Wedding Invitations are much more exciting to make when you have a themed wedding. Like in this case, a beach wedding theme. Wedding invitations doesn't have to be expensive. You don't need to have it printed in a fancy invitation shop, after all, weddings at the beach doesn't need to be formal.

You can even make your own beach wedding theme invitations! You just need to purchase a beautiful card-like paper, choose your own design and print it! You can also put some seashells, a bit of sand or pearls or starfish; anything that will make your invitation feels like you're heading for the beach.

When creating your beach theme wedding invitation, here are a couple of things to keep in mind:

Invitations should be simple and to the point. Your invitation should inform your guests of the date, time, location and hosts of your wedding. You may also include reception information if you choose. (Reception to follow at...time, location)

Unless you are having a very formal wedding, pretty well anything goes with your invitation these days.

• Lose those stodgy old formal verses, write your own.
• Use your favorite clip art, photos or design your own graphics.
• There is nothing saying your card has to be square. Make it in the shape of a seashell if you want to.
• You could even design your invitations to look like theatre tickets, or dance tickets with a tear off stub for a "save a date" reminder!
• Another popular idea is to use postcard for RSVP's. This saves you moneyon postage and envelopes.

The design of your beach theme wedding invitation will give your guests a glimpse of the tone of your wedding celebration. With that in mind,match your invitation to your theme! Do not send out seriously formal invitations to a beach party theme. Make sure your guests know what to expect!

Once you choose your design, keep it constant throughout your invitations,wedding programs and thank you cards.
