Your wedding invitation sets the tone of your entire day by telling
your guests what kind of celebration they are attending, formal, casual,
destination or something else. When you are investing this much time,
energy and money into an event, isn't it vital that you begin it right?
Start
by looking at invitations as early as you can, even two to three months
before you are mailing them. There are many choices that you have so
finding something that really suites you as a couple can be time
consuming. The internet will have the widest variety of choice available
but, because computers vary so much, you will not be able to get the
full feel of an invitation from the picture. Thus, ordering samples is
crucial to making sure that the picture you see on the screen matches
the invitation you hold in your hand and gives you exactly what you are
looking for. Here are some suggestions to make this process easier:
1. Make a Wedding Event and Stationary List:
The Wedding Invite is the most important one you will decide on but
there are other events that will require stationary. The following are
common ones you may need: a "Save the Date" card. Wedding Programs,
place card settings if you are having a formal event, rehearsal dinner
invites, also invitations for different kinds of parties ie, "showers",
and don't forget "Thank You" cards. Making a list of all your needs and
then ordering them together will save you considerable time down the
road.
2. Best Search Engine Terms to Use: To
begin your search, type one of these terms into Google or yahoo or the
search engine of your choice: "wedding invitations", "printable wedding
invitations", "wedding invitation samples", "unique wedding
invitations", "wedding invitation kits". Look over all the offerings to
get an idea of the style, design, color, and price you want. Make sure
to keep a list of the websites that have your favorites on them, you may
think you will remember but it is easy to forget or confuse one site
with another and then have to backtrack using up valuable time.
3. Order A Variety of Samples:
If you start early enough you can order a variety of different types of
samples to help you make your decision. Try ordering different styles
like pocket folders or layered kits in addition to the tried and true
single panel ones. Also compare prices for printed and printable
invitations. You may find that the simple act of printing your own
wedding invites considerably cuts the cost for you.
4. Allow Enough Time:
When making your decisions, always check with the website to make sure
you have allowed enough time for the invitations to arrive when they are
needed. Remember that when ordering online you have to understand the
shipping and processing time for each website as they will be different.
In order to avoid disappointment, make sure to read the shipping
section before you order and call them directly if you have concerns or
questions.
