There are different types of wedding invitation stationery to check out before settling on specification wedding invitation stationery for your wedding invitations.
First there is the wedding invitation stationery itself, which is a solid, paper stock that is available in a huge assortment of colors. Choose any color and pick your style - normal, bright, subdued, dark, pastel. You can have textured effects, rubbed effects, shiny effects, metallic effects, glitter effects and more. As you can see, there is definitely a lot to choose from when it comes to picking out wedding invitation stationery. And that's just the card stock!
Next comes the overlay, which is a semi transparent piece of parchment that lays over the wedding invitation stationery cardstock. It can be of many colors and hues, but is almost always semi transparent to fully transparent. On it will be a marbled effect for the color, and a photo or a sketch, and fancy writing of sorts.
Finally there are the embellishments, which are simple decorations, foils, seals and charms to brighten up and add some class to the otherwise plain wedding invitation stationery.
There are also two envelopes to pick out - one to put the invitation in to keep it protected from handling, and the larger, outer envelope which the other envelope and wedding invitation stationery are placed into. This enveloped is addressed, stamped and mailed to the recipient.
Where you buy wedding invitation stationery is up to you. You can pick out wedding invitation stationery in a store - either picking piece by piece to match up and put together on your own, or by using a DIY kit that gives examples and instructions on how to create the wedding invitation stationery.
