Design the perfect wedding invitation!

Your wedding invitation is the first peek your guests get on your special day, so it’s important that it makes the right first impression. Here are some tips on how to create the perfect wedding invitation.

Dimensions and paper type

The standard size for a wedding invitation is 13×19 cm. However, there is no “rule” that prevents you from choosing a different size if you wish. For example, a square invitation can give a modern and stylish look, while a longer or narrower shape can create a more elegant and formal feel.

When it comes to paper type, weight and quality, the options are endless. At Type Center we have 50 years of experience that allow us to offer you a wide variety of paper or even… acrylic, for “out of the box” invitations that will surely impress!

Theme and Design

Whether you are having a beach wedding or in a luxurious resort, the invitation should “set the tone”. Make sur you choose the right patterns and the right colors that reflect the style of your wedding.

Fonts

The fonts you choose can have a big impact on the overall look and feel of the invitation. For a traditional and formal wedding, use a classic serif font such as Times New Roman or Garamond. For a more modern and relaxed wedding, consider a Sans-Serif font such as Helvetica or Futura.

To add a personal touch, consider using a calligraphic font for your names. Just make sure the font is easy to read and not over-complicated.

Important information to include

As for what should be written in an invitation, that is your personal choice. However, in case the church or the venue is located somewhere remote, you should include a map either in physical form, or digitally with a qr code. It is also important to give some tips for the ladies, especially about the weather (in case it gets chilly during night hour).

In conclusion, writing the perfect wedding invitation requires attention to detail and a good sense of design. At Type Center, invitations hold a special place in our hearts.
