Ideas on Creating Your Own Wedding Stationery Invitations

One of important parts of your wedding planning is wedding stationary. The stationary comes in several uses, for invitation or simple thank you notes. Your guests will know the formality as well as the theme of your wedding from the stationary. The wedding stationary invitations come in several types, ranging from simple, cream-colored card stock to bright, patterned papers.

If you have a little creativity and plan to choose cost effective stationary, you can create your own wedding stationary invitations. This is a fun way to personalize your wedding stationary and surprise your guests with unique-personalized stationary. To do this project, you may need a computer, a graphic design software program, a printer, paper card stock or other types of paper.

Ideas for Wedding Stationery

To create your own wedding stationary invitations, you need quality, beautiful papers and embellishments. Here are some paper types and other things that you may need to complete your project.

1. Solid Card Stock: solid card stock is a perfect choice for a simple, traditional invitation. Choose vibrant, brightly colored card stock for more casual wedding, or white or cream for formal, elegant wedding.
2. Patterned Paper: choosing patterned paper will help you make your wedding stationary more visually interesting than using a solid colored paper.
3. Vellum: to give your invitation a frosted, elegant look, consider using vellum for your wedding stationery.
4. Ribbons or Cutout Embellishments: make your paper look more visually interesting by using fabric accents, such as ribbons or cutout embellishments to add detail to your wedding stationery.
5. Photo cards: photo cards are a perfect choice for less formal stationary and a simple way to show off your love.
6. Custom Stamps: using custom stamps is an easy way to apply designs or images to bulk invitations repeatedly.
