Dolphins are known for their playful lifestyle and permanent happy grin, so why not make them part of you wedding or special event stationery? I'm not talking about filling the Best Man slot, although that would be different. There are many beautiful selections of paper and gifts that feature the sleek dolphin. As popular and well known as they are, many couples may want to incorporate them someplace in their wedding day.
The dolphin is a graceful, ever-happy, ocean mammal that we can't help but love, and their images add a magical touch to any event. Real life dolphins are curious about people and swimming with them could be a honeymoon memory you'll never forget.
Here are some ideas for incorporating our sea-roaming dolphin friends into your special event.
Dolphin Wedding Theme
by dustytoes
For those couples who love sea life, the happy and fun-loving dolphin could be the perfect choice as your wedding theme.
Unique Tropical Designer Stationery
The wording on this paper is set up as a theater poster, which is very unique.
What a great idea! This movie poster style, dolphin themed, wedding invitation has a unique wording setup. The bride's and groom's names are listed at the top, in the corners, as if they are the stars of the show (which they are!).
In the center, surrounded by two dolphin images is the title of the "movie", which is "Forever". The background is a scenic ocean and sunset image and all other information is printed at the bottom, including "coming soon" text.
Do you prefer decorated wedding invitations, or plain and simple?
A quick questionnaire for the bride and groom.
Square Dolphin Invitations
The "Rustic Dolphins" wedding invitation is made on square paper and has two, brown-colored dolphins at the top of the card.
It was made by The Bride Shop at Zazzle and the style is meant to please any couple who prefers a rustic paper look.
The example wording set up has the bride's parents doing the inviting, and the font is "Loriah" which is a handwritten style. The Bride Shop has other lovely sea themed paper with sea horses and anchors. You may contact this designer to have the wording changed.

Dolphin Fun in Florida
Attractions that let you get up close and personal with this happy sea mammal.
Most everyone knows about Sea World in Florida, which features dolphin shows, but there is a fun area within the park that will allow guests to swim with dolphins called Discovery Cove. If your travels take you to the Florida Keys there are other places that allow people to swim with the dolphins as well.
Here are a couple of links with more information. Wouldn't this activity make for some fun honeymoon memories?

Custom Stationery With a Dolphin Pair
This paper has a photo template area on the back.
The "Kissing Dolphins" stationery by weddingsnengagements at Zazzle, features a pair of dolphins at the top and a turquoise blue lace image and light sea green. On the back there is a template area where a photo could be added.
This is a nice idea for a couple who has already been for a swim with dolphins and wants to include the image on their wedding invitations.
Swim With Dolphins In The Wild
Include this once in a lifetime activity in your destination wedding plans.
For couples who enjoy yoga, meditation, and a healthy lifestyle, Wild Quest combines these activities with chance to swim with dolphins in the wild. (View the YouTube video below.) These animals are not in captivity and live a free life in the ocean. Each day a boat will take you out to them, where a photographer will capture the experience during your week long stay. Choose any week, from April through October, to stay at this relaxing retreat on the island of Bimini, in the Bahamas.
The Dolphin Discovery website lists various Mexico and Caribbean locations where anyone can include a swim with dolphins as part of their vacation, or honeymoon. (I think they are in captivity here, but I'm not sure.) The locations are all tropical and the site has beautiful images of each resort. With private beaches and ocean views this is a perfect setting for a destination wedding also.
A Wild Quest Testimony
Bubbles and the Deep Blue Sea
The parents are inviting guests in this wording example.
I love the look of this wedding invitation with dolphins swimming in the deep blue sea. Whimsical bubbles give this paper a magical feel for any tropical event. It's made as a wedding invitation but with templates to play with, all text can be changed, and the designer would probably be happy to help with that if need be.
This image is the invitation text side, and below is the front, with templates for the names of the bride and groom.

This Paper is Easy to Customize
Use these invitation examples for something other than weddings.
All Zazzle invitations shown on this page are easy to customize by using templates. Although the dolphin paper here is set up as a wedding invitation, changing the wording, line by line, means you, the customer, can create an invitation to any type of party or event. Change the wording, and delete the lines of text that are not needed. By using the "customize it" button, there are a whole range of options for making the stationery completely yours. Delete all text and start from scratch using any font style offered by Zazzle and print your own text over one of the many background images available.

Dolphins are such popular marine life. I figure there must be couples who would love this stationery for their wedding. And yes, they would probably love the kissing dolphins!
I've never seen a dolphin theme for wedding stationery but I think it makes a for some really elegant and serene designs. I really love the romantic kissing dolphins which are very sweet.
