An Indian wedding is a special time that forever joins the souls of two people in love. Just as they are in many other regions of the world, Indian weddings can be very elaborate, from the announcement of the couple’s engagement and the invitations for the ceremony to the couple’s dress and reception. If you’re in the early planning stages of an Indian wedding, you’ll need to do some research before you begin setting in place all the components of the ceremony. Many brides today prefer using Silk invitation boxes as an important part of the overall wedding invitation.
Making a silk invitation box part of your entire wedding invitation presentation adds an element of style that an envelope just can’t match. The variety of colors available to be used in the boxes is almost limitless. For example, you might want to choose a siena blue or royal purple box incorporating a gate-fold design, with the invitation placed in the middle of the box and extra information, such as an RSVP card and additional information in the side pockets. The entire invitation is closed with a satin ribbon and embellished with a crystals.
Another, more modern-looking option is an acrylic and silk box in several different colors, including black, red and gold. The box itself includes engraving, a space in which to insert invitations and an optional tray in a complementary color. If you truly want your invitation to stand out, consider purchasing a Giza invitation box. This box is shaped like a pyramid with an intricate laser cut design. Your invitation and related materials are printed on the solid triangular sides of the pyramid and slipped behind the laser design.
The fabrics used in Silk Invitation Boxes can range from expensive Thai silk to more affordable Dupioni, or raw silk. No matter what kind of budget you as the bride and your family have for your wedding, silk invitation boxes can be a memorable part of the day. Family and other guests who want to preserve your wedding invitation for many years will appreciate this special memento of your day. Whether you want to give these boxes to your entire guest list or for just a few special people, you can find a box that will fit your budget.
