If your wedding is approaching and you want to do your wedding invitations here is a good place to start.
How to make your own wedding invitations step by step.
You will need your list. Make a list of your family and friends. You can usually get a list of your mothers. They will probably ensure that the important people in the family will be on it. If you choose to respond to your envelopes that you can put this in a database format. You can also use an electronic address book. Get as detailed as you can. How far you go in the family. This will give you an idea of how many invitations you need.
Get your wording in place. You may want to learn some etiquette wedding invitation appropriate. This will help you word the invitation to prevent many hurt feelings as you can.
Learn the basics of word processing program well. I use Microsoft Works. I used some very expensive programs, but with some knowledge that you can do many things.
Get your supplies together. This means you need to know what type of invitation you want. You can get two sizes of cards and envelopes to make an invitation with an RSVP and envelope. You can use the standard card stock for your reception card. You have many choices here. You can choose to have a seal and send invitations. This means you will not need envelopes and a sheet of cardstock will make your invitation and RSVP Postcard.
Choose a nice font. Test multiple with your words. When you think that one of the print and make sure you can read it easily. You want to use the same font for all your invitations. You can use two fonts using a standard font for everything but your name. Your names can be in a flowing script. Make sure it matches your theme or mood. Using the police mystique is not good for a formal wedding. Mystic is a sloppy hand written font. Not a good choice for this.
Maybe some clip art wedding, or something to decorate your invitation. This can make it your own style. But having an idea of what you want to do. Add a ribbon, charm, die cut, or something else. You have full control over this. The experience and decide what is best.
Print a set of invitation, RSVP card, RSVP envelope and reception card. Evidence and let someone else proof it. This is essential. You must wait a day and look again before you decide to print them. This allows time to have a clear mind.
Print each group. Print your invitations, RSVP cards 100 100, etc. This will be the fastest way of getting them done.
If you address the envelopes to match your skills you need in a database or address book format. This can make a great impression on your guests. They love seeing their names in a nice font. It makes them feel special.
Make sure you have proper postage and stamps on the RSVP envelope. Keep everything clean.
Your invitations are an important part of your wedding. But you have much to do too much. So if you want to learn how to make your own wedding invitations, do it. You can save lots of money and have more control over them.
