Wedding Stationery As An Alternative For Photo Wedding Invitations

By Tracy Edgar


Weddings are an auspicious occasion where friends and relatives get together to bless the couple in the journey of their new lives as man and wife. We all know the wedding arrangements need to be made well in advance so as not to leave out the important details. Once the theme and the location for the wedding is selected, you might need to think about choosing the different stationeries for your photo wedding invitations.

The wedding invitations can be designed or purchased depending on the theme of your wedding. Many couples prefer to insert special cards such as RSVP, accommodation and many others for the convenience of their guests. Picture wedding invitations can consist of photos of you and your spouse posing in natural environments.

Now you cannot have the wedding invitations with photos sent within days of your wedding. Guests need to save their dates so that they are available to attend your wedding. In such cases, you can have save the cards sent prior to the invitations letting them know when your wedding will be held. If you are purchasing pocket style invites, then you can have them sent along with the main invitations.

Once the guests receive your picture wedding invitations, and then they will send you the acceptance cards so that you are notified well in advance of their arrival on your big day. Acceptance cards make it easier for you to get the exact head count for the wedding preparations. Acceptance cards can be designed or purchased according to the theme of your wedding.

In order to make your photo wedding invitations more unique and stylish for the guests, you can even add different borders or accessories to them. Colorful ribbons, laces can be punched into the invitations, or you can even go in for paper flowers or beads. In case of beach weddings, you can attach seashells on the sides of the invitations to create the desired effect.

Online stores are a boon for working couples who do not have the time to design their wedding invitations with photos. All they have to do is select the theme, color or layout for their invitations and personalize them with beautiful photos of their choice. You can even take the time to visit a professional photographer and have him click a portrait of you and your spouse.

Another important element that should be included along with your wedding preparations is the thank you cards. These cards are sent to the guests 2-3 weeks after the wedding in order to show your gratitude towards the guests. Remember to purchase extra cards in case you make mistakes or receive additional gifts from them.

Your thank you guests can be ordered with your photo wedding invitations in order to match the theme of your wedding. Pictures of your honeymoon can be added to the thank you cards and you can even personalize them with wordings such as "Thank You For Attending Our Wedding".
