding invitation font. Different venues might already set a certain tone, and carrying it through to your letterpress wedding invitation is both appropriate and lots of fun. For unconventional wedding ceremonies, look into fonts that are not commonly used.

The font you choose makes all the difference in how your guests respond to your letterpress wedding invitation, so don’t overlook the little details!

How to Find Affordable Wedding Invitations Online

Everyone bride tries to find ways to save money on their wedding invitations. But finding affordable wedding invitations does not mean you should sacrifice the quality, beauty and elegance that you have always wanted. To help budget brides find the affordable wedding invitations they are dreaming of, I am going to give you a short list of easy suggestions that will help you save money.

Shop Around

When looking for affordable and unique wedding invitations online, make sure to ask several different printers what their prices are and compare what they are offering to the cost of the invitations. Be sure to request samples to ensure the print quality.

Specials on Letterpress

The best way to find affordable and exquisite wedding invitations  is to find specials on letterpress wedding invitations online. Not all printers offer season specials, but working with the ones that do can end up saving you hundreds of dollars.

RSVP postcards

Instead of printing an additional RSVP card and envelope set, combine the two pieces and use an RSVP postcard. Budget savvy brides are moving toward the RSVP postcard because it offers them an opportunity to have the unique and beautiful wedding invitation set they have always wanted at a more affordable price.

Do It Yourself
