Tags tags and more tags




TAG: label, a small piece of cloth, paper, plastic, or other material attached to something as a label or means of identification.

We love those cute, colorful and stylish tags. Many of our pocket fold invitations are sealed closed while showcasing a tag. Tags have monograms, quotes, images, wedding dates, names and/or a combination of a few things. Wedding invitation tags can match the inside colors of the invitation with multiple layers of paper and are either attached right to the invite or attached to a ribbon. If they are not on a pocket fold invitation then they are on a thread of ribbon or hemp hanging on eagerly for your guests to read them. 

There are endless ways to display your invitation tag. Here are some examples of how we went above and beyond the regular tag...

PERSONALIZED GUEST TAGS

For this bride and groom's Broadway themed wedding they wanted to omit the inner envelope but still personalize who was receiving each invitation. We suggested printing each guest's name, on an individual tag in lieu of an inner envelope. What a fabulous idea for this knockout invitation we call Ticket to Broadway.



IMAGED MONOGRAM TAGS

Just add an image or theme you've used on your invitation to a simple monogram and date and presto... you have a simple yet bold tag. Below is the tag used on our "Anchored in Love" wedding  invitation. The anchor was used throughout this invitation set displaying it on the top of each enclosure card and invite itself.





Simple Monogram Tags

Names, date, images are sometimes not needed. A simple classic "H&E" may be all you need. These small tags were adhered to a hemp rope which wrapped around one of our handmade paper pocket fold invitations which we've named, Endless Summer. We also implemented the same monogram to a larger tag placed on their matching "matchbook style" programs.




Custom Designed Tags

If you want us to design an image for you - NO PROBLEM! And then, you'd like a tag made out of that same image...DUNZO! Check out the waves...just imagine it and it can be created, and then made into a tag of course:)





Picture Tags

If you want to incorporate a photo into your wedding invitations without all of the overkill, why not simply include it as a tag like the following couple did. This couple had a caricature drawn of the two of them including sunflowers, which was another important element in their wedding design. Since they had a destination wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, we cut the silver shimmer backing paper into a custom shaped luggage tag and then OLÉ!





Information/Special Message Tags

Tags can also be used for giving your guests information. On our "Please Recycle" invitation there are two tags on the back of this Earth Friendly invite. The first tag is made of plantable paper and the second tag is the information and directions about planting the paper for their guests. Not only does this tag give a little back to Mother Nature, but also sets the tone for their Green Wedding to come!
