Your save the dates and wedding invitations are the first glimpse your guests will have of your beautiful Catholic wedding day. If you're looking to evangelize through beauty as you prepare for this glorious sacrament, this is for you!
If you delight in Catholic symbolism and love weaving intentional Catholic details throughout your style, this post is also for you.
Here are four ways to let the Catholic faith shine before your guests even arrive at your wedding:
-
Use elegant wax seals with gorgeous Catholic details to let the beauty of the Catholic faith shine before your guests even open their envelopes. Think: the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a beautiful Marian crest adorned with roses and lilies, and Our Lady Star of the Sea.
-
Skip generic online vendors and work with a devout Catholic invitation designer and small business to create fully custom wedding invitations that reflect what's most important to you—sharing the beauty and richness of our faith.
-
Include engagement prayer cards so you can invite your guests to pray for you as you prepare for a strong, holy, and fruitful Catholic marriage. I absolutely love seeing couples include these, and it’s a joy to create them.
-
Incorporate sacred art in your envelope liners, such as a detail of Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam or an original illustration of your church.
Your wedding day is not just a celebration but a profound sacrament, and these beautiful Catholic details can help set the tone for that sacred moment. Let your invitations serve as both a reflection of your personal style and an invitation to share the deeper meaning of your Catholic faith with those you love.
