Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
My friend told me that it is not necessary to get an invitation in the same "theme" and or color just to get something that I fall in love with. The problem is I am not "falling in love" with anything with roses and or in pink/burgundy. What do you all think?

Re: Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
You dont "have to" do anything but my color scheme is pink and green so I am going to try to find invites I like in those colors but if I dont then, oh well, I will pick what I like.

Re: Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
If you get plain invitations then IMO it doesn't matter, but I wouldn't get like fall leaf invitations and then have a theme of Disney or something else totally unrelated to the fall leaves.

Re: Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
they don't HAVE to be the same theme and/or color, but i think it's a nice way to tie things together and give a "first glimpse" of the affair...

Re: Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
My girls are wearing a wine color and my invitations are a ivory creamy shimmery kind of color.
I am having the favors wrapped in the same color scheme as the invitations.
I figured that ivory pretty much matches with everything.

I don't think invites have to go with your theme. Mine do but I don't think it was important. I just loved the invite

I don't think they have to match your theme, but mine does. We have a rose theme:

Re: Do the invitations that you order have to be the same theme and or color as your wedding?
I definitly don't think it has too. Ours tied in some ways, but wasn't really meant to be a theme. It ended up more like a I picked an invite that ended setting a tone for my wedding.

I know they say your invitations gives a first impression of your wedding. IMO I feel your invite should be the same color or somehow coordinate to your wedding.

LIPrincess00, and dm24angel:
Thanks!
My invites are from Marsville Letter press. They are a small Canadian company. She has lots of designs and each one can be catered to your liking. For example, my could have come in a blue or green, not just pink.
She is also about $400 cheaper than other letterpress companies that I've seen.
Here's her website: Marsville
