Why wedding invitations matter
A wedding invitation has two key roles:
✓ Officially announce the wedding
It’s the formal message that sets the date and invites your loved ones.
✓ Communicate the style and theme
Colors, typography and paper choices should reflect the couple’s vibe.
Example: A boho‑chic wedding often uses beige/green palettes and dried florals, while a glam wedding tends to go with gold and white.
