  1. Define Your Wedding Style The invitation is your guests' first peek at your wedding style. Along with listing the location and time of day, the invitation -- and, more specifically, its style -- hints to the formality of your wedding. Be is luxurious, classic, royal, vintage, quirky – ensure that it reflects your personality.
  2. Know Your Colors Think about your wedding colors too -- you may want to incorporate your colors and a motif into your wedding invitations & cards and then carry both through to the rest of your wedding stationery (like the luggage tags, menu cards and ceremony programs) for a cohesive look. Having a colour pallete definitely shows the amount of thought & effort put in to the design.
  3. Play With the Shape and Size Couples are also channeling more playful or modern vibes with circular, scalloped and square invitations. Various cuts, shapes & sizes add dimension & a twist to your stationery.
  4. Make Sure They're Legible As you consider colors and patterns, don't forget about the text -- the information you put on the invitation is the whole point of sending it out in the first place.
  5. Don't Crowd the Card List only the key points on your invitation: ceremony time and location, the hosts, the couple's names, the dress code (optional) and RSVP information. Trying to squeeze too much onto the invitation card can make it harder to read -- and it won't look as elegant. Simplicity is surely the ultimate form of sophistication!
  6. Start Early Your save-the-dates should go out four to five months before the wedding. It can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks -- or longer, depending on how fancy you go -- to print them. Aim to order your invitations about four to five months out so they're ready to mail six to eight weeks before the wedding. If you're having a destination wedding or marrying over the holidays, send out your invites even earlier (10 to 12 weeks before the wedding).
  7. Order Extra It's expensive to go back and print more invitations after the fact. Order enough invitations for your guest list, plus 25 extra in case you need to resend an invitation, want to put some aside as keepsakes And even if you're hiring a calligrapher to address your invitations, ask for extra envelopes in case of returned invites or addressing mistakes (calligraphers generally require an extra 15 to 20 percent).
  8. Don't Forget the Rest of Your Suite Order your menu cards, programs, chocolate / mithai boxes, gift bags and thank-you notes with your invitations. That way, your designer can include all of the pieces in one order, which may save you money and time. It's also a good way to ensure all your stationery has a cohesive look, even if you want to vary the design slightly for each element.
