The "design" of a wedding is one of my favorite part of the planning process. Over the years I’ve moved from a “DIY and heavily styled” aesthetic and evolved into a “less is more” aesthetic, which means I tend to embrace the natural elements that create the best overall experience for both the couple and their guests. Floral and paper being two elements that are often highest on my list!

It is no secret that guests will have a lot of questions about your impending wedding from where to stay to what to wear. A wedding website provides a great resource that can be updated often as details get ironed out (highly recommended!), but a wedding invitation suite is an equally important part of the equation. Not only does it give the details of the event, but it sets the tone for the entire wedding.

You have a variety of options - some like to keep it simple with only one or two , whereas others like to create the perfect package with as many details as possible about the big day. And let's not forget about the endless options of design possibilities!

Enter - Basic Invite. Just take a look at a few of my favorites that they have to offer:

Every invitation is part of a set, so it is easy to take care of all your paper needs in one place. Save-The-Dates, Bridal Shower invitations AND thank you cards in one place?! WIN.

Plus (and this one is a big plus) Basic Invite allows customers to order a printed sample of their actual invitation so they can see exactly how it will turn out before they ever place an order.

With almost an unlimited number of wedding invitation color options, 40 envelope color options (look at all those colors!!), and over 200 designs, Basic Invite has it all when it comes to the perfect invitation suite.

Pretty cool, huh?! Check out Basic Invite's amazing collection of goodies online and tell us what you think about them!
