Top 10 Ways to Create a Unique Wedding Invitation

There is something exciting about opening your mailbox to find a beautiful wedding invitation waiting for you! Invitations give you a glimpse of the bride and groom’s personality and sets the tone for the wedding! However, it’s no secret that digging through samples can be overwhelming for many brides. After hours of sorting through sample after sample, everything starts looking the same. Lucky for you we have compiled a list of several ways to make your invitations stand out!

  1. Use beautiful handwritten calligraphy as your font on your invitation. This not only ensures that your invitation will look like nobody else’s, but it gives your invitation an instant custom feel for very little cash

  2. Upgrade your paper with one of our thick 100% cotton papers, handmade paper with torn edges, or add a custom shape with die-cut edges!

  3. Spice things up with an envelope liner 

  4. Add your family crest

  5. Add custom artwork of your ceremony venue

  6. Showcase your hometown pride with custom artwork of the city skyline

  7. Using your color story from your florals and bridesmaids dresses, give your guests a glimpse of what’s to come by incorporating elements of that theme. This can be done with edge painting, choosing a unique ink color for your printing or incorporating the florals into your design with a watercolor painting... just to name a few. Having trouble coming up with a theme? no worries! we can get our creative juices flowing to help you come up with the perfect theme for your event.

  8. Add a custom painting or sketch of your precious pooch - we can add this to even the most traditional invitations with a custom postage stamp or a wax seal!

  9. If you are having a destination wedding, incorporate elements from the destination in your suite

  10. Create a custom map. Not only is this a unique feature, but it is also practical for out-of-town guests. Consider adding hotel options, your favorite restaurants or fun things to do

Pro tip: If you love the traditional style of invitations, but still want your wedding suite to show off you and your groom’s personalities,  save-the-dates, reply cards, and other day-of details are the perfect way to do this without giving up the traditional style!
