How to DIY Bridal Shower Invitations on The Knot

Once you've settled on a bridal shower venue (which you can easily find via The Knot Vendor Marketplace), it's time to tell people when and where the celebration is taking place. The Knot Invitations has some of the best bridal shower invitations because not only do you get plenty of unique designs and cost-effective options, but customizing your stationery has never been easier. (Psst. The Knot takes care of all the printing and you don't have to worry about addressing every invitation since we offer recipient and return address services.) Below is how you edit your invites in just a few simple steps:

  • Select your desired bridal shower invitation. Once you do this, choose your design color, paper type and quantity needed.
  • Click on the "Personalize" button. You'll be taken to a page where you can edit the invitation's text, add shapes, images and a QR code, change the font's color and size.
  • Choose which side of the invitation you want to work on. Both the front and the back of the invitation can be customized so feel free to edit as much as you like.

Pick between charcoal, fog, slate and bordeaux tones to set the mood for guests before the event even happens. Our favorite part of the invitation is the vertical celebratory phrase written on the left side of the card, which you can change to anything you want by the way.
