25 Creative Wedding Invitations for Every Style of Celebration (2024)

By

Focus on the Locale

This invite for a destination wedding in Sun Valley took the location as its primary inspiration. Not only did the couple include a map of the area, but they designed a motif as well that was inspired by the area.

Go Western

Touches like a cowboy boot, paisley print, and a rustic palette make this wedding invitation perfect for a Western-inspired celebration.

A Vintage Touch

Set the tone for your vintage-inspired nuptials with invitations that seem as though they come from another time. Tea-stained linen and deckled edges give this suite a positively timeless feel.

A Natural Approach

This invitation suite for a wedding in Big Sky, Montana took note of the wildlife and native florals in the area within its design. The couple even gave guests wildflower seeds to plant in their own gardens.

Pick a Hue

Center your wedding invitation design with just one standout hue. A soft sage green was the perfect tie-in for a bohemian beach wedding's invitation suite.

Embrace the Illustrations

For a mid-century-inspired wedding in the desert, the couple decided to tie together their colorful invitation suite with beautiful illustrations. Have one artist work on the design so the drawings all tie together.

Pick a Print and Font

While this invitation suite has a variety of hues and shapes, a similar font, monogram, and even a fun linear print create a lovely cohesion in the design.

Have Fun With Inserts

Not every wedding invitation insert needs to come in a rectangular shape. This design has a fan-style insert to fill guests in on all the important details of the wedding weekend.

Play With Sheer Paper

This modern invitation design is perfect for the minimalist. The font and colors lend a touch of fun to the design, along with the sheer vellum insert.

Make It Cheery

For the couple that wants their wedding to be light, bright, and full of fun, take note of this delightful invitation suite from an Austin wedding. A rainbow-inspired design in the envelope liner is a great way to tie all the colorful hues together.

Take Inspiration From Art

Take after this couple and find a piece of inspiration for your wedding and invitation design in art. Vincent Van Gogh's "Starry Night" served as inspiration for the entire wedding design, beginning with the beautiful details seen in this suite.

Make It Romantic

A soft pink shade, minimal cursive writing, a textured edge, and a wax seal all came together to create a beautifully romantic invitation suite for an elegant Washington D.C. wedding.

Go Modern

Black and white is already a great choice for a modern invitation suite, but a retro print in the envelope liner from this cool California wedding takes the design to the next level.

Emboss It

An otherwise minimalist invitation suite was given a tropical touch thanks to an embossed palm leaf in the primary invitation card.

Create a Complete Package

Keep all the details in one place with a foldable invitation. This design had a woven pouch inside which held six beautiful inserts complete with custom illustrations and all the info guests needed for a big wedding weekend in Colorado.

Stick to Calligraphy

Only having black and white wording in your design can still be quite stylish if you work with a calligrapher. While relatively simple, this suite is full of personality.

Create an Earthy Aesthetic

Cards in soft brown and white hues, along with a rougher natural envelope, are the perfect choices for couples hosting a wedding with an earthy aesthetic, like at this Santa Barbara wedding.

Channel the Season

This invitation suite channels cool tones and snow-covered foliage to give gets a nice preview of a winter wedding celebration.

Channel Chinoiserie

Hosting a garden or greenhouse wedding? Consider designing your wedding invitations with chinoiserie. The charming floral motifs will create a lovely ambiance and preview the celebrations to come.

Showcase the Couple

Modern couples may find inspiration from this unique invitation suite. The bride and groom of this Chicago wedding had a graphic designer create a line-drawing caricature of the couple to showcase the merging of the two as a family.

Think Vertically

Consider choosing a vertical envelope for your suite. The unexpected direction allows you to play around with the design. We love how this suite at an Antigua affair uses the extra space on the envelope to showcase an illustration of the venue.

Pick a Pop of Color

While this invitation suite is definitely minimal, a touch of blue in the font brings more style to the design.

Showcase Your Florals

Already have an idea what your wedding flowers will look like? Give your guests a preview with illustrations of the blooms throughout your suite.

Design With a Flourish

This invitation suite is all tied together with a flourish. Calligraphy headings throughout and a whimsical floral illustration in the liner creates a charming cohesion to this deckled-edge design.

Design to Your Destination

For a wedding in the bride's hometown of Cabo, the couple chose to give guests a preview of the colorful celebration and nod to the locale.
