Bridal shower invitations are an important grace note for any bridal shower you throw. You need to get them right, and with a party in the offing, you need to get them done quickly and easily. To save time and money when you choose invitations, follow this guide to the most efficient way to pick out shower invitations.
First, pick out a design for the bridal shower invitations. Going online is the best way to do this; online stores let you search their catalogs by style, theme, or color, and you do not need to waste time driving from store to store and getting clerks to help you with the sample books. If the bride bought her wedding invitations already, then your job is already done, since many wedding invitation sets have a matching design for bridal shower invitations.
Once you know what the cards will look like, you can lay out the text. Details like what the bridal showers theme is, whether the party is formal or casual, whether the shower is a surprise, where the bride is registered, the URL of the bridal shower page, and the bridal shower hosts name are thoughtful additions to the usual rundown of the brides name, the shower location, date, and time, and the RSVP information. Try to be straightforward, not cutesy. You have seen horrible jokes on invitations before, so you know how easy it is for humor to go astray.
Add matching envelopes and seals, address labels, and other small touches. Choosing to have the return address preprinted on the envelopes will spare you the step of printing and sticking return labels as well as address labels. When your invitation package is complete, choose how quickly you want the invitations shipped to you. Faster shipping is preferable to slower shipping because you will want a little extra time to resend any invitations that get lost in the mail. If the party plans are in flux, rather than waiting until the last minute to buy invitations, consider sending out invitations earlier and putting up a web page for the party with the most up to date information.
When you finish, hit the "order complete" button and get ready to see your cards in the mail shortly. Most online stores print bridal shower invitations extremely quickly, so you can often have your invitations within the week. Assemble the invitations, print out address labels and stick them on, and drop the invitations in the mail. Youre done! Now you can move on to the best part of the planning, and get ready to throw a splendid bridal shower.
