When it comes to that special day, having a theme to base your
wedding off of makes planning a lot easier. In today's hectic,
fast-paced world, hearkening back to a simpler, slower time is certainly
a popular theme. The results of taking everyone back to a time where
people embraced the moments will make your wedding truly remarkable. And
the best way to start the whole thing off is by getting DIY wedding
ideas for vintage wedding invitations.
While there are a lot of
details to be included in a vintage style wedding, especially if you're
using horse and buggy type transportation, the effort and time it takes
to prepare all the details will definitely be cherished by everyone.
While the effect will be stunning, there will be some of the attire that
may be cumbersome, especially the hoop skirts and bustiers the ladies
may wear.
Creating vintage wedding invitations with the correct
stationery designs will certainly start things off properly. You can
also get invitations that have vintage coloring along with edges that
have been worn to give it an even more authentic look. Next, ensure
you're selecting a type style, or font, that brings one to mind of a
bygone era. There are a lot of fonts for that and depending on the
specific era you've chosen, whether it be a Victorian type wedding or
from the Old West, having the right font will definitely bring out the
attitude you want.
No matter the era, make sure you use the
correct spelling and phrasing. Victorian England does use different
spelling than the Roaring Twenties, so even though there are conventions
on how to properly address and fill out a wedding invitation, using
invitations from a different era can make major differences. It's not
only the attire that matter's when keeping your theme going, but the
small details as well.
All in all, having a themed wedding is a
great way for everyone to have a great time and to remember the wedding.
While the bride and groom will always remember the wedding, making it
stand out in the minds of everyone else, friends, family and even those
who make it happen makes it that much more special. There are tons of
resources available online for party planning ideas to get you pointed
in the right direction, including great
vintage wedding invitation ideas
to choose from. Make your wedding that super-special event for
everyone.
