Do-it-yourself invitation kits bridge the gap between expensive pre-ordered invitations and laborious homemade invites for your wedding or special occasion. Kits typically come with invitation cards, at the very least, but most come with reception and response cards and envelopes. Part of the beauty of these kits is that you can customize them as much as you like, choosing a kit that fits your style, budget and the amount of crafting you want to put into the process.

Instructions

    • 1

      Shop around for invitation kits. Look for kits that fit into your budget, are visually appealing to you and go with your wedding design.

    • 2

      Create a checklist for elements you absolutely want in your invitation kits. Note if you want RSVP or reception cards included, or if you want single-sheet invites. If you only want pre-decorated kits, put that down. Narrow down your choices based on this list and step one criteria.

    • 3

      Order the kit you've chosen. Purchase enough invitations, plus several extras in case you add to your guest list or have an invite printing blooper.

    • 4

      Read and follow instructions on the kit. Kits vary in customization options, template use and printing processes, so this is important.

    • 5

      Read the wording on the invitation template. Adjust it to reflect your own personal style and your wedding theme. Traditional, formal wording may not be for you, or you may be looking for the most elegant invite possible.

    • 6

      Spend time choosing the font that's just right for your invitation. Fonts can make or break your invitation's visual style. Calligraphy works well for more formal invites, and contemporary, sleek invites look better with slim, simple fonts.

    • 7

      Add embellishments such as paper flowers, ribbon, buttons or even embroidery if your kit didn't come with pre-decorations. A simple rose or bird stamp in the corner also works well if you want to save time and labor.
