Everything You Need to Know About Pink Wedding Invitations
Your wedding invitations are a formal announcement and action item for your guests. You want to inform your guests about exact details relating to your upcoming event, and this includes the key pieces of information. The host(s) name(s), the wedding couple’s names, date, time and venue information are the details most commonly featured on your pink wedding invitations.
Pink wedding invites are really any piece of stationery with the beautiful color on them. The paper itself could be pink, or the background or font color could showcase it. Either way, this adorable color is a perennial favorite among couples for countless reasons.
Here are some of the most popular color ideas for pink wedding invitations:
-
Light pink wedding invitations: This soft pastel works well for spring-style celebrations. Light pink wedding invitations may also coordinate with other pastel shades of orange, green and more. It is so subtle that it is a super neutral choice many couples love, and light pink wedding invitations range from classic to modern.
-
Blush pink wedding invitations: A slightly more saturated version of light pink, blush pink wedding invitations are a dreamy pair for boho or rustic events. The brighter tone can also go with a desert wedding, and it is a romantic color that is incredibly blissful. You can find blush pink wedding invitations that showcase the color in the background, paper or font.
-
Hot pink wedding invitations: Pack a punch with hot pink wedding invitations, a lovely complement for a summer fete. We can also easily see this color popping for a modern wedding, or a tropical destination — especially since the color often appears in gorgeous plumerias and other flowers.
Your pink wedding invitations are a fun, romantic way to say, “We’re getting married!” In it, you will also need to provide guests with information about how to submit their RSVPs. You can opt to send out printed wedding invitations and provide guests with a separate envelope, or you can ask for a digital RSVP with print or digital invites.
When to Send Out Your Pink Wedding Invitations
Your pink wedding invitations come with a specific timeline, and it depends on whether you want a printed or online invite. For the former, you need to give yourself enough time to request your order, have one of our designers make your pink wedding invitation and then for them to arrive at your door. Digital pink wedding invitations can be designed and sent out on the same day, though, since guests will receive them via email.
With all of this in mind, you should plan to send out your pink wedding invitation six to eight weeks prior to your wedding day. You want to give yourself a solid amount of time for guests to receive their invitations and send you an RSVP. This is why a deadline for your RSVP is so important; make it clear that you need to finalize your guest list by about three weeks before your event. There is a lot going on in the month leading up to your wedding day, so you want to be as organized as possible. Finalize your guest list once all of your RSVPs are in and then get started on handling seating arrangements and table assignments.
The Rest of Your Wedding Stationery Timeline
We went over when to send out your pink wedding invites, but what about the rest of your stationery suite? Here are a few key items to focus on as you map everything out for your celebration:
-
Wedding website: This is going to be your information hub for everything related to your wedding. In this space, you can include so many things: your registry, recommendations for things to do in the area where you’re getting married, photos of you and your partner and more. Plus, you can include any other last-minute or more detailed information that might not appear on your pink wedding invites.
-
Save the Dates: Save the Dates are typically sent out six to eight months before your wedding day—or even earlier if you are getting married in a destination locale. There is a wedding boom happening, so it is important to tell guests about your event as soon as possible.
-
Rehearsal wedding invitations: Your rehearsal dinner is often hosted the night before your wedding, but some opt for a few days prior as well. These invitations should be sent out about four to six weeks before the rehearsal. The same rules apply if you are planning on hosting a welcome party or post-wedding brunch. You can feature this on your wedding website, or you can also add it into the same envelope that holds your pink wedding invitation.
By understanding this timeline, you will feel prepared and organized when it comes to your wedding communication. While your pink wedding invitation is incredibly important, there are other pieces of the puzzle you need to consider as well.
Examples of Pink Wedding Invitation Templates
Pretty-in-pink invitations are a clear way to kick off the loving, romantic atmosphere you have always wanted. At Bliss & Bone, you will find so many pink wedding invitation templates to choose from. For a better idea of what you can find, here are some of our absolute favorite pink wedding invitation ideas:
-
Floral pink wedding invites: The color pink often makes us think of our favorite flowers, so it only makes sense that some of the most beautiful wedding invites come with such floral accents. For instance, the Lulu pink wedding invitation has a mix of pinks, oranges and creams for an explosion of whimsy and color. This is also the ideal option for couples who love the idea of hot pink wedding invitations, but want something more classic. As an alternative floral option, the Hayden light pink wedding invitations showcase bunched-up peonies in the background.
-
Modern pink wedding invites: Modern wedding invitations often stick with a minimalist vibe, and come with any color combinations—from muted and cozy to bright and bold. The Carmen blush pink wedding invitations feature the classic shade with a brighter orange font. There is also a mix of serif and handwritten-looking fonts that give it that modern edge.
-
Boho pink wedding invitations: We love the soft pink wedding invitation background on the Jewel design. The super natural floral arrangement and deckle edge envelope all contribute to the boho aesthetic too. This is one way to go with more subtle blush pink wedding invitations, as it is a more muted version of the shade underneath a deeper red invite card.
-
Pink wedding invitation background: Just like the boho pink wedding invitation example, the Lewis design focuses on the background. The textured pink wedding invitation background is the best possible backdrop that also complements the metallic and rustic elements of the template.
Whether you are interested in light or hot pink wedding invitations, we are certain you will find “the one” after some research. Consider your other design decisions, which will inevitably help you figure out if everything else will go with your pink wedding invitation.
Matching Your Pink Wedding Invitations to the Rest of Your Stationery
As you set out on designing your own pink wedding invitations, we encourage you to shop by collection. For example, if you love the idea of hot pink wedding invitations, you will likely want to find templates for wedding websites and Save the Dates that coordinate with it. For instance, the Luna collection has hot pink wedding invitations, Save the Dates and more.
Seeking out a collection that fits your style is the best way to easily and efficiently create a set of cohesive stationery. Guests will identify every invite as yours, especially if it is clearly matching or coordinating.
In addition to pink wedding invitations, wedding websites and Save the Dates, there are also rehearsal dinner invites and wedding menus available. By keeping everything consistent, you can take the guesswork out of so much of your design process.
