What Are The Latest Wedding Invitation Trends For 2022
A wedding invitation says a lot about the couple’s taste, personality, and budget, so it’s worth taking the time to choose one that will get your guests excited about celebrating your big day. And if you’re planning to say I do in 2022, then you’ll definitely want to check out the latest wedding invitation trends that are likely to catch on in the next year or two.
Highly Visual Save-the-Dates
More and more, couples are looking for ways to make their wedding save-the-dates stand out. And what better way to do that than with a highly visual design? Save-the-dates are the perfect opportunity to show off your personality as a couple and get your guests excited about your big day. Some popular designs include personal photos or hand-drawn illustrations.
You can even use an artistic font like cursive writing to give it a more romantic feel. Another idea is to create an interactive element by asking people RSVP right on the card! There’s nothing like being able to customize every little detail of your special day.
With so many options available in terms of fonts, colors, shapes, and sizes, you’ll be sure to find one that perfectly fits your style. One thing to keep in mind when designing your cards is making them look clean and professional.
That way they won’t clash with other elements on your invites such as the wording, color scheme, or illustration style. If you’re not great at designing graphics yourself, don’t worry – there are tons of affordable graphic designers who specialize in creating wedding invitation cards just for weddings.
They will take care of everything from layout to color schemes to lettering styles so all you have to do is provide them with some inspiration and they’ll come up with something truly original.
Vintage Influences
Vintage-inspired wedding invitations are becoming increasingly popular, as couples look to the past for inspiration. Classic fonts, simple designs, and muted colors are all hallmarks of vintage wedding invitations.
Vintage wedding invitations have a classic, old-world feel that many couples love. You can use these designs to accent your wedding thank you cards or even create a card with a vintage theme. Choose colors and fonts that feel reminiscent of a bygone era, and don’t be afraid to go bold—after all, vintage means unique.
Once you’ve selected your design, it’s time to choose what size you want it in. Traditional sizing will depend on whether or not you’re having an intimate ceremony or an extravagant affair; if there’s no need for your guests to RSVP beforehand, then 6×6 is perfect.
On the other hand, if you need an RSVP envelope included with each invite and will have more than 200 guests at your ceremony, opt for 8×8. When sending out the invites, include postcards or small cards that state when and where the event will take place. These little reminders help ensure people show up without any confusion about where they’re going.
Reception-Only Invitations
You’re cordially invited to celebrate the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Smith at their reception following the ceremony. Reception-only invitations are becoming more popular as couples opt for smaller, more intimate weddings.
This type of invitation is perfect for couples who are having a destination wedding or eloping and then throwing a big party back home for all their friends and family. It’s also ideal for those couples that are trying to keep costs down.
By opting for this type of invitation, you’ll need to include some form of written notification about the date and time of your ceremony (if it will be before or after your reception). If it’s before your reception, you can just put the evening hours on your invite.
If it’s after your reception but before midnight, say starting at 10 pm. And if it will be after midnight? Just let guests know they’ll have to RSVP with their preferred day and time slot in order to attend. If it’s after your reception but before midnight, say starting at 10 pm.
Minimalist Suites
A big trend we’re seeing for wedding invitations is a move towards more minimalist suites. This means less fussy details and a focus on clean lines and simple fonts. We love this trend because it results in beautiful, modern invitations that are easy to read and elegant.
On the other hand, if you have been dreaming of an invitation suite with lots of ornate embellishments or special touches (like pearls), don’t worry. You can still get the invitation suite you want by going to a custom design company.
Just be aware that this will cost you much more than buying something off the rack at your local stationery store. That being said, as long as you take the time to find a reputable vendor who specializes in unique designs and is willing to spend more money upfront, then you’ll save money in the long run by avoiding expensive reprint fees.
So don’t be afraid to go custom; just make sure you know what you’re getting into beforehand. If you’re not sure where to start, one good option is hiring a professional event planner. They should be able to help guide you through the entire process and find vendors who offer a range of styles so that you don’t feel boxed in by one particular look.
