Wedding season is upon us, and that means it's time to start thinking about those all-important wedding invitations. But forget the traditional, stuffy invites of yesteryear - it's all about embracing the latest wedding invitation trends to make your big day truly unforgettable! We've been paying attention to the hottest trends and most requested looks going into 2024.
1. QR Codes
QR codes aren't just fun to look at, they are super helpful when it comes to requesting responses from you guests! Gone are the days of waiting for mail back replies. Your guests can easily scan and reply directly from your invitations! All you need is a wedding website that accepts responses! At TIPC, QR code creation is always free!

2. Letterpress
This timeless method of printing will always invoke swoons! Letterpress printing involves pressing inked letters or images into paper. This type of printing has been around since the 1400's and still has not lost it's appeal. Letterpress typically uses thick cotton paper. If you'd like to learn more about this process, we highly recommend this article by Oh So Beautiful Paper. This style can be pricey, but its always worth it!

Images of nature are popping up everywhere from invitations to signage and we love this idea of using natural landscape as a wedding theme!
