Mr. and Mrs. West's Wedding Invite

We’d like to congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Kanye West!  You can say what you will about the two, but you have to commend them on trying to do the right thing in an industry where people are commended for doing wrong.

In this post, we’d like to take a look at their invite. 

No, they didn’t follow Emily Post wedding wording etiquette to the ‘T’; but when have Mr. and Mrs. West ever done anything traditionally.  One things for sure; they’re definitely on their way to doing things right!  And what about you? Are you ready to order your own wedding invitations? Here’s one of our invites that’s similar to the Wests’.

 
This is from called Serene Love – Imperial Collection in our Jean M Mixation® catalog.  It’s a 6 x 6 card and you can get yours for $174 for just 100!

Though the West's were married at the Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy and your wedding is at the country club; your guest can still experience the regalness of the day with this Opulent Filigree Beauty. This black shimmer invite actually tops the West's design.  They got you on the Forte, but you'll have them on the invite!

One-Stop-Bachelorette-Party-Shop

So now that we’ve narrowed down your color selection; one that represents you and your gorgeous groom, it’s time to seamlessly weave that color into your Bachelorette Party Invites.  Check out this fuchsia stiletto Dancing Girl Bachelorette Party invite.  This last night out invite is just the right invite to let your girlfriends know that red bottom stilettos are a must because there’ll be hours of dancing going on.



But what if you’re catching a late flight to Vegas and you’re approaching the city of lights and want to make sure that everyone in the airport knows that it’s your last fling.  Why not purchase a few of these zebra pint luggage tags to let the attendants and other patrons know there’s wedding royalty in their midst and to handle you bags delicately. 
And who cares that you won’t be staying at the Palms in their $40k per night Sky Villa; shouldn’t the staff at the Mandarin Oriental know that you’re bridal party is one of the loveliest in the nation?  And as such, shouldn’t they dawn one of these Bachelorette buttons?  I mean your matron/maid of honor, four bridesmaid and five friend of brides have to be readily identified in case some wealthy man tries to buy you a bottle of Gout de Diamant Brut Diamond Champagne which retails for 1.2 million in an effort to woo you from your future hubby.


And wouldn’t a little of that bubbly look extra cute in these Bachelorette Shot Glasses?  No, they're not designed by John Calleija and so what if they’re not embellished with 1700 white and pink diamonds and cost $400k; these babies will do just nicely for the occasion.

And since you entered the city as royalty, let’s not forget your Bachelorette Sash.  This ‘white satin Bachelorette sashes with 3" satin band and 5/8" fuchsia grosgrain ribbon on each side and is embroidered in fuchsia’; so girl, it’s time to turn up and get your party on!

Double Duty Bridal Shower Invites

Getting married is quite the endeavor.  With all the planning, it’s certainly good to know that the big day is a time for partying.  There’s the Bridal Shower, Bachelorette Party, Rehearsal Dinner, the actual wedding ceremony, and last but not least, the oh so get-your-party-on Reception.  And of course, each require that you invite both the guests and the actual wedding party to each festive occasion;  which is where we come in.  We’d like to help you coordinate each party with the right invite!
 
In our last post, we discovered that when selecting the color of all your invites, you should select colors that represent you; the beautiful bride and your gorgeous groom.  The color should be a composite of who you are as a couple.  But with that in mind, that color should be the thread throughout all your wedding invites; including the Save-the-Dates, Bridal Shower, Bachelorette Party, Rehearsal Dinner, the actual Wedding Ceremony and of course, the Wedding Reception.
No matter your color selection, you can’t go wrong with this bright invite.  This Shower Me With Love Bridal Shower invitation is perfect for a Spring Wedding!  Especially since we’re in the rainy season.

But take a look at this Dressy Floral beauty!  If you’re having a Tea Themed Bridal Shower, wouldn’t this make a great invite?  And I might add, that if you were to tell your guests to bring their invites to the shower and the invites could do double duty as a coaster. Oh, I’m kidding! Or am I? LOL!

Color Coordinating Your Save-The-Dates

Oftentimes, many brides get stumped when selecting their wedding invitations because they don’t have a clue as to where to start.  Well, one of the best ways to get over that hurdle is to think about color; the color of your dress, décor – the whole 9.  You want to incorporate those colors into your wedding invites to give your guests a pre-wedding feel. 

When selecting the color, you should select colors that represent you, the bride and your gorgeous groom.  The color should be a composite of who you are as a couple.   Think of it as the first merging, the first creation of you two, the first thing you create together (unless you already have kids!) Say for instance, you like pink and he likes brown. You can’t stand the colors together but in an effort to practice compromise before the marriage; you may want to consider a pink and brown wedding invite. Here's a few pink and brown Save-The-Date ideas to get you started;  
 
Or maybe your future hubby is a denim guy; t-shirts and jeans and you’re a high-end chic on a banana budget.  Well, since he likes jeans, you can never go wrong with denim and though your quirky yellow often leaves him speechless, here’s a few ideas;
 
But see here’s the thing.  You want to use the same color swatch throughout the entire wedding process.  That means your Save the Dates, Bridal Shower, Bachelorette Party, Rehearsal Dinner, the actual wedding ceremony, and the Wedding Reception.  If you need help selecting your wedding invite color swatch or to schedule your Private Wedding Invitation Consultation, give our Invitation Consultants a call at (214)381-6367 or visit us at InvitationWarehouse.com! Appointments are booking fast, so call right now to take advantage of our 30% discount on selected wedding invitations.
