Burgundy Marsala Wedding Invitations
WEDDING INVITATIONS BY COLOUR
Many weddings ago, "marsala" was known as "the wine or merlot colour".
This year marsala resurfaced in all its boom and can be seen on invitations, decorations, flowers and bridesmaids dresses with the following names:
burgundy, merlot, maroon and the most heard: marsala. It is often paired with floral designs of all kinds but it can also be used as simple belly bands with text.
Burgundy looks fabulous with navy blue, forest green and if you dare the bold: try a burgundy card stock with gold foil script wording.

SIMPLE PRINTED INVITATIONS
I usually hear " I want my invitations simple, elegant and perfect". Let's see what we understand as simple: simple is often a flat card,
no layers, no elements crafted, no ribbons, no belly bands. These type of wedding invitations can be still elegant and perfect.
They can be printed just with text or wording or have a design or border included. The simple printed wedding invitations are easy to customise.
They can be digitally printed or foil printed (quite more expensive but still simple).

WHEN TO SEND OUT YOUR WEDDING INVITATIONS
You can start by sending save the date cards before you send wedding invitations.
It is best to send the save the date cards at least twelve months before the big date.
Sending the save the date cards is a good idea, especially if you have several guests travelling from abroad and from out of town.
Covid time makes very hard to predict what it will happen so penciling a day can help your guests get organized around your wedding day.
