It is believed that happiness is doubled when shared, and what’s better than sharing the happiness of your most special day with your loved ones? Your wedding will be one of the most exuberant events in your life and your wedding invitations should set the stage to reflect your dream. Be it caricatures of the bride and groom or the fancy animated e-invites, wedding invitations have evolved to be a style statement.

Now, with the popularity of destination weddings, invites have become more than mandatory. The idea of creating some out-ofthe-box invites that will excite and intrigue the guests has become a major trend of sorts.

There is nothing traditional about a destination wedding and your wedding invite is the first opportunity to set the tone for the big day. What you say, and how you say it, will reflect the romance, fun and excitement that await the guests. This is also an opportunity to personalise the invitation cards with your own creativity.

“Most couples choose destination weddings because they want to celebrate with close family and friends who really matter to them. This gives them control over their guest list and the freedom to personalize their weddings. Wedding invites are the first thing you start working on once you have booked your venue. It is fun, easy and exciting to customize cute invitations based on your destinations,” says Vithika Agarwal, a Bangalore based wedding and party planner.
