Modern Wedding Invitations Fun

Whether you are planning to have a seashore themed wedding or are just getting married in the summertime, beach style wedding invitations can present your event with a cool, relaxing vibe.

If you are getting married in the summer or are having an island destination wedding, have you considered sending beach wedding invitations to emphasize your tropical ambience? Now before you go all crazy with visions of gaudy palm trees and coconuts or colorful Bob Marley portraits plastered all over your invitations, hear me out. You don’t have to send invitations that display an artistic tribute to Jimmy Buffet (unless you or your spouse are a die-hard fan and have your heart set on this), but choosing an invitation with sweet nautical elements or images that have subtle hints of the beach on it can really help amp up your wedding day theme.

Still, if you want an invite that is overtly beach themed, you can find designs with palm trees, flip-flops, and sunscreen that do not look like silly pool party invitations. The Trendy Tropical design is a soft, picturesque painting of a tropical beach– complete with palm trees – and is very pretty without looking too busy. The Tropical Paradise design is an actual photo of beautifully clear tropical water with a lush green landscape in the background. It is a simple yet undeniably beach themed wedding invite with loads of style.

Here is the Summer Love design which is a sweet picture of a heart drawn into the sand with a designated place for your customizable text underneath. It’s minimalistic and very graceful looking—perfect for a bride who wants a beach style invite without all of the fuss. Many of these designs can be ordered with matching reception and response cards, and even with matching stamps for that extra special touch. Remember you can always choose simple baby blue invites or invites with a combination of “beachy” colors, such as shades of cool blues, pinks, and tans to accentuate your wedding’s color scheme. Pick something that suits your décor, theme, or personal style, and you can’t go wrong.

Having a hard time choosing a design scheme for your summer wedding invitations? Here are a few things that you should consider.

Many people know that how difficult it is to pick out summer wedding invitations, or any wedding invitations for that matter. The invitations can often seem like a small detail in the theme of your entire wedding, but they really aren’t. In fact, they’re one of the most important details.

The first time your guests will hear about your wedding is when reading the invitation. Your wedding invitations are the first impression that you make on your friends and family members, so you want your invites to really wow the crowd. With a summer wedding, it is important to send out your wedding invitations far in advance, so you better get moving on finding some summer wedding invitation design ideas right away.

Consider Save the Dates

Summer is a busy time for almost everyone, so you should also look into coordinating save the date cards months before you send the invitations. This ensures that your guests can plan their schedule with your wedding in mind.

Your Invitations Should Reflect the Style of Your Wedding

If your wedding is going to be fun, casual, and full of sand and sun, then your invitation designs should be tropical and whimsical as well. Or, if you are having a traditional wedding, opt for classic invitation designs with a nautical touch.

Color Choices

Popular colors for the summer months are bright, energetic, and airy. Feel free to use bright colors such as vivid blues, greens, or hot pinks, and pretty pastels as well. Pastels are especially nice if you want shabby chic or vintage summer wedding invites.

Choose a Design that Matches Your Wedding Location

The summertime is the most popular time of the year for beach weddings and destination weddings. If you are having a special destination wedding, use that to your advantage and make it the design theme for your wedding invitations. Use pictures of a beach scene or whatever your destination location is, or even your favorite marine animals for the cover or response cards.

Keep these things in mind and you’ll find a summer wedding invitation design that is everything you hoped for.
