Sikh
weddings are the perfect epitome of the lavish, beautiful and
traditional culture of North India. This is the reason why it is only
fitting to find the best Indian wedding invitations that will
complement such a special occasion. Before you send out your marriage
invitation card to your guests, you have to make sure that it
exudes the same level of fervor you feel for your upcoming wedding.
While it is easy to fall back into the use of traditional
wedding cards, it has now become a norm for modern couples to
choose contemporary wedding
invitations that are in harmony with their wedding.
Whether
you opt for a modern invitation or you still prefer a traditional
one, there are several important things you have to look into before
you finalize the printing of your Sikh
wedding card.
Consider
Designs, Motifs, and Logos
The
traditional Sikh symbols
are believed to bring a fortune to every wedding. Aside from that,
these symbols further enhance the card’s beauty and appeal. You can
select from the typical Sikh motifs like the Khalsa,
Waheguru and Ik Onkar motifs which are surely going to lend an
exclusive unique Sikh feel for your
Anand Karaj.
If
you prefer motifs that are more mutual which still exude a
traditional essence, you can go for folk symbols such as images of
Dulhan, Varghodas and the
more modern images like flowers and hearts.
Pick
the Right Color
Just
like the rest of the best
Indian wedding invitations, the Sikh cards boast of a vibrant
display of colors like red and yellow, together with embellishments
and contour lines in gold. In case you like subtle colors and you
wish for a card that looks elegant and regal, you can choose designs
in gold and off white with natural Sikh motifs.
Be
Careful with the Words
It
doesn’t matter if you opt for laser
cut invitation cards or something traditional because among the
most essential aspects of your card is how you word them. You would
want to express how special this event is for you and at the same
time, you want every guest to feel how much you welcome and
appreciate the fact that they will be a part of your big day to
shower their blessings on you.
The
wordings can start on top with a couplet or phrase from Guru
Granth Sahib. You can follow this up with lines or quotes from
poems you like or those you feel best represent your emotions. It can
be followed by the introduction of the groom and bride and their
parents. The rest of the wordings can then include details of the
wedding ceremony, venue, date address and RSVP section which all need
to be written as clear as possible.
Check
and Proofread
Finally,
before you place a bulk order for the stationery and design you
chose, see to it that you request for a sample to have an idea on how
the final product will look and make the necessary corrections or
last minute changes, if any.
Just
like that, you are now ready to distribute your marriage
invitation cards!
