Words by Utterly Printable
The traditional wedding invitation has been the most popular design for decades. And whilst we still love a gorgeous plain-white invitation with cursive black writing and an ornate border, we also understand why many couples are now choosing to head in a different direction. We love that this has provided the wedding stationery design world with the perfect opportunity to explore our creativity and cultivate our colourful side.
Wedding etiquette is constantly evolving, the rules have changed greatly over the last ten years, and when it comes to wedding stationery designs, it’s no different. Gone are the days of no option but plain-white card and black script, and whilst floral wedding invitations are definitely having their moment, we are seeing more and more adventurous couples taking the leap and choosing something contemporary and unique. So, if you’re planning a not-so traditional wedding, or are simply a couple with a creative flair then have a look through this list of our favourite modern wedding invitation designs and see what sparks the joy in you.
