Note: all of the cards below can be found in the “Wedding” template category in the app. Simply tap Templates when you open the app, and look for the category to start creating.

Trendy Bold Colors

If you’re looking for something that takes center stage, why not try Pantone’s color for 2023 – Viva Magenta? It’s vibrant and modern, yet powerful and worthy of celebration. Starting with this color scheme will surely add bold touch to your wedding collage. 

For a quick and easy card, you can simply drop your photos in one of our beautiful templates found in this color. If you have more time and are up for a creative challenge, you can start with freestyle. For the example on the right, we used Web Image from the bottom menu to search for “Viva Magenta” and added it as an image to the editor. We then used Cutout and made our very own freeform-shaped stickers. As a finishing touch, we added gold text and stickers to give it an elegant look.

Glitz and Glam 

If you’re into all things sparkly and glamorous, the “Bridal Glitz” sticker and background packs are perfect for you. For a card to highlight the couple, you can use Cutout to put a spotlight on the bride and groom in your card. We also added glittery ‘Mr and Mrs’ stickers to give it an extra flair and used an additional sticker pack (“Pearlcore” stickers) to decorate the edges of the collage. For a simple card where the photos are the star, you can simply choose a complex design from the “Bridal Glitz” background pack to help make the photos pop. These glam designs works well with any type of photos!

Soft Florals

For a romantic and delicate aesthetic, try going with soft florals. You can find an array of options to choose from in our “Wedding” template category. These templates feature an extensive range of soft pastel shades – from blush pink to tones of soft yellow and cream – making it easy to find the perfect style to suit everyone’s fancy.  To give it an extra personal touch, you can always add handwritten-style texts to each template to complement your designs.

Simple and Elegant

Not into bold or pastel colors? You can go with a classic and elegant look that never goes out of style. In the app you’ll find several sleek and sophisticated cards that are perfect to highlight the celebration of a wedding day. These designs focus on minimalist elements like simple backgrounds, beautifully paired fonts, and clean layouts. You can also begin by building a collage with grids, add in a single color backdrop, and embellish with silver stickers from our “Wedding Chalk Lettering” sticker pack. 

Art Deco

If you’re a fan of the Roaring Twenties, bring some vintage glamour to your wedding collage with Art Deco designs. Opt for geometric shapes, gold accent frames, and bold typography. Our pre-made templates have a few with an Art Deco feel, but you can also search our “Special Day” background pack to find vintage and retro backdrops. Experiment with handwritten text and photo borders for a timeless feel.

No matter what style you choose, creating a collage is a beautiful way to document and celebrate all the special moments that make up a wedding day. Use these tips and templates as inspiration, and don’t hesitate to get creative and make something unique to you and your loved ones. What style will you use to showcase a wedding celebration? Share your creations on social media and tag @piccollage to show us what you made! We love seeing what you come up with. 

The post 5 Card Styles to Celebrate Wedding Season appeared first on PicCollage Blog.

For this blog post, we sat down with team member Amelia and she shared some of the things she’s learned so far as a 2023 Bride – as well as her top tips for using PicCollage to create beautiful wedding stationery. Scroll down to read her recommendations!

Photos can be foundation of a fantastic invite!

“We took a whole bunch of engagement photos before I started designing my Save the Dates – not only was it a super fun day, but one of my favorite photos became the centrepiece of the invite. I used the Cutout tool in our app to make our portrait really pop in front of the text – and I’ve had so many compliments on the result!”

Don’t overthink it

“I spent ages trying to design the bridesmaid card for my ‘bridesmaids-to-be’ – I wanted it to be perfect! But PicCollage is full of gorgeous, ready-to-go invites and in the end I fell in love with this one. This design is just so on-trend and colorful – everybody loved it!”

Narrow down your theme

“At first I was a bit overwhelmed browsing through backgrounds and stickers on the app – there’s so many to choose from! But once I had worked out that wildflowers were going to be a big part of my wedding, that really helped me narrow down my choices. 

I love this “Dried Flower Scrapbook” background pack paired with the “Bright Wedding” sticker pack, and I used it to share my engagement photos with friends and family!”

We hope Amelia’s tips have helped inspire you if you’re starting to craft your own wedding stationery set! Stay tuned to our instagram for more interviews and top tips in the coming months.

Stickers

Adding stickers to your collage is a simple way to take your design to the next level. Try the “Celestial Wedding” sticker pack to create a dreamy, romantic look.

Our “Pearlcore” stickers are great for a fun, but formal vibe.

Backgrounds

There are a few ways to use our many wedding themed backgrounds. The first way is to use the “Grids” feature to populate your collage with some photos you love. (These can be from an engagement photo shoot, a bridal shower, or even the wedding itself!) Then, choose a subtle background that ties in the colors of the photos for a pretty and polished final product.

