When you’re picking out your wedding invitation, you have two options – either pick a standard design from any shop and copy paste some generic wordings, OR you can spend some time finding a design you LOVE and carefully craft the wordings to create a special impact when your guests open the invitation.

We prefer the second option. Of course, it’s harder to implement, which is why we’ve created the Ultimate Wedding Invite Guide for you. As part of this guide, here’s a curation of the best Indian wedding card designs we’ve EVER seen! From beautiful watercolours to gorgeous florals, this is where all your wedding stationary dreams come true. Scroll and pin, brides. Scroll. And. PIN!
