Going the extra mile with Contemporary Wedding Invitations

That day has come for you to decide on when to host your special day and how you are going to announce to your wedding guests. Looking back, you recall the wonderful times you both have shared together and the day where he got down on one knee, and presented you a ring and a happy future together, and you said yes with all the love in the world. Going back to all those beautiful thoughts, you want to make it known to everyone by transcending those thoughts and feelings into your wedding invitations. There is one way of doing so, and that is with contemporary wedding invitations.

One common thing about contemporary wedding invitations is that it follows the classic concept of being a folded card, whether it is a double-fold or a tri-fold, the concept will include paper that is folded to open and present your announcement. Therefore, it is important that the paper you use reflect the idea you have in mind for your contemporary wedding invitations, or even the theme that you have for your whole wedding, be it the decor, the attire of the bridal retinue and especially the wedding stationary.

If you have chosen a theme that speaks volumes about what the both of you like, then it is only just that it is reflected in the first announcement of the wedding, that is the wedding invites. Going along with the theme, if you have chosen a set of colours to blend with the attire, the decorations, and even the flowers, we must find a way of using it throughout the wedding, especially on the wedding invitation. With the right colours and a theme that blends, we are on our way to making beautiful contemporary wedding invitations.

Contemporary Wedding Invitations Ideas

For unique and Contemporary Wedding Invitations look no further than Dreamday Invitations.

It is however, difficult to define a ‘Contemporary wedding invitation’ as it will mean something different to everybody, as one persons individual idea of contemporary may vary tremendously. I would personally identify a contemporary card as one that is ‘modern’ in design, uses the latest colours, and the latest design trends, with motifs and images that in every way reflect the style and vogue of today’s modern bride and groom.

Pictured here are Dreamday Invitations ‘Candy Stripe’, ‘Crest of Love’, and ‘Island Fantasy’.

Choose from bold, bright colours that represent up-to-date trends, to pastels and softer tones to blend perfectly with your wedding theme colours, or feature a beautiful photograph of your favourite flower, a serene and inviting beach scene, or a delicate butterfly.

With contemporary wedding invitations your choice of fonts can extends from the traditional Edwardian and older style scripty fonts, and enables the use of fonts inspired from handwriting, and plain text fonts like Arial and Copperplate, and moves away from traditional black text and uses text colours to co-ordinate with the invitation theme. Traditional wordings and text layout can be relaxed, giving you flexibility and freedom with your invitation wording, allowing you to be more casual and creative with your verses and wording style.

The term ‘contemporary’ really means you can be as creative as you like. Pretty much ‘Anything goes’ when it comes to design, colours and invitation styles, delivering a wedding invitation type that lets you relinquish the traditional wedding styles of yesteryear, and provides a wider range from which to choose invitations in your own colours, and add personal touches for the perfect wedding invitation unique to you.
