Four Key Steps to Creating the Perfect Wedding Invitation

April 26, 2019 by Juliann

Everyone wants to make their wedding invitation stand out. Create your own by following the four simple tips below!

Most people who receive a wedding invitation in their mail see it as a pleasant surprise. But don’t you want to push things to the next level when it comes to your own wedding invites? Surely, you want your guests to feel excited once they find out about the good news.

From using an invitation printing service and creating your own custom illustrations to paper alternatives, you can now choose various ways to customize your wedding invitation. To save you from the trouble of searching for them, here is a list of tips you will surely find handy.

Pick the right theme

Your invitation gives your guests a hint of the overall concept of your wedding. That is why you should take the time to find the right design for it. Carefully consider the lettering, the color scheme, and the message of the letter, of course.

You should also think of a few ideas before making the final decision. It is best to carefully plan the layout of the invitation to save you time.

Add a piece of yourself

There is nothing more personalized than a handwritten letter containing a message or a few lines from your favorite poem, for example. You can add a line of your love poem at the uppermost part of the invitation to make your guests feel that it is a personal and romantic event. Then, you can consider adding a symbol to separate the poem from the rest of the invite text so it would not look like it is all over the place.

Meanwhile, instead of using a computer font, you can use your handwriting for the invite. All you need to do is to scan your handwritten message at high resolution. Doing so will make your invite more personal and welcoming at the same time.

Create a budget

One of the most crucial aspects of creating a personalized wedding invitation is your budget. You should allocate a budget for it and stick to it. You do not want to waste your time designing the best wedding invitation only to discover that it is way over your budget.

Consider the number of people that you will be inviting. Bear in mind that aside from the wedding invitation, you also must think about the other must-haves in your big day. Everything can add up quickly and can get quite spendy!

Time to DIY

Now that you have chosen the perfect design and figured out the number of guests who will be attending the event, it is time to get your creative juices flowing. One way you can keep things simple yet elegant is by incorporating a ribbon and placing it down the spine of your invitation.

Another way to decorate it is to use a fabric to act as a divider. You are only limited to your imagination. So, get your inspiration from the design that you selected and make it your own.

Weddings are such an intimate occasion that you would rather spend with your closest loved ones. So, instead of worrying about the tiny details, enjoy your day and celebrate!

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
