Affordable Letterpress Wedding invitations and a Bit of DIY
When it comes to finding elegant, affordable, and customizable wedding invitations sometimes the search can seem endless. With so many different online wedding invitation printers, brides can be overwhelmed with all the options. You want something that is beautiful, wont break the bank but also has a little custom personality that is unique for your wedding. To help you on your affordable, elegant and custom wedding invitation search, I have compiled a list of three important reminders that should help you on your journey.
Nothing satisfies the desire for elegant wedding invitations quite like letterpress printing. Letterpress wedding invitations designs hold an understated aesthetic that is par excellence in the wedding invitation arena. The deep impressions and bold designs make letterpress wedding invitations a must have if you want elegant, beautiful or unique wedding invitations.

Some brides steer away from letterpress printing because of the perceived added costs that they might incur. But it is very possible to find affordable letterpress wedding invitations by looking for specials or discounts from online printers. Make sure to ask the printers you are thinking of working with if they have any specials on letterpress wedding invitations before ordering, this could save you hundreds of dollars.

If you are looking to add a little custom flavor to your letterpress wedding invitation design, consider doing a little post production DIY to your envelopes and add an envelope liner. This gives your wedding invitations an added feel of personalization and uniqueness that is hard to achieve any other way. It is not that hard or time consuming, and we even have a short instructional video that explains in a step by step process exactly how to cut and insert your envelope liners.

Calligraphy, Formal, Elegant, Fun and Bilingual
When thinking about how to word your wedding invitation design, it is important to consider the effects that different font styles will have on your invitation set. Choosing the right font for your letterpress wedding invitation design can work wonders to dramatically enhance the appeal of your overall invitation set. So to help the brides that are searching for different ways to word your wedding invitations, I have come up with a simple little list that you can check out and see what you like.
Calligraphy
Calligraphy fonts are growing in popularity for fall brides. They display a classical sophistication that works wonders to beautify many invitation sets.

Formal
Formal fonts are a common choice for brides with simple, yet personalized and subtle in their beauty.

Elegant
While elegance is in the eye of the beholder, using a foil stamp or alternate color will greatly increase the quality of your invitation set.

Fun
Using a symbolic or themed elements from your wedding in your font always adds a little fun to the wedding invitation.

Bilingual
Many multicultural brides are choosing to have bilingual wedding invitations with two sets of wording so all of their guests are able to read them. If bilingual wedding invitations interest you, we are always more than pleased to help you find the font that looks just right for you.

Available in a plethora of printing methods; letterpress, offset, thermography and digital, the new Monica invitation set combines an almost baroque style script with delicate swirls. The elegant border adds a formal element that carries through to the different pieces of this stunning invitation set.

This timeless artisan creation is perfect for a formal or casual wedding. The festive Cranes Lettra pearl paper adds a special charm that takes this invitation from the world of ordinary to extra-ordinary.
