Why not make your own DIY Wedding invitations at the fraction of the cost of ordering from a stationer.
Have a go at making your own invitations you will be surprised at how creative you can be. Everyone knows something about art. You may not realise how talented you are until you try.
First of all by put all your ideas and thoughts down on a piece of plain paper.
You can research different types of wedding invitations on the internet or if you have time you can browse the high street stationers for ideas.
Nearly everyone has a computer in their house today or knows friend or family members who are willing to let you have some spare time to research your designs on the net.
You can buy ready made DIY Wedding invitation kits from most arts and crafts stalls and stores close to you.
Your colours could match with your bridesmaid’s dresses, flowers, cake.
Or you could choose a different colour altogether.
Your choice is endless.
Start with the simple love heart as your theme.
Draw your love hearts onto the paper then experiment with colours.
Draw some borders or use some leaf pens. Perfect.
You may prefer a flower design. Visit a garden centre look around for inspiration. Take a photograph of a flower or plant that may catch your eye. The way the sun shines down on the flower or the way the rains catches the colour. Print the photos off and glue onto a plain card. Wonderful, fun and thoughtful.
There are plenty of gardening magazines in supermarket selves. Next time you are in shopping stop and have a browse through the magazines. You never know you may just find the perfect one.
Another front cover idea is a pair of gold wedding rings.
You can make the invitation similar to an envelope and have the rings interlocking as a seal on the middle of envelope similar to a royal seal.
A recent wedding invite we received on the front page showed a photograph of the happy couple on a recent trip overseas with a beautiful back drop.
On the reverse of the wedding invitation the couple had placed the wedding invitation words.
A unique, simple and fun way to send out invitations without causing too much of a headache in trying to choose the theme.
If neither of the bride or groom have the confidence to draw or paint their front cover. You can always choose a pretty post card or print which sets your heart racing and you think this is the one.
On the reverse of the card you can write each invite individually. Or you can type the wedding invitation onto an A5 piece of paper and either glue onto the card and then place both the card and invite into an envelope.
If you have decided not to draw your own front cover you can decorate a plain piece of card with stickers and ribbons and flowers from craft stores.
The important thing is too remember is to have a go at making your own DIY wedding invitations. The saving in costs alone will hopefully prompt you to try.
Good Luck.
