Ethnic wedding invitations make a beautiful way of expressing one’s belonging to a certain culture; it is a tradition integrative pattern that can be followed while preserving symbols, themes and even customs specific to the biggest life moments. Celtic wedding invitations enjoy a great popularity not only among people with a family Celtic heritage but among many other couples who are simply fascinated by what the Celtic culture has to offer. Wooden designs and knots make the fundamental forms of design for Celtic wedding invitations; yet, style variations certainly cannot stop here, because you can truly let your imagination be creative.
Symbolism is at the heart of Celtic wedding invitations, and the patterns are usually presented in an intricate form. Scottish and Irish families will often marry in highland castles and therefore will prefer sticking to their Celtic tradition and go through all the ritual according to ancestral beliefs, laws and customs. Hence, there is no better way to get creative than to try and invent new designs not only for the Celtic wedding invitations but for the flower arrangements, the table linen and the rest of the dress details.
Few people know for instance that the bride’s bouquet carrying is a tradition with Celtic origins. The herbs in the bouquet were believed to cast away evil spirits and to make the bride look more elegant. Even the way the wedding ring is worn has a Celtic origin because the Celts believed that the third finger of the left hand is directly linked with the heart through the veins. We can go on with the comparison and the number of similarities a lot further than the use of Celtic wedding invitations. If you want to relate back to tradition, there is hardly a better way to do so.
One important aspect of Celtic wedding invitations is graphics as they can add to the spiritual symbolism as well as emphasize the various patterns you choose to include in the design. Flowers and animal parts, symmetrical knots, monograms with the couple’s initials, swirls and flowing lines: these make the cornerstones of Celtic wedding invitations. Special paper is available in stationaries when you decide to have the invitations made at home, and you can choose some very nice Celtic borders. Planning the Celtic wedding will in fact carry you deeper into Celtic decorations and their symbolism, which will eventually bring a specific unique atmosphere to enjoy on the big day. Congratulations!
