Wedding Invitations

Wedding invitation designs can vary widely depending on personal preferences and wedding themes. However, some trending designs we love right now on wedding invitations include:

• Blooms & Botanicals: Incorporating floral patterns, pressed botanicals and lush greenery for a romantic and nature-inspired look.

• Vintage Vibes: Includes a mix of soft pastel colors and delicate vintage motifs like bows and ribbons that evoke a sense of timeless elegance.

• New Rustic: Combines rustic charm with modern sophistication. Features subtle southwestern elements like sunflowers and warm tones like yellows, tans and browns.

• Dreamy Destinations: Tailoring the design to reflect the wedding's destination or theme, such as beach, desert, ranch or mountain weddings.

• Bold Type: Plays up the text on the wedding invitation, with the couple's names or a fun phrase as the focal point. Often includes a neutral color palette and mixed typography.

• Pretty & Playful: Emphasizing non-traditional layouts, whimsical fonts and bold colors; perfect for the bride and groom who are throwing a more casual wedding celebration.

Fortunately, our wedding collection includes hundreds of design options, and they span a wide range of these same styles: classic, rustic, super-modern and more. (If you’re plannning a destination wedding, we have specific designs for that, too.) As you explore your options, you’ll be able to filter our personalized wedding invitations by style, size, color and more – if you have something in mind, this makes it easier to quickly find your perfect design.

Designing beautiful wedding invitations with VistaPrint is stress-free and fun – as it should be! Follow these simple steps to create invites you can't wait to send out:

• Choose an Invitation Style: Browse through our wedding invitation templates to find the one that perfectly fits your bid day's vibe. Once you've landed on a design, you'll be asked to select a trim style (standard, rounded or scalloped) and embossed foil details, with options for gold, silver or glitter if you want to add a little extra shine to your invites.

• Customize Your Invitation: Now's the time to add all the details that make your wedding invitations authentically yours! In our design studio, you'll be able to personalize all the elements of your invitations including text, colors, images, even QR codes. And if you have specific images or graphics you'd like to include, you can easily add them using our image upload tool. To make sure your design fits on the final product, first scroll down to "Product Options" and click "Size." There you'll find design specs and downloadable templates. Using these guidelines will allow you to gauge how much you'll need to adjust the size of your design for it to fit on the product – and avoid white spaces or gaps.

• Preview Your Design: Before finalizing your order, take advantage of the preview feature to see how your invitation will look once it's printed. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure that everything looks perfect.

• Choose Your Paper Type & Quantity: To finish off your invites, browse through our paper stock options and select your favorite. Keep in mind the durability and weight of the paper – thicker stocks tend to feel more substantial and luxurious, while lighter stocks may have a more delicate feel. Additionally, some papers may enhance the colors and details of your design better than others. However, with matte, pearl, linen, glossy and hemp-blend paper stocks, we're sure to have an option that effortlessly compliments your invites. Finally, select your desired quantity and add your wedding invitations to your cart!

• Complete Your Purchase: Enter your payment and shipping information to finalize your order and then, sit back and relax (you deserve it!). We'll take it from here, professionally printing and packaging your wedding invitations in time for the best day ever.

With our Graphic Design Services, you can work with a professional designer to update one of our existing templates –make color changes, add design elements and more. If you’re interested in taking the design process to the next level with a bespoke invitation, we’re excited to help bring your vision to life.

We don’t offer custom samples at this time – but opting for our 4.6 x 7.2 size option allows you to order just one. This is a cost-effective way to see and feel your invites in person before you fully commit. After reviewing the color, paper and size, reordering a higher quantity is quick and easy. If you want to make any updates, you’ll be able to edit your design in our studio. Either way, your order – and satisfaction – is absolutely guaranteed.

Yes – while we can’t help you choose the cake flavor or DJ (much as we’d like to!), we are here for all of your wedding stationery needs. First, determine the overall style and theme of your wedding day. Whether it's classic, modern, rustic or whimsical, your stationery suite is a great opportunity to reflect the aesthetic you've always dreamed of and give guests a first impression of it. You can use your invitation design to create matching RVSP cards, envelopes and enclosures. And you can then extend that look to the rest of your wedding essentials, from ceremony programs to menus and even custom thank you cards. Or, you can mix and match colors and design elements from different pieces for a playful and expressive stationery suite. Whatever you decide, we’re excited to be with you for every step of your wedding journey.

That all comes down to what you have planned. Itinerary cards are essential if you’re hosting multiple events. As for wedding programs, you may or may not need them depending on the actual ceremony. If your ceremony is on the shorter side, it won’t hurt to skip them. If there’ll be multiple components (prayers, blessings, songs, communion), we strongly suggest including them. Programs are especially handy at multicultural ceremonies and help any guests who are unfamiliar with the proceedings follow along.

It's generally recommended that you send wedding invitations at least 6-8 weeks before your big day. This will give guests plenty of time to mark their calendars and RSVP. However, if you're planning a destination wedding or need to accommodate for international guests, it's better to send out your invites around 3 months in advance. And because we know time-savers are like breaths of fresh air when planning a wedding, VistaPrint is happy to provide free recipient addressing when you add custom envelopes to your order. Just start your address list by entering your recipients one by one or use a previously uploaded list. You can also customize how you want your recipient's name(s) to appear on your envelopes. For example, if you're addressing another married couple, you can use "Mr." and "Mrs." followed by the husband's full name (i.e., Mr. and Mrs. Paul Anderson). Alternatively, you can list both first names individually (i.e., Mr. Paul Anderson and Mrs. Sharon Anderson). For unmarried couples, living together, list the full names together on one line. And for families, you can address all the members collectively (i.e., The Monroe Family) or include children's names below their parents. You'll be able to preview your addresses right on the envelopes as you go to ensure you don't miss anything. Once you're done, just click on "Add to Cart" and we'll take care of the rest – your envelopes will arrive pre-addressed and ready for you to send near and far.
