The Royal Wedding Invitations have been sent

As a wedding invitation designer I was curious to know what the Royal wedding invitations for Prince William and Kate Middleton would look like.  While we don’t have to wonder anymore.  The invitations were sent out February 15th and 16th, 2011.  1,900 invitations were sent in total!  And you thought your guest list was long! (http://royalwedding.aol.com)  The invitations were printed in gold writing on very heavy cardstock with gilded edges, the dimensions were 10” x 6”.  The wording for the wedding invitations were as follows:

The Lord Chamberlain is commanded by
The Queen to invite
(the recipient of the invitation)
to the Marriage of
His Royal Highness Prince William of Wales
with
Miss Catherine Middleton
at Westminster Abbey
on Friday, 29th April, 2011 at 11:00 a.m.

Royal Wedding Invitation

The invitations are sent by regular mail via the Post Office at Buckingham Palace.  The invitations have the Royal crest and stamp.  Certain people have to be invited to the event including foreign heads of state, foreign royalty (many who are relatives and friends), charity leaders, prime ministers as well as immediate family of the bride and groom.   It is also said that some university friends were invited (eonline.ca)

There is no “A-list” and “B-list” for the Royal Wedding. (ctv.ca)  Guests were telephoned in advance so they knew if they were going to be invited, if they were unable to attend they did not receive an invitation.  An RSVP card and envelope were not included (not because they want their guests to reply on their wedding website or e-mail them!)  Guests were asked to mail their response in a letter to a specific address in the corner of the invitation (http://royalwedding.aol.com)

Product Spotlight: Photo Invitations with More

A ‘Photo Wedding’ invitation is a recent design concept in the wedding industry.  The pictures first appeared as a printed photo attached to or enclosed with an invitation.

Now photo invitations are printed professionally onto the invitation.  There are several different styles of photo invitations, the most common beinging single panel or folded cards printed with the couple’s photo, the invitation text and possibly a design.

However if you want a photo invitation, but do not want to settle for just a single panel or folded card, there are now options for you.   Stylart is the company considered as the innovators of the photo wedding invitation and are very current on their modern and trendy photo designs.  You can visit the website and see a wide variety of photo invitations with beautiful designs, different colours, pockets, enclosures, ribbons, embellishments and more.

Our ‘featured’ invitation is a combination of a photo invitation with modern elegance.  This invitation is called “Satin Wrapped Merlot”  and is also available in Blue.

This vertical invite displays four of your photos framed  on both sides with the color merlot (or blue). A vellum overlay shows the invite wording in a classy raised print style; a satin ribbon holds the two together.
