If you dream it, it can happen.  That’s how many types of wedding invitations are “out there.”  Even if you have a budget to keep in mind, you still have many many options to choose from.  How your invitations are printed is the major factor that determines what they will cost. 
Engraved Wedding Invitations: Traditional invitations use the expensive engraving process. You can identify an engraved invitation by the sharp, raised text and the indentation on the back side. 

Thermographed:  This method of printing gives the text an elegant raised effect, but is less expensive than engraving. 

Printed:  This can be done by a printing company or with a home computer.  This is the most popular method of printing of wedding invitations because of its wealth of options and affordability. 

Handwritten:  Handwritten invitations are elegant and perfect for smaller weddings. 

Packaging is another consideration you will need to make with your invitations.  Here again, there are many options.  Elaborate invitations may have ribbons or beads, while simple invitations may have a simple folder style. 

Your overall wedding style should also be considered when choosing your invitations.  Just as there are different types of weddings, there are also formal and casual wedding invitations.  Take care to find an invitation that coordinates with the style of your wedding, as it will give your guests great insight into what they can expect on the big day. 

If you choose a printed invitation, your options are a little more open. Most sites carry invitations that are already designed and then you can add the text, embellishments and images you’d like.  Most brides agree that one of the fun parts of the wedding planning process is choosing your wedding invitations!
