Your wedding day is the most special day of your life. You want it to be remembered by all. Amidst the ongoing preparations you do not give much priority to something small like an invitation cover.
But, you must realize that your invitation makes the first impression about your wedding, on the invitees. You could make a difference by going for an innovative cover for your invitations. Here are a few tips you can look into before giving out your invitations with uninteresting covers.
It is easy to design the cover if yours is a theme wedding. You need a cover which goes with your selected theme and that's it. For example, if your chosen color theme is lilac, you can get a darker tone of the same done with some shimmer on the top. Or, if you have a renaissance theme wedding, you can get renaissance art printed or go for a renaissance musical cover. People receiving the invitation will get excited and will come prepared for the wedding.
If you want something classy, you can use materials like tissue, ribbons, stones, pearls, hand made flowers etc to decorate your cover. You can also put a personal message from your side on the cover. This will make your guests feel special. Also, putting up a picture of you and your mate on the cover will add a personal touch to the invitation cover.
Then there are some unconventional covers also. How about a message in a bottle? Interesting that is! Go for any bottle that appeals to you. If you want, you can do some improvisation on this bottle. Put a ribbon on top or get it painted. Similarly, you can use a tin, a silk box or a metallic case if you are willing to spend more. Another different idea is to wrap your invitation in a satin or a silk cloth. Tie it up with colorful matching ribbons.
If you want to keep your invitation simple, you could go for plain covers. Covers made of hand made paper are a good option in that case. They are simple yet creative. Try recycled paper if you are an eco friendly person. These covers will cost you less too.
These are a few ideas how you can add to the charm of your special day by going in for a right invitation cover. Invitation covers are the best way to tell your guests what is in store for them. Also, as mentioned earlier, they create the first impression about your wedding. Therefore, do not take a chance!
