Do-It-Yourself Daisy Wedding Invitations
Desktop publishing programs and design software make it easier than ever to produce invitations at home. Daisy clip art is available from a wide variety of online sites. Styles of online clip art range from playful, casual designs to those that are more elegant and formal.
Publishing programs often allow brides and grooms to colorize the clip art to match the colors of attendants’ dresses and to perfectly co-ordinate with the invitation’s text as well. Office supply stores carry a wide variety of card stock qualities and colors to choose from as well as greeting card envelopes to enclose the finished invitations. Additionally, laser-directed paper cutters are available, ensuring that the printed invitations look as well-finished as the professionally printed variety.
Professionally Printed Daisy Invitations
For a formal look, there is a wide variety of professionally printed invitations available from online retailers and specialty stores. The addition of a vellum layer and ribbon can give invitations a soft, feminine character, while embossing gives a more traditional appearance. If they intend to include a number of enclosures with their wedding invitations, couples may elect to send professionally printed invitations as they are typically available with coordinating reception inserts, response cards, and maps.
Stationers offer invitations in a variety of colors from traditional whites and golds to the vibrant hues found in Gerbera daisies. For an eye-catching departure from traditional invitations, some professional stationers offer invitations printed on stock that is shaped like a daisy. Enclosures for this variety of invitations may be traditionally shaped or smaller versions of the large invitation daisy.
Photographic Daisy Wedding Invitations
Some couples prefer an invitation with a photo-journalistic feel and may choose invitations with black and white photographs. There are a wide variety of these invitations available that keep with a daisy theme, such as scenes of children or couples in fields of daisies or close -up shots of single blooms.
Aspiring photographers also have the option of taking their own photographs and using design software or a photo publishing website to create printed invitations. This is especially personal if the bride and groom have selected the daisy theme due to their prevalence at a favorite place or in their own gardens.
Dried, Silk, and Origami Daisy Wedding Invitations
Using flowers on wedding invitations is a unique way to capture guests’ attention. Couples can purchase dried daisies and include or attach them to invitations. Additionally, they can choose to purchase invitations with the daisies already incorporated in the design from select retailers. A variety of invitations are available with silk daisies affixed to the card stock, giving a beautiful three dimensional look, and for something very out of the ordinary, couples can create or purchase origami daisies to include on invitations.
Personalized Seed Packet Invitations
For a variation on traditional invitations, couples can elect to send personalized daisy seed packets with the wedding details printed on the front or back. Ordinary seed packets can also be included with printed invitations for a special touch.
After selecting the perfect invitation couples can design their daisy wedding flowers, begin to consider a variety of daisy favors, and brainstorm other creative ways to use daisies in their big day.
