You have decided to get married on the beach with sounds of surf in the background. You’ve picked the date and chosen the perfect setting for your wedding. Beach invitations are the perfect tool for announcing the celebration to your guests. Your goal? To entice friends and family to share your special day with you.

To fulfill your hope, you’ll want to create an invitation that is so attractive, your guests will be tempted to frame it to help them remember the beauty of your wedding. If you are like most couples, you’ll also want to keep an eye on how much you spend for your invitations. The average couple spends about five per cent of their wedding budget on invitations. Surprisingly, that’s $1,000 for a $20,000 wedding. Beach invitations can cost much less than that. Rather than hiring a graphics designer to take on the task, trim your budget by creating your own.

Creating your own beach invitations may seem like a thorny challenge at first. Luckily, there’s no cause for stress. With so many choices of paper, color, and type-styles, you can easily craft invitations that perfectly reflect your unique style…without breaking the bank. This is a chance for you to be as wild and creative as you would like. Have fun!
