Elegant Wedding Invitations In Unique Pocket Styles Are Available Online

Tuesday, September 21st, 2010

Today’s brides are looking for ways in which to make their wedding unique and a new line of pocket style elegant wedding invitations will set the tone for that distinctive wedding.  With many designs from which to choose, pocket style designs are made to hold your invitation in creative ways; in stylish jackets or printed sleeves.

In a variety of printed designs or solid colors, the printed invitation card is held by a separate pocket or folded jacket for a unique presentation that takes the traditional wedding invitation one step further.  The printed invitation still includes all the necessary information regarding the ceremony or event, printed on nice card stock, but now it comes held by a separate piece of solid, bold colored paper or pastel printed translucent vellum for an extra special presentation that makes this elegant wedding invitation one that will stand out from the rest.  Some of these pocket type invitations even come with a satin bow to hold all the pieces together.  These unique designs still come in envelopes and are almost like gifts that the lucky wedding guest unwraps.

Wedding invitations used to be hand delivered, which is why the tradition of having an inner and an outer envelope remains today.  A footman would be sent to hand deliver an invitation to the address on the outside of the envelope.  Upon arrival and after a dusty ride on horseback, the footman would take the invitation out of the now dirty outer envelope before presenting it to the doorman.  The doorman would take the invitation in the addressed inner envelope, usually on a silver platter, to the recipient.  Although few invitations are hand delivered today, the practice of using an inner and an outer envelope remains in effect. 

Pocket wedding invitations carry all of your wedding information including your response cards and envelopes, reception cards, maps and special instructions in an attractive folder that then goes in the colorful outer envelope.  Less time spent addressing an extra envelope and more fun to put together and send.

Now, with pocket style unique wedding invitations being introduced online, brides can not only select the perfect wedding invitation without ever leaving home, but they can also select innovative designs that will set the tone for their unique wedding in high style.  Rather than flipping through large binders holding samples of wedding invitations, today’s bride can surf the net and quickly review hundreds of designs all categorized by theme, color or paper type.  They can type in their information and actually see what the invitation will look like instantly.  They can shop in their jammies or any time of the day or night.  They can even quickly solicit opinions from others, including the groom!

In a variety of sizes, pocket invitations and pocket wedding announcements can be tall and skinny, square or rectangular.  From pastel floral sleeves to bold colors, your invitation will stand out from all others.  Bright and eye-catching, the color will set the tone for your wedding and can be carried through from the flowers to the table decorations.

Unique pocket style designs offer the ultimate in elegant wedding invitations and selecting and ordering them online now gives the busy bride more time to work on other wedding related tasks.  Unique and affordable, pocket style wedding invitations are a great choice for any upcoming wedding.

Choosing the Right Wedding Invitation

Monday, September 20th, 2010

One of the largest expenses while getting married is the wedding invitation. You can spend a rather large amount of money on your wedding invitation if you have the funds. Many people view the wedding invitation as a highly important part of the wedding process. They see the wedding invitation as your first chance to show the world who you are as a couple. If you feel this way, you will want to spend a little extra time, money and effort on your wedding invitation. If you view them as simply a means to let everyone know about the wedding, there are many ways you can save money.

You will want to purchase your wedding invitation early. Whether you are having invitations printed professionally or you are going to print your own wedding invitation, you want to send out invitations with enough time for people to plan to make it to your nuptials. One very important thing about your wedding is having the people you care about present. If you don’t send out your wedding invitation with enough time, people might make other plans.

A fancy wedding invitation can be very expensive. Because of this, you should determine your overall wedding budget. Then, you should decide exactly what you want to spend on your wedding invitation. If you are looking to spend a lot of money, you might be able to afford nicer wedding invitation on thicker and more expensive paper. Professional printers will offer a wide range of options that can suit any needs. If you are looking to save money, you can make your own invitations from wedding stationary. You can save a lot of cash by opting to make your own wedding stationary rather than hire out. If you are planning to have a huge wedding, this can be a big undertaking.

If you are making the wedding invitation yourself, you should make sure you allow plenty of time. Addressing hundreds of envelopes is no small project and you will want to make sure that everyone on the list gets an invite. You don’t want to be rushing at the last minute to finish up your wedding invitation. You also want to give people time to RSVP so you can know exactly how many people are planning to show up. Weddings are expensive and it is certainly undesirable to have a lot of people fail to respond. You can make your own wedding invitation by going to a craft store. They will generally have paper with nice designs that you can put in your own printer. You can dress up your wedding invitation by adding ribbons or confetti.

Another way to save money on wedding stationary is to send out e-vites. An e-vite is an online invitation. You can use sources such as email or networking sites such as Facebook or Myspace to get the word out. This is also a great way to differentiate between who is coming to the reception and who is just invited to the ceremony. You can send e-vites to a large group of people for the wedding ceremony and then send out paper invitations to those invited to the reception. This can save a lot of money and cut back on confusion.
