When you create your own wedding invitations there are some important things to remember, so I have created this list to help those brides to be whom want to save money by creating their own wedding invitations. If you choose to become a freelance wedding invitation designer, or simply choose to help a friend or make your own wedding invitations these ideas are great.
Wedding invitations can be funny, serious, whimsical, or solemn, which is very nice. Why not make your wedding invitations truly personalized and save money as well.
I have been creating wedding invitations for local couples for years now, by using my computer. The purchase price is just a one dollar per invitation from me, but they get so much more, making it a good bargain for them.
A professional printer will run you a lot of money, but by having a friend or ever do it yourself wedding invitations you can save a lot of money. The bride gets to design her own invitations so that they are uniquely her.
Here are the free extras I toss in every wedding invitations order; perhaps they can help you as well.
Hotel cards, on a sheet of paper, which can be included in the wedding invitations envelope I list local hotel names, addresses, and phone numbers. I also list if they are pet friendly hotels, and any other information, which I think, will benefit the guests who are not from the local area. I simply ask the bride how many of these invitations are going to be mailed to people out of the local area, and create that many cards.
RSVP cards are usually included in every wedding invitations envelope, but I go ahead and create them a little bit differently. I include a telephone number as well as a cell phone number for those who wish to accept the invitation, but I also include an email address so guests can email to accept the invitation.
Directional Cards are always a great thing to add to the wedding invitations envelope for those guests who are not familiar with the area. On these cards give plain directions on how to get to the church, or reception area and use local landmarks if needed.
Reception cards are only included in some wedding invitations envelopes, and these could state that the reception is non-smoking, adults only, or a back yard barbeque. One bride to be wanted only family members to bring a dish to pass, so I created reception cards that stated bring a dish to pass and it was only added to family envelopes.
No matter what kind of wedding invitations you choose to make, using these ideas you can create memorable cards.
