Muslim Wedding Cards





Muslim Wedding Cards

Muslim wedding cards are sent out to inform invitees of the 'Nikaah', the wedding ceremony. Invitations are sent out to announce the ceremony to the rest of the world. Although in prosaic terms it may be argued that the wedding invite is simply a means of announcing the names of the bride and groom (along with their lineage), the venue and time of the Nikaah, in real terms, the wedding invite does much more than that.
Muslim wedding cards are quite traditional. One can find typical colors and designs on these wedding cards. In keeping with the religious significance, green is a recurring color. Other popular colors used in Muslim marriage cards include cream, gold and red. Red is an auspicious color as it represents fertility as befitting a marriage. Red on the cards is a reflection of the red of the 'Mehndi' design on the palms of the bride.
