Ideas For Your Beach Wedding Invitation

A beach wedding is considered more stylish than a formal one.
In fact it is perfect for couples who believe that the big day
should be full of fun. To this end a beach wedding is less
formal. In this case you invitation can also be a less formal
one.

When we talk about the beach and sea, the first thing that may
come to your mind is most probably a seashell. You can put
patterns or graphics of seashells on the invitation card. You
may also find photos of seashells and put them on the
invitation.

If you do not satisfy with the idea of putting images of the
seashells on the card, you can go one step further. You can
consider using a real seashell as an element of the wedding
card. You can put it in the invitation envelop. If you are using
a glass bottle as a container for your invitation, you can even
put a few small seashells into it.

Besides seashell, sand can also represent the idea of a beach.
The ideal case is that you can take the sand from the beach you
are going to have your wedding. You can stick a thin layer of
sand on the card. From this your guests will certainly have a
clue about your wedding once they see the wedding card.

Again, if you are going to use a glass bottle, you can put the
sand into the bottle. In fact a glass bottle is an interesting
idea since it will be like a sculpture. However, you need to
bear in mind that a glass bottle can be quite heavy. As a result
the postage will be higher than you originally expect. Besides,
you should also take extra care about the package when you mail
it out since a glass bottle can be easily broken if it is not
packed with care.

If you would like to going back to the idea of a printed card,
you can also consider the following idea. You can draw some
cartoon drawings of a beach. You can even draw a portrait of
you, with the wedding dresses on, to indicate that it is your
wedding on a beach. The style of the drawing can be a funny one.
As discussed before, a beach wedding is full of fun. Your
invitation should also be full of fun.

Nowadays some couples will choose to put their photos into the
wedding invitation. This idea can be perfect for your beach
theme invitation. However, you may need to spend some time for
the photos. You do not just choose a photo at home to put on the
wedding card. Instead you will go to the beach you are going to
have your wedding and take a photo there. You do not need to
hire a photographer to take photos for you. A causal photo can
be perfect. The key is to express the love of you and your
spouse. An invitation card like this can be an extremely
romantic one.
