Create Wedding Invitations Online

Things You'll Need
* Wedding details: who, what, when, where and why
* Electronic version of photo of the couple
* Access to self-publishing site

No matter what your wedding theme is, the primary focus of the wedding and the invitation is the couple themselves. You can create professional looking wedding invitations online with a photo of the couple as the main focal point of the invitation. Using a self-publishing site and your favorite photo can be a fun and cost effective way to create your wedding invitations online.

Step 1. Choose a self-publishing site. There are numerous Websites (i.e., Picaboo, Kodak, Snapfish) that allow you to upload your photos and turn them into invitations. Before you start working on your invitation online, log into or create an account so you can save your work online while you finish the creation.
Step 2. Pick the invitation style. The online publishing sites allow you to customize the look of your invitation by choosing a flat or foldover card style. You can then upload the photo you want to use on the front of the invitation, choose the border or design style to match your wedding.

Step 3. Choose photo paper. Pick the type of paper you want your wedding invitations to be printed. Since you're using a photo, you have the choice of glossy or matte style photo paper.
Step 4. Add text. Add text to the front of the invitation as the layout permits. This can include your name and the wedding date.

Step 5. Design the back or inside. Move to the back of a flat invitation or the inside right panel of a foldover card by "flipping" or scrolling. Upload photos and add the wedding verse, including personal information (who, what, when, where and why) as allowed by the invitation design layout you've chosen.
Step 6. Choose quantity. Choose how many photo wedding invitations you need to print and submit your order online.
