How significant is your son’s first communion to your family? Very significant is most probably the answer. The invitations for the event are what will make a great start to your communion preparations. There are the many usual niceties such as having sweet and inspiring phrases and of course photos that are used by many people in their boys first communion invitations so that they look great.

In order to differentiate your child’s communion invitations from others’, you should be taking care of the other little details that most people leave out. These details are mostly never directly noticed by people, but they do make a subconscious impact in the back of their minds. They make the invitations much more attractive and well inviting. Let us see some such factors that come into play.

Firstly, let us concentrate on the color. Of course, we know that you are supposed to have a plain white color as the background with some lavender shades thrown in at the corners. Although this is the convention, you could go for a different color combination. Eliminate the white completely if you want. You shouldn’t always rely on the printing services to choose the best color for you.

So instead of taking the usual route, why don’t we try to change things a bit? We could jazz up the invitation and the feel of it. In the process you are also creating some excitement about the whole event. Why not invert the trend and go for another color as the main thing and put some white shading at the borders? I know it sounds somewhat odd, but be a bit bold and don’t skip these ideas.

Theming is the next idea on the list for boys first communion invitations. In most cases, people prefer to have a soft theme which highlights that the event is religious in nature and it is quite right. However, you can get the theme to have a lighter mood by making the colors just a bit brighter, but not by much. Whether your chosen color is violet, blue or anything else, let it be more colorful.

When it comes to invitations, you are no doubt considering embedding photos, a fairly popular practice. Even though this is a new trend most everyone will always print out the traditional photo on the invitation, which has a black tuxedo and the white shirt. You on the other hand, can try something away from the trend like a tuxedo which is navy blue in color, even if just for the sake of experiment.

I am not saying that you should definitely be different, but don’t be afraid of trying different kinds of dress of the formal kind. Instead of a white shirt, maybe your boy looks much better and smarter in a dark purple dress and a tie color to match.

I again stress that it is the details in your boys first communion invitations that make an unmistakable difference. The beauty of the invitation and also your choices show in how much you try to perfect the small things and it is also what compels people to come to your child’s invitations.
