Beach Wedding Invitation

From LoveToKnow Weddings

You're in love, and the wedding date has been selected. Your dream wedding on the beach is planned...the setting, the minister, the music. You have the perfect beach wedding dress, and your mom has finally stopped making comments about sand in the wedding cake. Now all you need are the beach wedding invitations. Somehow a regular creamy white linen invitation with doves and ribbons doesn't seem right. It doesn't fit with the theme or the feel of your beach wedding.

A shell border may be perfect for beach invitations.

Beach Wedding Invitation Ideas

Relax...the wedding industry has caught on to the growing numbers of destination and beach weddings and is ready to provide you with the perfect invitations and announcements for your special day. From photo invitations to hand-painted and calligraphied works of art, the right stationery for your wedding is out there waiting for you.

Rather than search through book after book of traditional invitation styles, check out the catalogs devoted entirely to beach and destination weddings. Companies like Destination Weddings, LCI, and The Front Door offer a beautiful selection of tropical and beach-themed invitaions and favors.

Crafty brides might want to considering making their own beach-themed invitations. Beautiful vellum papers featuring etherial oceanscapes are available at many scrapbook stores -- use them to make an overlay for coordinating cardstock underneath, or print directly on the vellum and attach it to the cardstock with ribbon or brads. Tiny memorabelia pockets let you attach small shells or a little packet of beach sand to the invitation, giving the guests a preview of the setting for your big day.
