Wedding invitation cards are considered to be a vital part of any wedding. After all, they seem to mark the start of the planning. But you can put a twist to that and make things a lot more fun by turning playing cards into wedding favors. You can actually find more use for these playing cards than just as invitations or for adding some fun factor to the special day. The play card wedding favors can also be used as memoirs of the day, and the best part is they are actual favor items that family and friends can use in the future. The playing cards should contain the different elements of the wedding. The date of the wedding would be indicated, along with the names of the newlyweds and maybe a symbolic design or detail.

You should choose durable materials, whether you decide to print the cards or write them by hand. You can get quality paper from a book store, which should have a good imprint and can be with some graphic designs thought not so shouting ones. They would make for perfect playing card wedding favors. Handwritten cards are always a great addition and hold a rich sense of devotion into the detailing. You can even make use of fabrics and wood in making these playing cards, which will turn out to be a lot of fun.

Next, you have to consider the color and the print that will be used. Here you can consider giving the cards a theme that slightly drifts away from, yet complimenting that of the wedding. Conversely, you can stick to the wedding theme to come up with the colors for the cards. You could either go for light colors or darker tones. Next, you will consider the size of the cards and the corresponding amount of print. Even the graphics that will be printed on the cards would also have to be noted. If the themes are light in color, you should use dark color in the prints. If the theme is dark colored, use light color in the printing.

If you want to add a bit more fun and spice in the playing cards, you should consider adding special graphic designs. Graphich designs could also bring out more of the favors that you want added in the cards. You could also go the cryptic way and use the prints, photos, and graphic designs to make the person or card holder think about what it means.

The next step will be the figure out the kind of shape or shapes and size of the playing cards. Invitation cards are also now included in gift bags that are given by wedding planners to those who are invited to the wedding. You can take this chance to add some of the playing cards to the bags. Still, it would be best if you simply place the playing card wedding favors on the tables. If there are settings and seating arrangements fixed prior, the attendants could simple take their cues from them as they usher in the guests.
