Picking the right pictures for your wedding eVite

When it comes to a wedding invitation, what is a picture really worth? 08bw If a picture is worth ten thousand words, then with an invitation from MyInvitationLink.com you could write a novel about your relationship. But what does a picture really add to an invitation? Emotion, familiarity, character. The right picture can make the invitation speak to the hearts of the viewers. There are some things you can do to make sure that you use the right pictures in your invitation.

First, start with a picture with a clear image of your faces. Sure there are a lot of cute pictures of you both wrestling, but people really want a good look at that cutie you’re engaged to.  Remember that you have lots of slides to show your personality, but first give us a good look at your face.  Pick a picture where you both look great.  This should probably be the same picture you would send with your paper invitations.

Now it is time to show your creativity.  Your favorite pictures tell a lot about your relationship.  Find a good picture of you both at Halloween. . . or faces painted at a sporting event. . .one taken with a camera phone of your first date. . .this is the time to put in a good smooching picture.  Pictures can say, we have so much fun together or look how happy we are together.  In all of your fun, just remember one thing, this is still a wedding invitation.  Make sure that the picture is appropriate for everyone you send it to.

We have seen some really creative invitations.  One couple used pictures of themselves as kids and then used a photo editing software to add text to the picture.  Seeing the couple as children was fun, and it was nice to see their ages at the times the pictures were taken. sadie This picture is an example of what can be done with some software and a touch of design.

No matter what pictures you pick, make sure that they say what you are trying to tell about your relationship.  I don’t know if all pictures are worth ten thousand words, but you certainly can illustrate your story.  Pictures will excite the people you send the invitation to.  The right pictures will have them watching it over and over.
