Your engagement party is your opportunity to let your hair down and celebrate with friends and family. You finally put a ring on it, and exciting changes are coming in your life. But first? You party!
We have engagement invitations for any kind of engagement party, whether you’re having a casual backyard barbecue, a full formal sit-down dinner, or something in between. We also have all the extra cards you might need for your engagement party, including save the dates to make sure everyone has enough notice to be able to attend, RSVP cards to keep track of who is attending and who can’t make it, and thank you cards to make sure you can thank everyone properly after the fact.
At Paperlust, we have designers creating engagement invitations Australia wide. When you buy from us, you are supporting independent Australian designers and the Australian creative industry as a whole. That’s great news for people who care about design and who think Australians have something special to offer.
Our engagement invitations come in a range of colours and styles, and in a variety of print types including letterpress, digital print, real foil, raised foil, metallic ink and white ink.
Looking for a uniquely Australian design? We have engagement party invitations Australia themed for people looking for a touch of Australiana, including things like native plants and botanical prints. You might be Australians abroad and looking for a touch of home, or international visitors celebrating your engagement in Australia and wanting to embrace the local beauty.
Choosing engagement invitations Australia
When choosing your engagement party invitations, you need to consider a number of factors. Some of the most important are:
-
Budget - how much can you afford to spend on invites? This will affect the print type you choose: digital print is much cheaper than something like real foil or letterpress.
-
Style of your event - is your engagement party casual or formal?
-
Theme of your event - does your engagement party have a particular theme? Popular themes might include a pattern theme (stripes, polka dots), speakeasy, carnival themed or similar. Others draw inspiration from places they have travelled or their hobbies.
-
Colour palette - what colour palette are you planning to use for your engagement party decor? Perhaps you are keeping things black and white, using one colour in various shades, or using a combination of colours (e.g. navy and gold, or mint and blush).
Once you’ve chosen the right design for you, it’s time to think about what you want to say.
Wording your engagement party invitations Australia
Your engagement party invitations need to include all the information your guests will require to be able to attend the engagement party. You should make sure to tell them:
-
The name/s of who is being invited (e.g. ‘Dear Emma’, or ‘Dear Jones family’)
-
Your name and your partner’s name
-
The fact that it is an engagement party (don’t let them mistake an engagement invitation for a wedding invitation!)
-
The date of your engagement party
-
The time of your engagement party
-
The venue name and address
-
An RSVP day and all the details required for them to RSVP (usually an email address or phone number, and the name of the contact person. Could also be an addressed RSVP card or a link to an event website)
-
Any gift arrangements (e.g. ‘No need for gifts’, ‘if you wish to bring a gift, please consider contributing to our wishing well’, ‘we have a gift registry at David Jones for anyone looking for gift ideas’, ‘please consider making a donation to the Red Cross in lieu of a gift’)
-
Dress code, if applicable. You might also want to indicate a theme and any other information that might be interested.
Once you’ve chosen your perfect design and filled out all the necessary information, you can order your engagement invitations australia wide and have them in your hands in no time. Then you can get planning the rest of your engagement party, to celebrate in style with friends and family!
