Your wedding invitations can be one of the most important things on your checklist when planning your big day. From shimmer stationary, gold foiled prints, rustic charms to classic textured linen, there are so many types of paper and designs to satisfy your artistic cravings.
Here are the current top trends in wedding invitations for some inspiration.
A Little Bit of Sparkle
Everything looks better with a bit of sparkle! Add a touch of sparkle this year with beautiful shimmer boards, glitter effects or even metallic foils. Either way, a little bit of sparkle is bound to look fabulous with any theme.
Wedding Stationery Sets
You can now coordinate your theme with all your wedding stationery, including save the date cards, RSVP cards, wishing well cards, thank you cards, table place cards, and menu cards. All you need is a fabulous theme and a great attitude!
The Artsy Designs
Abstracts, triangles, swirls, squares and circles – are now trending for modern wedding cards. It screams bold and hipster, yet can be given an elegant twist if printed on the right type of paper.
Embellished Designs
Elegant and unique embellishments are making a huge comeback this year. The subtle tones are perfect for fall or winter weddings and never seem to go out of style with its classic look.
The Chic and Rustic
For those who adore the rustic theme, there are plenty of crafty ideas to play around with. From wooden tags to lace patterns, you will be spoilt for choice!
Inserting Your Photos
There will be more than just smiles to share with the good old photo invitations. The only flaw is that you won’t be able to decide on a photo quickly. It’s not as easy as you think!
Nature’s Craft
Somewhat similar to chic and rustic, but with more of a nature element with a dash of greenery added to the invitations.
