80501: Destination Wedding Postage Stamps

Once a couple has sealed the deal on their wedding plans, the time has arrived to invite those they hold dear to their I do's. Addressing the need to express a wedding theme on wedding invitation envelopes, ArtisticPostage.com has created a selection of destination and theme wedding stamps.
From Vegas to Niagara Falls It's a sure bet that the slot machine stamp, which displays wedding images, will hit the jackpot with guests invited to attend Vegas vows, while a Niagara Falls stamp offers a nostalgic postal portrait of one of the world's most beloved honeymoon locales.
Palm Postage Pairs planning to tie the knot at a tropical retreat can purchase palm-laden postage, while a beach motif features RSVP written in the sand. For brides who will walk down the aisle in an Asian-influenced ceremony, postage emblazoned with Chinese script for "love" or "marriage" displays a love for the culture.
Planning a Military Wedding? Military marriages can begin with wedding invitations mailed with patriotic-themed postage. According to stamp designer TDSWhite, "Wedding planning is very complicated. The last thing any bride wants to do, especially one who may be thousands of miles away from home and family support, is worry that she can't find the right stamp to make her wedding invitation package perfect -- especially because an invitation is the first thing a guest sees in relation to the wedding."
Artistic Postage also offers an array of traditional wedding designs, ranging from hearts to floral finery.

80318: This Year's Wedding Invitation Trends

We all love lists and so we were happy to run across this list of the top wedding invitation trends for 2008 from
Wedding Paper Divas:
• Non-traditional shapes. How about square or tea length cards?
•
Bright Colors & Unique Color Combinations: Invitations, wedding place cards and programs are getting bright with yellow, turquoise and lime tones. We thought this seemed like a great choice for destination brides opting for a tropical wedding.
• Time-Honored Monograms: Every year the bridal industry wonders if monograms will go out of style, but they remain as popular as ever. Whether on save the date cards, wedding invitations or wedding thank you cards, classic monograms are still au courant.
• Mother Nature’s Finest: We're all trying to go green as much as possible these days so it seems perfect to incorporate a natural feel in the invitation with things such as a leaf or flower motif. We think this would be perfect for a mountain wedding.
• Modern toile: Toile inspiration is making a contemporary comeback with classic and highly intricate scenes designed with unusual colors.
• Something old, something new: Ecru paper and letterpress printing are a new trend for today's bride.
• Get Cultured: More couples are adding a little ethnic flavor to their stationery, whether through cultural motifs, meaningful quotes or relevant color combinations. We think this is a great way to add local flavor to a destination wedding!
• Wedding Websites: Very popular with destination brides, these pages include details about the couple, their courtship, and their wedding. Couples are encouraging their guests to read more about their event or even RSVP online by adding the URL to their wedding website directly onto bridal shower invitations and wedding invites.
