Checkerboard is a Brand Too

If you take a look at some of the websites that offer checkerboard invitations you are likely to find there are a variety of color schemes and styles. Their patterns are not necessarily a checkerboard and certainly doesn't mean the invitations are going to be red and black. They offer many different elegant styles that may not be right for everyone's wedding, but some of their more flamboyant styles are perfect for a casual wedding or one that is rather colorful as may be the case in the fall and winter.

Look at all the Color Combinations

Before you make any kind of a decision about wedding invitations, look at the available color combinations to determine if the color schemes fit in with your theme and colors. Although a fall or winter wedding tends to lend way to darker colors you still want to make sure the colors you choose for your invitations fit in with your color scheme and will not detract from the real purpose of the wedding invitations, namely the bride and groom. If you choose colors that are too outlandish you may find that the guests will be paying more attention to the colors instead of the bride and groom.
