As a wedding photographer, I get to see the inspiring setups and decorations that brides and grooms… (Mainly brides, lets me be real here) spend countless hours tweaking and planning and obsessing over. Every wedding is so unique these days. Often when I’m speaking to friends and family, they inevitably ask me, what is the coolest wedding you’ve been to? Or what was the most unique, or the weirdest, etc. The thing that I often reply with is… There are no “normal” weddings anymore. Everyone is unique. And every wedding is unique as well. Gone are the days of the one size fits all option.

I love to get a sense for how things are going to be at the big day. And perhaps the first indication I have of that, is when I get an invite from the bride and groom. It’s always fun to see what colour scheme, paper, look and feel they’re chosen to go for. Straightforward and to the point? Or frilly and pretty and elaborate? There are an infinite number of options out there, which is what makes the discovery so much fun. You get just a little behind the scenes look just what makes that couple tick.

You already have a million things to think about so what if there was a service that could help with this task?

Enter, www.basicinvite.com this is a service that helps you plan out, explore and really capture that feeling that you’re looking for. They offer all kinds of different services including really slick wedding websites. They are customizable and super pretty. I see some pretty bad wedding websites out there, consider this solution. They're mobile friendly and super easy to use. You can instantly upload all of your wedding details, along with images, and a convenient map with directions for your guests. Choose from 180 custom colors, and a design suite so that you can make your website line up perfectly with your invitations.

When you’re looking to craft your perfect invites, the colours and customizations are almost unlimited. That one of their biggest draws, you can change the color of each element on a card, with over 180 different color options. The card can be exactly how you want it, down to the littlest detail. And you get to see what it’s going to look like with a live preview. In order to get a really great idea of a hard copy you can also request a wedding card sample. I will warn you though! Once you check out their website, you’re going to see so many amazing looking examples and samples that you are gonna have a hard to choosing!!

I should also mention that they aren’t just limited to invites. They offer the whole shebang. From Menu cards, and fun stickers to coasters and free printables like checklists and Instagram signs. When I first looked through their site I was blown away. I found these super cute name cards for wedding that just add that extra detailed touch to tie the whole thing together.
