Summer weddings are great for a whole host of reasons, including the lovely weather that brings with it the chance to have a summer wedding and not be sweltering from either too much sun or coming back from the beach and sweating. But don’t let the great weather distract you from creating some spectacular wedding invitations. The best part is, if you want your invitations to stand out from the crowd but keep them fun and fresh, then these top five ideas are going to be perfect for you.
1) Give a Touch of Warmth and Greenery
Warmth and greenery are the best invitation designs for a summer wedding. This is something that you need to consider when planning your summer weddings. You can choose to include actual green leaves on your wedding invites, or incorporate other elements like flowers and branches to create a warm, earthy feel that’s perfect for summer weddings. Since summers are all about greenery, reflection of this in your wedding invite will definitely set them apart!
2) Colorful Florals
The bright, colorful design of a floral wedding invitation will fit in perfectly with a summer wedding. Imagine tropical flowers like orchids, hibiscus, and heliconia arranged in sweet vases atop a beach backdrop. If your vision is more whimsical than traditional, then these invitations are perfect for you! And no worries if your destination wedding is far from a tropical paradise—no matter where you tie-the-knot, custom invites like these can still get you in that romantic mood.
3) Opt for Pastel Colors
There’s a reason why you always see pastel colors associated with weddings in spring and summer: they are such light, fresh, and beautiful colors! Pastels can be used in all sorts of aspects to add elegance to your wedding, especially when it comes to invitations. They can help give your guests a feeling of warmth and light that fits perfectly with an outdoor wedding. Do not use darker hues as it will be more suitable for winter weddings.
4) Simple yet Classic Theme
Simple and classic; these two words should perfectly describe your wedding invitation designs. Make it fresh, innovative and stylish, something which is in the trend! Classic wedding invitations are a great way to keep things easy, but elegant. A timeless design will never go out of style and you’ll be able to proudly display your wedding invitations at your reception as well. If you don’t want to spend much money on cards, you can use some luster dust on plain white envelopes and it will create an elegant look that is similar to other embellished designs.
5) Cozy & Soft
Cozy, soft invitations in warm, cozy colors provide a homey invitation that emphasizes your wedding is taking place at home. This invitation may be perfect if you want to stay on a budget by having your friends and family use their own resources to respond. The gentle, inviting look of coziness also conveys a sense of calmness, which is an ideal tone for summer. This look can easily transition from rustic to modern with a simple color or font change.
