Western Wedding Invitation Ideas by Naptime Productions

The old adage: 'something old, something new' has come full circle. In the world of weddings, there has been a marked resurgence in weddings returning to more traditional, elegant styles as opposed to contemporary, modern styles. Traditional styles like Western-themed weddings are growing in popularity, and if you're planning on gettin' hitched, there are a few things you need to consider before you two-step down the aisle.

If you plan to take the proverbial plunge and want to have a Western-themed wedding, there are more than just decorations and attire to plan. To have a top-notch Western wedding, you will want your theme to be reflected in your location, food, transportation (horseback or carriage?) as well as your invitations.

For more formal weddings, ivory, cream, or neutral color invitations with white or cream overlays including Western motifs can be beautiful and elegant ways to invite your guests. Further, Western-themed wedding invitations don't have to employ cliche' images such as lassos, cowboy boots or bull horns--they can be sophisticated too. For a more modern look, choose a current style invitation with western touches, such as Naptime Productions "Western Initial" design is a clever mix of traditional icons and contemporary style. All you need is a vision to coincide with your theme to bring it to fruition. Consider the overall tone of your event -- is it going to be along the lines of the Wild, Wild West or is it more of a simple ranch-style look? Are you going to get married on a ranch or in a chapel in the country? How far do you want to go with the theme?
