To make your wedding invitations look a lot more expensive than they are simply turn your chosen photo into a black and white copy as black and white photos are instantly a lot more sophisticated and classy than regular photos.
Black and gold:
Whether you like the idea of a glamorous vintage inspired Great Gatsby styled wedding or you plan to get married on New Year’s eve, you may want to opt for basic black wedding invitations that boast striking gold text as your wedding card design. If you opt for this particular option you won’t have to worry about including any photos, images or embellishments as gold text on a simple black background is effortlessly chic. While you can choose to get a professional company to print black and gold invitations for you, if you have tidy handwriting you may want to use a fine tip gold calligraphy pen in order to hand draw text onto black cardboard, in order to make your own DIY invitations.
Seasonal inspired wedding invitations:
You may want to use the season that your wedding will take place in as inspiration for your wedding cards. For example, if your big day is set to take place in spring you may want to use sunflowers as motifs for your cards. While if you plan to celebrate your special day during winter, you may want to have snowflakes laser cut into your invitations.
