Designing Our Wedding Invitations with Minted

The first step we took when we first started to design our invitations was taking a look at all of the pre-made designs Minted had available  to get a good starting point. I loved how we were able to order a “sample kit” of 10 designs we liked to get an idea of what they looked like in real life. We picked several designs that we loved but ultimately chose one to start with as a ‘base line’. We loved a specific design but knew we wanted to make it a bit more custom to our specific wedding style.

After we selected the design we loved the most, I looked up photos of our wedding colors to send to one of the design associates at Minted. Figuring out our wedding colors deserves an entire blog post of it’s own, but we were easily able to relay this information to the designer. We also wanted to add a little bit more custom detail to our invitation suite, including a custom map of the area our wedding will be in. We had them design a simple Charleston map including a few of the prime wedding festivity spots and hotels we suggested.

The design associate at Minted was able to make every little change we wanted, adjust the colors, create the custom map all within a very, very reasonable time frame. We’re looking forward to ordering some matching wedding programs once our ceremony timeline gets finalized. Overall, we had such a pleasant experience using Minted to design our wedding invitations and we love how the final result turned out!

drum roll………………….
