Arabic weddings are prone to be traditional and include weeks of events before the actual vows are taken. Sending out the invitation becomes a social issue rather than a personal choice. Here's what you need to know.
Traditional or Modern
While most weddings in the Arabic culture are traditional, the younger generation is opting for the inclusion of trendy and modern details. Today, the youth want an updated look and opt for designs that are more abstract and have less symbolism attached to them.
Use of Colors
Traditionally Arabic invitations are classic white, cream, brown and other such muted hues. Modern invitations, however, feature bold, eye-catching colors and designs. Couples choose their invitations based on their budgets, and some will even opt for handcrafted cards with handwritten calligraphy. The colors of the invitation usually matches the theme of the wedding and the chosen colors become the basis of the whole wedding.
