Modern Wedding Invitation Ideas

Choosing your wedding invitations becomes a bit easier as soon you’ve decided on your wedding’s theme and color scheme; after all, it’s the invitation that communicates the tone and mood of your wedding to your guests. But if you’re still out of ideas, it helps to look at invitation suppliers and see the designs they offer. Today’s modern wedding invitations come in simplistic yet bold designs that convey your message in a chic manner. Many of them do away with old-fashioned frills like the “inner” envelope, and add unexpected details like cutouts and bows. Here are some wedding invitation ideas to get you started.

This vertical folio invitation has to be one of the most unique designs I’ve ever seen. Tucked within the black backer are the reception cards and respond post cards. With an invitation like this, your guests won’t have any excuse to not RSVP!

Polka dots lend an effortlessly elegant feel to wedding invitations. It’s cool and whimsical without trying too hard, especially when paired with a bold color like lime! Place the invitations in a contrasting envelope to finish off the look.

Who says you can’t add romantic details like flowers or hearts on a contemporary design? The trick is to make sure that they’re illustrated in a free-form or abstract style. Pair it with a black backer to amp up the sophistication factor.

This unique wedding invitation features die-cut taupe and pink beads on white vellum, and displays the invitation wording on the middle and right panel. Definitely not your cookie-cutter invite!

Consider displaying the first letter of your new family name in the middle of a white card, then tucking it into a folder. Add an accent in the form of a color-coordinated satin ribbon tied into a knot.
