Winter Wedding Invitation Inspiration

Knowing your family and friends are excited and anticipate taking part in your winter wedding will build your own excitement, confidence and make your joy even greater as you move closer to your wedding day.

To ensure that the excitement and anticipation of everyone involved carries right through to your wedding day, the invitations your guests receive will have to stand out and be extra ordinary. They will need more intensity, convey more passion, and be able to create a greater romantic atmosphere for your wedding than the average summer-type invitations.

Since it's a winter wedding, you want your invitations to arouse and inspire romantic feelings and thoughts of freshly falling snow, wintery landscapes, Jack Frost, icicles and sleigh bells. Yes, you want your invitations to produce in your guests the type of thoughts and feelings that caused famous painters like Picasso, Van Gogh and da Vinci to create their masterpieces and works of art.

This is the type of effect you want your invitations to have on your guests. Yes, your invitations should leave them enthusiastically counting down the days....

Sounds good, but where do you begin?

Well, first it's important to determine how much time you have. If you need your invitations completed and sent out by a certain date, then keep this date in mind as you move forward. If you're making the invitations yourself, you can be a little more flexible with your schedule. However, should you decide to have your invitations custom made by professional printers, you will need to give them enough time to get them produced, packaged and sent back to you so that you can deliver them.

But why leave such an important task of conveying your heart, mind and soul in the hands of the printers? This is YOUR dream winter wedding! After the wedding is over and all the guests have gone home, what better reminder and testament of the love you two share than knowing that it was YOUR heart, YOUR mind, YOUR creativity and YOUR invitation inspiration that went into creating your winter wedding invitations, and not some impersonal cookie cutter poetry found on many pre-made invitations.

Yes, after it's all said and done, you'll realize that a little piece of who you are has gone into creating your own masterpiece
of love!
