Have You Ever Considered a Photo Wedding Invitation?

Every couple will try their best to search for the best and most unique wedding items. This is also true for your wedding invitation. There are plenty of different choices of wedding invitations out there. You can also find a lot of ideas and concepts on the web. Of all these ideas and choices, putting your photos into the wedding invitation can be one of the choices.

How to select the photos?

You cannot have your photo wedding invitation done without the photos. As a result the most difficult part is to find good photos for your invitation. Basically you have two options for the photos. You can either select existing photos and put them into the wedding invitation or you can take new photos if you can afford the time to do so.

You may think that it will be totally fine to choose existing photos for your photo wedding invitation. The key for this choice is the communication between you and your husband-to-be. You have to bear in mind that it is the wedding of both of you. You should never select the photos without discussing with your partner.

You may try to take new photos if you think selecting existing photos is not your choice. In fact it should be worth the money and time to do so since wedding is a once-in-a-life event. Because the photos will set the tone of both your wedding and wedding invitation card, you should plan your photos with the greatest care. If you are going to hold a beach wedding, it will be perfect if you can take a photo on a beach with your swimsuits on. On the contrary, if you are going to hold a more formal and traditional wedding, you may opt to take a formal portrait in a photo studio.

Indeed selecting existing photos and taking new ones are equally good choices. What you have to bear in mind is that the best photos do not necessarily mean the most beautiful photos. The best photos should be the most appropriate ones. They should be able to let your guests know about the tone of your wedding.

How many photos should be put in the invitation?

You may be a bit hesitate when you think of the number of photos you should put into the wedding invitation. In fact you can virtually put as many photos into the wedding invitation card as you want. However, you need to keep in mind that you need to put the information of your wedding on the card besides the photos. You should get a balance between the space occupied by the photos and the space for putting the information.

How to design the invitation?

The photos are only the ingredients of the wedding invitation. You will need to compose and design the invitation once you select the photos. You can hire a wedding invitation designer to design the invitation for you. You should well advise your designer the tone and theme of your wedding so that he or she can design it to meet your requirements.
