Tue, 23 Nov 2010 06:23:18 +0000

India is a land of great diversity, it is full of colors. A multitude of religions exist under the Indian sky, they all have unique ceremonies and rituals associated with them. Wedding is one of the most important events of an individual, as well as a family’s life. For Indians, wedding is extremely special. They celebrate it with great pomp and show. Most Indians try to make their wedding the most memorable event of their lives. They aim to make everything associated with the wedding special.

Wedding invitations form an important part of every wedding. People try to have wedding cards that are beautiful, creatively designed and one of a kind. Married couples preserve their wedding cards, so that they can refer to them in future and experience the nostalgia of their wedding.

Every religion has some unique features associated with wedding cards. The cards are different depending upon the region as well, for example a north Indian’s wedding invitation card would differ from that of a south Indian’s wedding card, or for that matter, the wedding card of a north easterner.

Indian wedding invitation cards can be divided into the following categories:

Hindu Wedding Cards Muslim Wedding Cards Sikh Wedding Cards Scroll Wedding Invitations Multi-faith Wedding Invitations – Interfaith cards Designer Wedding Cards Non Religious wedding Cards and E-Wedding Cards

Indian wedding cards stand out prominently with their exquisite designing and intricate detailing. They offer a wonderful blend of style and artistry. They are filled with eye pleasing colors and distinctive textures. They are made on a variety of papers, from imported to hand made ones. Though earlier wedding invitation cards were solely made from paper, nowadays the card designers have been making creative use of a variety of materials to make the cards. Hindu wedding cards often come studded with Kundan stones.

Indian wedding cards also commonly feature quotes from the religious books, for example Hindu wedding cards, have quotations from the Bhagwad Gita, the Muslim wedding cards have quotes from Quran, while the Sikh wedding cards, carry quotes from the Guru Granth Sahib. These quotes are usually meant to bless the marrying couple with good wishes for their married life.

The variety in Indian wedding cards means that they are available in a very wide price range, from the extremely affordable ones to the exorbitantly priced ones. Those who can afford it, also get their cards designed from reputed artists and designers.

Weddings cards with gifts

Tue, 21 Sep 2010 07:27:04 +0000

Planning ahead is a wise decision especially when it involves marriages of a lifetime. Sometimes it is not the budget that decides the kind of card but other factors too. In Indian weddings as a sign of auspiciousness a wedding card is sent with sweets and a gift. The tradition continues but the gifts have become more global. So an urban wedding card is likely to be hand delivered with a bottle of bubbly and sparkling champagne or wine! But this happens in few weddings. But what has become trendier is giving gift wrapped chocolates with the wedding card beautifully placed in the hamper basket. For close families and friends the hamper also includes nutritious seasonal fruit platter.

Just like the extravaganza that accompanies the rituals for Indian weddings, even the cards reflect the mood of the occasion. With the help of the internet one can source some of the most unique ideas to compliment the bridal couple. The latest trends include bouquets of flowers. With many different kinds of flower arrangements the wedding card carries a lot more value. While the technical marvel of the wedding card with computer graphics, colors and symbols can be a little impersonal, one can make it all up with a gift that is very personal. The current trends in wedding cards design elements include personalised wordings inside. The outside is expressed with a mouth watering bitter chocolate box or traditional sweets wrapped very deliciously. While conceptualising the wedding card and accompanying gifts think of the theme that will also be used for the main event. Most people send the gifts and cards and fail to cross check whether they have received it. Call to confirm the receipt.

Other useful tips:

If the guest list is too long avoid giving gifts to all. It will increase the budget. Stick to the most important guests to shower the gift. The cost of both will add to the expenditure. Bear in mind also the courier and delivery charges that will add up the charges. The more the people, additional will be the expenditure. Avoid sending gifts that will be useless to the guests. For example there is no need to send sweets to a diabetic guest. Chose a nice bunch of flowers instead. Mix and match gifts with the cards for different guests. They will be very pleased to know you care.

How can I design and word my new business card?

Sun, 23 May 2010 07:00:35 +0000

I have several different job areas and would like to incorporate them into one card instead of many.
This is what I came up with:

(Design Details…
From my upside-down
town )

(I put the details in
the design)

(a picture,side view of a ladies forehead,cheek and eye.It looks great.and it goes on the right also.)
email
phone
fax
Owner-Sharon Cline-This goes on the right
Watauga,Texas

This is what I do for a living
1.I design and make wedding cakes-over 5000 so far
2.I design and sell hand-painted glass and paintings
3.I faux paint walls or objects for clients,as well as create mosaiics on walls,tables mirrors,etc.
4 I have designed many events and parties for people
I love to do all of these things but here is how the confusion started.
I was a wedding cake designer,in different conversations I was asked to plan events or come up with themes(because I throw a lot of themed parties)Then I had my art in a gallery,When people visit my office,they would see the mosaiics and faux walls.Brides started making their own cakes again because of the economy,so in order to make a paycheck I do all of the above.I also rented a booth in a beautiful and unique Antique Mall.I built a room about 6′ by 10′.I put a small table, open purse ,magizines,pillows,wine bottle,glass etc…Too many things to mention.So I hung it upside-down along w/a sign that says “Welcome to my upside-down town,loitering wanted,speed limit 53.
Some people have said to choose just one job.There’s not enough demand right now to do that.
So,I need this card and on the back my bullet points of what I do.Please help me with the wording for the back or front.I’m looking forward to reading your answers.Thank you for reading my question.
