Wedding Invitations for Traditional Ceremony

Getting married can be a lot of things. It is about a commitment that you intend to last a lifetime. Sometimes it is a solemn bond, not just between two people, but between them and their religious beliefs. Anyhow, it is the most common public acknowledgment of love that exists in our society. Introducing someone to your husband carries a lot more weight than just introducing them to your boyfriend.



In many ways, marriage is about publicly sharing your love with the people who are most important to you in your life. It is about inducting your spouse fully into your family, and about you being inducted into his. Something about being surrounded by all of your friends and family just helps to seal the deal officially.



But before any of this occurs, you first have to get all of your loved ones together for your wedding ceremony. If you are having a traditional wedding, then you will most likely want to go the traditional route with sending out invitations. That means no phone calls, no e-mails, and certainly no Facebook invites. For this occasion, you do it the old-fashioned way, by sending an invitation in the mail. These wedding invitations will be perfect for your traditional ceremony.



Elegant Tradition

This option is a simple and classic wedding invitation that is great if you plan on sending out invitations early in the planning process. Do you want to make sure you get everyone invited before you start making serious wedding decisions? Then this could be the right card for you. If you haven't picked out your wedding colors yet, then you can still order these invitations in simple black and white. The card comes in color options of Antique White or Bright White.



The invitation on this card measures 5-1/2 inches by 7-3/4 inches and does not fold. All of your personalized information will be printed using a raised thermograph process. You can choose your own special fonts and verses, and you can even pick different colors if you do, in fact, have your wedding colors picked out.



There are other gorgeous add-ons you can select to go with this terrific invitation. You can personalize response cards, reception cards, thank you cards, and multi-purpose cards to send out as well.

Burst of Love

Looking for something a little bit more flamboyant to announce your wedding? While some couples are looking for a very traditional invitation to match their traditional wedding, others might want something a little bit more modern.



You can still have a lovely, traditional wedding and add a dash of flair to the occasion. The Burst of Love invitations are great for celebrating a springtime wedding in stylish fashion. The invitations have a lovely design on them that resembles a combination of a blooming flower and a bursting firework.



You can purchase these cards in your choice of 17 different colors. These options include Guava, Canary, Malibu, Key Lime, Iris, Tangerine, Watermelon, and more. No matter which color you pick, the flower-like burst will be cut out in contrasting white.



One of the most satisfying aspects of this invitation is that you can also feel good about sending it. Many brides might want to "go green" on their wedding by foregoing cards altogether. But that isn't necessary with the Burst of Love cards.



This eco-friendly invitation was made using a digital printing process that eliminates much of the waste that accompanies old-fashioned printing methods. For one thing, all of the paper used is made from recycled materials and has been Green Seal Certified. Even the production process is green. All of the recycled paper is made using clean and renewable wind power!

Water's Edge

A traditional wedding ceremony does not always have to take place in a house of worship. It is perfectly natural to take your traditional vows in an untraditional location.



Actually, so many people seem to get married on a tropical beach these days, that it is almost becoming a new tradition in itself. There is nothing quite like being out on the beach at sunset with the sea breeze blowing through your hair and the soft sand between your toes. Add in the love of your life and all your friends and family, and who can blame you for wanting to get married there?



The Water's Edge invitations are great for a waterfront wedding. They have a lovely beach scene printed on the back. These cards are a great value and can coordinate with any color theme.

When picking out your wedding invitations, be careful to take enough time, but not too much. Of course you want to get ones that are "just right," but don't get overwhelmed with all the options. Make a list as you go through different styles and mark your favorites as "possibilities." When you feel like you've seen enough, just pick one of them. The important part isn't the invitations you send, it is the people you send them to.
