The choice of material is infinite, as are the styles: stapled or ribboned; scrolled, flat, or 3D; ready formatted, homemade, or professionally printed. Then there is the choice of calligraphy, eg Old English, Italics, Copper Plate, etc., the colour of the printing ink: gold, silver, or black being the usual choices, and font size. You may have to consider billingual invitations. As a norm what you choose reflects your personality and budget. Wedding Printing And Stationery
