The first thing you should do when you have set a date for your wedding and decided upon a venue is to send out your invitations.
If you are on a budget like most people are nowadays, one way of saving money is to make them and write them yourself.
This can be a headache for some people but if you get free samples of wedding invitations you can easily write your own using the guidelines that are given.
1.
With the samples that you can get for free online, there will be many different styles and ways of writing the invites with examples from the bride's parents or from the couple.
Decide first who the invitations should be from.
2.
The next thing you should do is to put all the relevant details in like where the wedding is, what time, the day and RSVP details.
If you want it to be unique you can include this into a story like the following: "Please join us on the (date) as we celebrate our wedding at (venue) at (time).
3.
You can also use the samples that you get and mix some of the elements to make your own special invitations.
You don't have to use what is given to you exactly - this is more of a guide to make sure you don't leave something out.
4.
When you sit down to write your wedding invitations make sure that what you want to say is done properly and as simply as possible.
Let a professional or someone gifted with words look over what you have written to make sure it sounds professional and correct.
You don't want to find spelling mistakes and incorrect grammar once they are all printed out.
5.
Lastly, you can use the free samples of wedding invitations to help you choose the length of wording and the font.
These samples will be written in the correct colors and done in the best fonts.
You can change them, but you should try and keep them as similar as possible or at least keep the layout the same.
