Get The Typography Right
When it comes to designing personalized invitations, typography plays a vital role. Just like color, different fonts evoke different emotions. For example, sans serif fonts exude an informal vibe, script fonts make your design elegant, and calligraphy fonts give off a personalized touch. In DocHipo Editor, you will find a wide range of font styles to include in your design.
Don’t use more than three different fonts in a single invitation design. Make sure that the fonts you choose are legible and your text is easily readable. To make it more simple, you can think of each font as a different voice. So, you know how loud you want your invitation to be. And too many different fonts can make your invitation too loud.

Keep Everything Aligned
The alignment of all the design elements is crucial in any design, especially in document types like invitations where you don’t use long paragraphs of copy. We recommend you center align most of your text so that the design doesn’t look off balance. However, there are other factors to consider while aligning your texts, such as the position of the other design elements, the size difference between the headings and body texts, and many others.

Use Ample Whitespace
Your movie night invitation design is more than just aesthetics. While going through the design process, don’t forget why you are designing the invitation: to invite others to your event. Hence, you need to concentrate on every tiny detail to make the movie night invitation perfect.
Whitespace or negative space is one of those design elements that not only create harmony but lead your recipient from one element to another. According to a study conducted by Human Factors International, Whitespace increases comprehension of any design by 20%. And you don’t want to miss out on this opportunity.
