Featured Wedding Invitation: Blue Blooms

1. Slow Down and Get It Right

Don’t rush through making your invites. We know you’re excited to see the final product, but take your time.

Mess-ups can happen when you speed through personalizing your invites. From spelling errors to forgetting key elements like your ceremony time happens more than you’d think. Give yourself enough time to go over every little detail, from the wording to the font sizes. Pay attention to wedding invitation dos and don’ts to avoid mistakes.

2. Ask for a Proof Before It’s Printed

When you’re placing your order, ask to see a digital proof of your invitation before it’s printed. We offer this service free of charge (yay!). We’ll zip a proof to your email so you can review and approve it before we print.

When you get your proof, don’t just glance at it—really look. Read through the text a few times to make sure it flows nicely and makes sense. If you want to make any changes, you can easily edit your invitation.

3. Get Your Crew to Double-Check

Don’t go it alone—get some backup to proofread your invites.

Start with your partner since they’re just as invested in getting everything perfect. Then loop in a friend from your wedding party or anyone who’s good with words. Different eyes catch different stuff, and after staring at your invites for hours, you’re bound to miss something. Having a few extra sets of eyes ensures you catch any sneaky errors and keep your invites looking sharp.

In a nutshell, making killer wedding invites is all about taking your time, using those preview tools wisely, and getting your crew to give things a once-over. Pay attention to the details, ’cause your invites are the first taste of your big day, and you want them to be flawless.
