The CUTEST Tea Party Themed Bridal Shower Invites + So Much More From Basic Invite

As some of you may know, I am currently a bride-to-be AND I have been a bridesmaid more times than Katherine Heigl in 27 Dresses! So I know a thing or two about planning a bridal shower. So partnering with Basic Invite on their absolutely adorable tea party themed bridal shower invites (and their other awesome wedding-related services!) was a no-brainer!

First of all, move over Minted, because this site’s motto stole my heart:

Really speakin’ my language over here!

I know from experience: It’s not just the brides who shell out major cash during the whole wedding planning process. The wedding party does, too! Especially if you’re the maid of honor (or dishonor, depending on how much champagne you end up drinking throughout the process—I kid, I kid). But for real, between the bridesmaid dresses, destination bachelorette parties, and decorations, anything offering lower prices without sacrificing quality makes you look good, and your bank account look even better.

So what’s a frugal but trendy maid of honor to do when it comes to the bridal shower invites? That’s where Basic Invite steps in and saves the day!

The tea party theme for bridal showers is #trending right now, and that’s because it’s totally adorable—and a lot easier than having everyone sit down for a full meal in the middle of the afternoon (awkward timing for a buffet right?). For this type of shower the idea is light fare, focus on the bride, and definitely adorable/instagram-able tea party decor (and outfits to match!).

Basic Invite is totally on trend and gets that the invites gotta be on par/prepare your guests for the cuteness overload that will ensue at the shower. Their tea party bridal shower invitations are beyond adorable and 100% customizable.

These are all ones I totally customized myself! (I used my sister’s maiden name as an example, sorry Annie!)

I meeean how cute are these?! They let me customize my own, and I got to play around with all the colors and have it say whatever I wanted. It was SO easy, and the color selection blew me away. I had so much fun customizing ones for my sister, I might just have to throw her a tea party bridal shower, two years into her marriage! For real though they turned out so cute, and the prices are so much better than any of the bigger name sites.

They do so much more than just tea party themed bridal invitations—seriously if you have a party coming up, you should definitely considering using this site to invite your friends! They even throw in FREE address collecting and printing!

For my fellow brides, I cannot stress enough how key this site is for your actual wedding invitations. They’re going to save you SO much money, but beyond that, you’ll get great quality and ordering/customizing them was a BREEZE (which tends to not be the case on other sites). Like, it literally took me weeks to customize my wedding invites on the site I ended up using because it was sooo confusing, and the design was so inflexible. Not the case here at all!

How classy and gorgeous is this wedding invite???

They literally have something for everyone’s tastes and every trend—they have clear invites, seal and send invites, and over 180 colors you can use to easily customize the invites, and even 40 different color options for the envelopes! Mind. Blown.

The environmentally-friendly and oh so efficient seal and send invites!

Another awesome feature is their FREE wedding websites you can use! AND you can even match your wedding website theme to match everything in your wedding suite: invites, thank you cards, wedding day signage and decor, you name it! You guys, maintaining a theme is so important when you’re a bride in full-on planning mode! I did not realize this until I became obsessed with mine (rustic, geometric and greenery)! I know, how do I manage to geek out on something not geeky at all? It’s a gift.

But for real, people stalk your wedding website for all the valuable information (location/time/registry/the “how did you meet this guy again?” story, etc.), so if you’re newly engaged and in the market for wedding couples websites, look no further! Basic Invite has got ya covered there, too.

Such classy and clean designs!