If you really want the background to be the focus of you collage, you can choose something that really pops, and just add one or two stunning photos as the focal point(s). Here are some background packs that we’re loving: 

Templates

From a wedding photo dump to a bridal shower to a bachelorette party, we’ve got you covered! We have so many beautiful designs in the “Wedding” template category that you can use to create fun invites or collages to remember all the fun matrimonial events!

Fonts

Fonts play a huge role in the look and feel of your collage. For weddings, we love a sophisticated script. Pair it with a formal serif font for a gorgeous design that looks like it was done by a pro!

Whatever you need when it comes to creating wedding invites, social posts, or save the dates, PicCollage has you covered. Head to the app to check out all of our favorite stickers, backgrounds, and templates to help you design content you love. Be sure to follow along on social at @piccollage for tips, tricks, and first looks at new releases!

Earth Tone

We think earth tones are so elegant for weddings. If you’re going with a natural palette for your wedding, you’ll love our “Stay Cozy” backgrounds.  For the invite below, we used those backgrounds and our “Dark Florals” sticker pack for a subtle pop of color and texture.

Bold and Bright

If you’re more drawn to bright, happy hues, a bold wedding color palette is so fun. We absolutely love this VIP Template from our “Wedding” template category. It’s bold and bright with the perfect amount of elegance and whimsy!

Pantone Purple

2022 is the year for purple lovers! Pantone named “Very Peri” its color of the year, so it’s no surprise that many people are gravitating towards this beautiful hue. This free template from our wedding category is simple, stunning, and perfect for purple wedding palettes.

Say Yes to Yellow

Here comes the sun! As we head into the warmer months, a not-so-mellow yellow color palette is the perfect way to get guests in the mood for summery celebrations. This VIP template from our “Wedding” template category is bold and beautifully designed.

Modern Black

For a black tie affair, you can’t go wrong with a modern black and gold color scheme. Up the elegance with black backgrounds, classic fonts, and sophisticated graphic elements in gold, like the “Gold Florals” stickers used in the invite below.

There are few celebrations in life more exciting than a wedding! Make it completely your own with personalized invites and save the dates that match your color palette perfectly. Follow along on social at @piccollage for more wedding inspo!

Invites

Your wedding invite helps to set the tone for the whole affair! We’ve added lots of beautiful new Save The Date and wedding invite templates to the “Wedding” category to help you get just the look that you’re going for!

Change the Date

We get it – life happens and sometimes you need to change the date you originally set for your celebration. While having to change the date can be a bummer, your announcement doesn’t have to be! We’ve added new “Change The Date” templates in the “Wedding” category that will help you stylishly spread the word, while letting people know how excited you still are to celebrate with them in the future!

Bridal Shower

It’s not just the wedding that needs an invite! Bridal showers are also the perfect opportunity to create a beautiful invitation to celebrate the bride-to-be with her closest friends and family. These designs are available as editable templates in our “Wedding” category.

Wedding Checklist

You have tons to plan on your big day and keeping it all straight can be a little overwhelming. Create a beautiful planner that will help you stay organized as you check things off your list. Bonus: it’s way more fun to look at than an Excel spreadsheet! Find this new template in the “Wedding” category.

Guest List

You’ll need to keep track of the guest list and make sure you have important contact information close at hand! This beautiful VIP template in the “Wedding” template category is the perfect way to stay organized as you start sending out invites.

Table Cards

You’ve taken care of the flowers, the food, and the playlist. But you forgot about the table cards! Don’t sweat it, we’ve got beautiful templates available in the “Wedding” category in the app (right) or you can flex your creative muscles and create something from scratch (left)! Either way, you’re sure to end up with a stunning addition to the tables.

Here’s what we used for the table card made from scratch:

• Canvas size: 3:2
• Background: “Holiday Textures”
• Stickers: “Spring Flowers”
• Fonts: “Gabriela” and “Kaylar Script”

Congratulations on your big day! Don’t forget to tag us at @piccollage and use #mypiccollage to share your creative wedding content!

We’ve got tons of beautiful premium templates in our VIP subscription this year for celebrating weddings and anniversaries. Here’s a little tour through what they look like filled with photos for inspiration of ways you can still celebrate digitally. When you can’t be with your loved ones, these designs help give virtual celebrations and announcements a special touch.

Announcements

Virtual Celebrations

These templates help you send well wishes to couples when you can’t celebrate with them in person. 

We’ve filled this congratulations template with some classic wedding-day vignettes, but we also think it looks just as cute as a collection of your favorite memories of the couple before their big day! 

Anniversary Cards

If you’re celebrating an anniversary, we have beautiful cards to compliment your favorite bridal portrait from the big day. Add a personal touch by adding your anniversary date!

You can also get creative with the photo slots. In this template, we made a grid collage first and added it as an image.

Here are some more options we love!

Check out the Wedding and Anniversary categories in the app to see all of the templates available. We hope they help you make something special for your virtual celebrations!
