When you are planning a wedding, the invitation should be the first thing on your to do list. Whatever type of wedding you are planning should be reflected in your invitations so that your guests can get a feel or an idea of what the theme will be. Red velvet wedding invitations, for example, will be perfect for a medieval themed wedding, or a baroque style. There are actually many themes that red velvet wedding invitations will work for, but you should decide for yourself what style they will be and how much is too much. All in all, Do it yourself invitations are the cheapest option, so make sure to stay away from expensive decorative elements and be creative.
The velvet can cover the entire invitation, or it can be used for the border. You can even use red velvet to make a heart shape for the front of the invitation and that can be used for any classic theme. Red velvet invitations will add a touch of luxury and warmth to your wedding and your guests will love the texture and richness when they open the envelope.
If you want to create red velvet wedding invitations, there are many ways of doing this. There are various companies online and in your local directory that specializes in designing these type of modern invitations and if you explain to them that you want to include touches of red velvet they will do just that. If you want to make your own red velvet wedding invitations here are a few ideas:
Classic style - Choose the fancy card that you would like for your red velvet wedding invitations and design the wording on a computer. Print them out in a square size and leave a wide border all the way around it. Take your velvet material and cut it into slightly narrower strips to stick onto the edges. Make sure that you leave a tiny space at the edge of the card, so that you get a more three dimensional effect. You can also use red velvet to make a ribbon on the envelope.
Medieval style - The velvet should be used as your main invitation. Paste a smaller size piece of thin card onto a rectangle piece of rich red velvet. You can do fancy writing by hand in gold or if you want an old effect then stain the paper with tea bags before you paste it onto the velvet. Once you have allowed the lettering to dry, roll it up into a scroll and tie loosely with a piece of raffia or thin ribbon. You can add some dried wheat onto your authentic looking red velvet wedding invitations to finish it off.
