Elegant Wedding Invitation You Can Create Yourself

"The light grey, fine illustration and sheer vellum create an elegant wedding invitation"

This invitation has a very delicate look created by the soft hues of the grey and the block colour illustration. It's finished off with a sheer pearlescent vellum overlay, secured with an organza ribbon.

This elegant wedding invitation is easy to create too. You’ll also save time and money downloading and printing it out yourself.

This particular style is designed to be a one page card with a vellum overlay secured with a colour co-ordinated ribbon. The templates come in two sizes: 8cm x 19.7cm or 3” x 8”.

The inspiration for this elegant wedding invitation came when the blossom on the trees was coming out in spring. The pretty flowers and delicate branches create a really delicate illustration.

For each card, you'll need:

• Card cut to size of the template you choose
• Vellum cut to size of the template
• 25cm ribbon
• Colour printer
• Hole punch

Before you start!

I would strongly recommend doing a trial run to find what card and vellum you prefer. Once you've found a paper and card that you like, buy enough for all your invites. Get the paper and card cut to size by a copy shop - this will give you a professional finish and save you a lot of time.

Layout of card

Invite closed

This invitation uses a special font called Garamond. You should find this on your home computer.

Each printable invitation comes in a Microsoft Word document. You'll need to amend the wording to reflect your own wedding and then print them out on your chosen, pre-cut paper.

Tips:

• Do a trial run to find the card and vellum paper you like
• Try buying an economy or bumper pack of card blanks and envelopes. You can then cut these in half to make the one page card!
• Get the card cut to size by a professional
• Print out each page separately
• Print out the invite section using the high quality setting on your printer
• Print out the vellum section using the draft or fast setting on your printer
