Summertime is party time, and from baby showers to bachelorette parties to weddings, all good parties need a creative invitation. Your invite sets the tone for the type of event you are throwing and is a great way to get guests in the mood to party well before the big day. While we know it can be tempting to go the digital route, especially for eco-friendly reasons, we can’t resist a good old fashioned paper invite.
This time we made a list of the top 10 exciting and unique wedding invitations. It’s easier to order the invitations and not to worry about that, but be honest, they are all the same and not creative so much. Snub tradition and let your imagination go wild with these fun and unique wedding invitations and save the date ideas.
Modern Vintage DIY Wedding Invitation Set

A brown kraft paper is simple, pure, natural, and ready to be created into something beautiful. You can use this for the major elements of the invitation, and it’s nice the contrast of the 12″ bright white paper doily, which you can cut to wrap around all the sheets. Lastly, tie the whole package up in a green baker’s twine with a tag embossed with “all you need is love.”

One of the easiest ways to dip your toe into the DIY trend is to create your very own invites or ‘save the dates.’ This piece of paper may not seem all that imperative to your day, but the invite can set the tone for the theme or atmosphere of your wedding.
Confetti Invitations

These little tubes shoot a little burst of confetti when you twist them. The problem is they are usually ugly, and the confetti inside them is usually poor quality (like five little sad strands.) So what we did here strip the label, disassemble the spring mechanism. Then put it back together with our own confetti plus an invitation inside. Then the recipient twists the canister for an exciting little moment to get their invitations.
