Wedding Breeze

Choosing your wedding invitation design is just the beginning. Important details for your imprinting, such as typestyle and ink color, also need to be selected.  You probably won’t give much thought to these selections until you actually go through the process of designing and ordering your invitations but you want to be prepared.

Here are a number of particulars to keep in mind when choosing your lettering style…

• More and more modern wedding invitations are incorporating two lettering styles usually with the bride and groom’s names appearing in a distinguished font. You will be able to see in the product description how many lettering styles can be chosen for each style when shopping for your invites.
• The more decorative the lettering style the more difficult it could be for your guests to read so study the letters (both upper and lower case) carefully for readability.
• A few typestyles are much lighter than others when printed and others may show up as being bolder. 
• Some font styles are naturally larger in their appearance.
• Certain typestyle choices are automatically in small caps meaning all letters appear as uppercase with normal capital letters appearing slightly larger.

As far as ink colors, again some modern wedding invitations are using two contrasting colors to single out certain details such as the couple’s names.  If your invites have a colored background or are printed on a colored paper, remember to choose an ink color that will stand out against that particular color for easy reading.

When it comes to wedding invitation printing by a professional printer, you will be presented with all the different lettering styles and ink colors that are available for your chosen design.  To help in making your selections, it is recommended that you take notice of which choices are used on the sample invitation to see if you like how they look.  The product information area for each invitation will list those specifics.
