You can choose to use a pretty pastel invitation and stop at that or you can continue adding other elements to make your stationery more springy. What other elements can you add? You can highlight holidays that occur close to your wedding, such as St. Patrick’s Day or Easter, and use shamrocks or Easter eggs on your invitations. Other popular designs would include spring flowers and butterflies.
