Floral Invitation

I am thinking of wedding invitation business.

How do people design the templates for wedding invitations?
example: http://www.weddingpaperdivas.com/persona lize/94303/Floral%20Band.html?#

Do they draw them, scan, and edit them using Photoshop or something?

Where can I find the tutorial, and also, if they use softwares, what softwares other than Photoshop?

Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Microsoft Word might have templates (pre designed) online for free, then you would add the appropriate text, info etc. Under the help menu theres a search option, type in keywords to find them like "invitations" "wedding".

First of all, thank you for looking! I would like to hear your ideas. My wedding is a fair time away, but I'm doing some preliminary planning ahead of time while I still have time on my hands :) First of all, what did you do of your own? Did you make your own invitations? Use wood veneer? Cardstock and a paper punch? Did you do your own favors and programs? Centerpieces? Cake? Did you do your own bouquets and boutonnieres? Real or silk flowers? How many people did you find most helpful in planning this? How many days ahead of time did you prep? Did you find that what you did was worth your time? I hear that brides-to-be begin to feel the crunch...I've read so many books about crafts, including wedding crafts, but I'd like to hear from you. Working with a real budget, real family members on a realistic schedule. Different techniques? Did you have fun?

In case it's helpful, I am hoping it will be wedding and reception on the smaller side.

I did my own small wedding, and helped a friend do her bigger wedding. Before jumping into it, see what you can find ready made, for low cost. Don't set out making 100 favors when you can go to OrientalTrading.com and get 100 favors for $50. What I'm saying is, make sure that doing it yourself really IS going to save money. Same with invitations...depending on how you make them, they could get very expensive. Flowers are tricky cuz you dont want to get them too soon, so you're kinda cramming that in last minute, even the day before. Do you want that stress? My friend (and her bridesmaids) made their bouquets and all the corsages/boutonnieres the day before. She got a local florist to make her bridal bouquet though, since that is the most important. All the flowers looked pretty good, but basic, and hers was full, gorgeous, and amazing. So it worked out really well. Her mom made the cake, and it turned out awful, so if someone 'offers' to make it, make sure they have skill! It's cheaper to rent linens than buy all the fabric you need...unless you find fabric on super sale and have a little sewing skill. Also see what you can borrow. I was able to borrow linens from my church. Basic white, but hey they were free!


So it depends on a lot of factors. What is your overall theme of the day? Another word of advice...start with a plan and try to stick to it. if you're theme is beach, don't go out and buy things just because they have a seashell on them....it gets tacky. Don't be so literal when it comes to 'themes' of that nature. You also come away with tons of mismatched clearance stuff. So just because its on sale doesn't mean you should use it.

I could go on and on and on and on ....but I wont!
Good luck!

I miss picture frames that were decorated with floral and raised gilded designs similar to a wedding invitation that is beautifully created or beautiful Victorian frames. All I see are plain wood, plastic, and clear picture holders with no wood frame edges. Do they make decorated frames with flowers, pearls, etched flower, gold, silver? Any websites that sell them? Thank you so much.

if you can't find any picture frames you like buy plain frame and decorate it yourself, that way you'll have something that you really like with not much monetary outlay.

Where do you find those pictures that people print on their wedding invites? I've seen cherry blossoms, vines, and other floral motifs. Is there a site or software that these can be lifted from? I'm looking to incorporate a tropical flower/hibiscus motif on my wedding invitations.

Google Images "tropical flower clip art" or "hibiscus clip art"
