Beach Wedding Invitations - Get your Guests in the Mood to Travel
Whether you are planning a warm and tropical beach wedding or use
the sea and the beach as your wedding theme, we have the perfect beach wedding invitations to
match your wedding needs. The invitation can set the stage, or the theme of your wedding and give your guests a
taste of what is to come. Moreover, novelty invitations that incorporate island or beach themes will excite and
encourage your guests to overlook the travel expense and be at your side on your special day.
No matter where your beach wedding will take place, whether in Florida, California,
Hawaii, the Caribbean Islands, or in a wedding hall decorated in nautical style, you certainly want to send
out beach wedding invitations that reflect this theme.
We have cards to match your taste and style. From whimsical beach wedding invitations shaped as a pop-up
Adirondack chair, to invitations with pictures of gorgeous beach landscapes, cards with palm tree or
starfish-design, flip-flop and waves.
Furthermore, consider the following ideas:
-
A message in a bottle idea using a weathered parchment
scroll
-
White card decorated with a single shell instead of a logo

Traditional invitations tied in raffia or Hessian for an earthy
look

around that

invitation
Buying the invitations takes time, but not nearly as much time as getting them
sent out! Do you know the proper wedding invitation etiquette? Yes, there is a proper way to do your
invitations. In this article I have put together the most important points for you. Follow them and you will
hear no word of critic after your beach wedding is over.
-
Write out names in full, including middle names. Omit a middle name if
necessary, rather than using an initial.
-
It's appropriate to use the British spelling for "honour" and "favour",
unless you prefer to use the American spelling of these words.
-
Spell out all words, including the hour, the date, and the year. Spell
out all words in the address, including Street, Road and Avenue. The two exceptions to this rule
in an address are Saint (St.) and Mount (Mt.)
-
Use Roman numerals in names, rather than "the third" or "3rd."
-
For ceremonies taking place in a house of worship, use "request the
honour of your presence." Ceremonies taking place in a non-religious setting should say, "request
the pleasure of your company
Invitations can often be an afterthought during the planning stages of a beach
wedding. However unique and original beach wedding invitations will set the stage, or the
theme of your wedding and give your guests a taste of what is to come.Copyright Ron Smith and MyBeachFavors.com, ©2006. All rights reserved.
