MillerK · January 29, 2015

Congratulations! Wedding invites are the essential part of wedding, this is the source from where guests gets the idea about the wedding program. I mean your guests should be well informed and invites should be delievered a decent gap from wedding,as they have to do the wedding shopping and save their date(most importantly).So,DECIDE what suits you.

And Relax,don't freak out.Best wishes!

Hi there! We never sent out "save the dates", we just reached out to our family and friends who we are inviting to tell them the week we are planning to go away. We picked the week based on when most of them could make it, so we didn't want to spend money on save the dates. Instead, we are splurging a bit more on our invitations.

I didnt go with the traditional "passport" or any themed type of invitation. Our wedding is themed just like an at-home wedding, but just on a beach instead! My colours are gold, burgundy, nude. (although our bridesmaid dresses are coral and boys are wearing navy, haha) - our decor colours are gold burgundy and nude. One of my bridesmaids is a graphic designer, so she made it all for me.

The body of our invites will be in gold foil, cursive writing. Our names will be in black. We are printing them on white linen paper, and our names are going to be in black letterpress. I don't realllllllyy know what it all means, my bridesmaid just sent me pictures and I approved haha. Our envelope will be black, and we are printing nice cursive labels for them.

It wont let me upload the picture for some reason, so just send me a PM and I will email it to you!!

Thanks everyone! I FINALLY made a decision. I ordered my invites and they should be out by the end of February. Our RSVP date is May 5th so that should give everyone plenty of time AND me plenty of time to get everything done!

Those sound so pretty! We aren't doing a beachy theme either. Our colors are tiffany blue, white, and gold and we just went with an invite off of Minted. It was under the "beach" category, but isn't beachy at all!!
