How to Customize Wedding Cards
by Lynn Holmgren

Overview
From the invitations to the cake, every bride wants her wedding to be unique. Since the invitation acts as the introduction to the wedding, be sure it reflects your unique style and personality. Customizing your wedding invitations means that you choose everything, including the paper style, font, shape, graphic design, theme and colors.
-
Preparation
-
Outline all of the information that will need to be included on your invitation.
-
Write down notes about your wedding's setting, theme, and colors, and you and your fiance's personalities and mutual interests.
-
Browse invitation collections online to gather ideas. Pick and pull ideas from multiple sources, making sure to keep notes.
Customizing the Cards
-
Decide which customizing options you would like (paper style, font, shape, graphic design). Add ribbons, pressed flowers, wax seals, crystals or charms. Add a photo of you and your fiance for the ultimate custom card.
-
Inquire about costs and turnaround time so you can stick to a budget and create a production timeline.
-
Get your design approved by those closest to you (fiance, bridesmaids, mother).
