Handmade Wedding Invitations

"Classic style with a bespoke design"

These handmade wedding invitations are a classic design in black and white. They're also easy to recreate by you. All you do is simply print them out and assemble them yourself.

Handmade wedding invitations

The damask design has been handcrafted and is exclusive to Wedding Invitation Ideas.

The layout is clean and open with emphasis given to the bride and groom’s names. The invite is finished off with a pretty white vellum wrap and secured with a black organza ribbon - this gives the look of handmade wedding invitations.

What you'll need:

  • White card cut to the size of your chosen template
  • White vellum or parchment paper - cut to size to allow a 4cm overlap
  • 45cm black organza ribbon (30mm wide)
  • Colour printer
  • Handmade wedding invitation
  • Glue to secure ribbon

This invitation is made up of one page with the vellum wrap and has been designed for a tall card. The template comes in two sizes, 3" x 8" and 8cm x 19.8cm. Just choose your size below.

I’d recommend printing out on ‘smooth’ white card as this will give the best finish. You can either buy sheet card and get it cut to size or buy ‘tall’ card blanks and cut them in half.

With this invite, you literally amend the details and print it out. Finish it off by cutting the vellum to size and adding your ribbon. You’ll need to tie this in a bow.

Tips and advice

The font used on these invitations is Georgia and should be on your computer already.

These wedding invitations have been created in Microsoft Word 97-2003, so you’ll need this to read and amend the invite.

With these handmade wedding invitations, there’s no need for a separate insert. All the information about the wedding is printed directly on to the card. You may want to put additional information (i.e. about the venue, parking, accommodation, etc) in the envelope with the invite.

  1. To download your invitation, choose the size, then simply download and save it to your desktop
  2. Amend the wording to match your wedding details
  3. Cut your card to the size of your chosen template
  4. Do a couple of trial runs on the draft setting to make sure that it looks ok
  5. Print out the invites at the ‘high’ setting and remove each one from the printer to dry and prevent smudging
  6. Cut the vellum or parchment paper to size. Then take each invite and fold the vellum paper around the card. Try not to allow any additional space between the folds and the invite – this will help to ensure your invite stays secure. Allow approximately 4cm to overlap
  7. Cut the ribbon to length and tie a bow around the centre of the vellum and invite
  8. Secure the ribbon in place with a little dab of glue. I used a roller glue as it’s clean and looks tidy. You only need a little bit and it’s best to put this on the underside of the invitation so it can’t be seen
