Indian wedding invitations

The world may be moving at lightning pace and may have given up on many traditional customs, but India continues to amaze with its reverence for old customs and ancestral norms. Most of the world is now resorting to internet to invite their friends and relatives for a wedding. Even social sites like Facebook or Twitter are used to send out invites. However, the Indians take massive pride in their strong-rooted rituals and still send out wedding invitation cards which are printed on parchments. The sobriety, novelty and charm of this old-world tradition win all hearts. In the era when the glitzy internet is robbing us of many of our old charms, this custom followed religiously in all Indian weddings bring a smile on the faces and evoke lots of nostalgia.

Apart from the quaintness and novelty of the tradition, it is also very appealing to the eye. The modern day designers are coming up with their own strategies & exclusive themes to woo everyone. The Indian wedding invitations of today's times are not just pieces of paper & parchment but are so well embellished that one feels compelled to silently appreciate the effort & art that has gone into their making. Some cards are studded with mirrors, while some are jeweled with stones or sequins. So, despite being an old norm, it has been positively impacted by technology. 


Budget is another fact which needs to be considered while ordering wedding invitation cards. India is a country which has people from all classes & strata of society. They have varying levels of income and hence their budget can differ a lot. So, the designers are always prepared to cater to the taste & budget of different clients. There are simple & sober cards which are cheaper. And there are designer wedding cards which can be lent an exotic look with various hand-works of sequins, stones & gems. 




Another thing is the timing of the order! Ideally, it is prudent to keep some hand in time for safety. So, preferably, cards should be ordered a few weeks in advance. That gives a cushioning in case there are unavoidable delays or in case some rectification has to be made later. Also, if you can get the cards delivered to your home a few days prior to the marriage, then you can send them out with greater convenience and without undue haste. If some of your relatives are stationed in different cities or reside outside the country, then it would be vital to courier the Indian wedding invitations a few days in advance. All these factors warrant that you should not leave things for the last moment and select a supplier around a month or two in advance. 


Nevertheless, online suppliers are very brisk these days and can take up your orders even if you make an urgent request. They have certain readymade themes to help you choose the right category of designer wedding cards. Alternatively, you can always ask for a personalized cad with custom-made messages, themes, colors & background.
