Precious Moments Wedding Invitations – Where To Find

Every bride wants to send out precious moments wedding invitations, to celebrate the wedding and most importantly remember the beautiful and memorable occasion that it is. Sam Butcher, creator of Precious Moments, probably never dreamed his adorable little messengers of encouragement would end up on everything from clothing to wedding invitations.

But they did, and for brides planning a wedding with either a Precious Moments theme or one with pastels, Precious Moments wedding cards and announcements are the perfect choice.

Precious Moments wedding invites are available in a variety of styles. French-cut invitations with a deckled edge that feature the traditional Precious Moment bride and groom are available from cheap wedding invitations. They include a matching card that can be used for either a thank-you or reply card.

A more whimsical and colorful invitation with a Precious Moments theme can be purchased from inexpensive wedding invitations. This invitation features a colorful Precious Moments bride and groom on a translucent overlay that is attached to the actual invitation with a white ribbon. These are single layer (stacked) wedding invitations and also include a reply card.

The wedding paper divas offers an alternative from traditional Precious Moments wedding invitations with their post-card style wedding invitations. These destination wedding invites feature an adorable Precious Moments couple in a hula skirt and beach wear. The only ‘downfall’ to these is the fact that there is no variation available on the layout or verse and the area reserved for the date/destination information is small.

Precious Moments wedding invitations tend to be a bit higher in cost than some others due to their licensed characters. You can plan on paying between $90 and $150 for fifty invitations with a Precious Moments theme.

If you are more of a do-it-yourself kind of bride, you can order print-your-own Precious Moments wedding invitations from gartnerstudios.com. They have a small silver/white foil Precious Moments bride and groom centered along the bottom of the invitation. They come complete with a response card, envelopes, templates for wording and printing instructions.

Using Precious Moments invites doesn’t have to be a precursor to wedding’s overall theme, but it can be. If you don’t want to carry the theme forward, however, there needs to be some sort of tie-in.

These possibilities include weddings using pastels or even darker shades of pink or yellow, weddings using daisies, tulips or wildflowers and casual outdoor weddings held in a garden venue. Oh, and one more thing…Precious Moments wedding invites should be used by younger first-time brides. They’re a bit ‘young’ for brides older than, say, twenty-five or who have been married previously.

As for the type of wedding suitable for using Precious Moments wedding cards casual to semi-formal weddings held in the late morning to early afternoon are fine. For evening affairs and those that are more formal, an invitation of this sort is inappropriate; something more formal will work better.

When deciding upon the wording for your Precious Moments wedding invitations, you’ll be able to find wording appropriate to your situation on any one of the nearly-countless bridal websites of magazines. As for the font, select something with rounded letters; nothing to sharp. Some suggestions include: French Script, Kristen Itc, Comic Sans or Monotype Corsiva.
