Ways to Embellish your Wedding Invitations

One of the best ways to make your wedding invitation stand out is by adding embellishments, or add-ons, to your stationery set. In the photo above, you’ll see this bride chose to add:

  • A lace envelope liner
  • Twine tied around her invitation
  • A kraft-paper backing card
  • Printed the return address on her envelopes

She also printed matching Thursday night activity cards, Friday night rehearsal dinner invites, and dance-only postcards that all match on textured Feltweave paper!

Other embellishment add-ons include:

  • Maps
  • Crystals
  • Ribbon/bows
  • Buttons
  • Printed tags
  • Paper bands
  • Pearl, silver, or crystal brads
  • And more!

Hitch Design Studio loves to make your invitations unique! Take a look at the unique black and white foil invitation on black matte paper, which makes these invitations so modern! And even better, Russell & Katie’s wedding colors are neutral colors (beige, latte, cappucino, cream, etc.) and black. The only thing I love more than designing these wedding invitations is the couple I designed them for. (Love you, Russell & Katie! {my little brother and his wife}) I couldn’t be more excited that you’re married! xoxo

Their invitation also had a crystal brad that kept all the cards connected in the upper left corner. The back page of the invitation had a perforated RSVP card, so that guests could just rip off and send in their reply and it’s still connected to the invitation! Another invitation below had a ribbon tied around her invite so that the RSVP could tuck inside her invitation. She also glued nine crystals to the inside! Here are other add-ons from our favorite invitations:
