Alternative Wedding Invitation Ideas

Five great alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion ideas

Alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion 1: the Lotus Flower

Lotus flower alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion found on With­out A Hitch — the flower is cut from blue pat­terned paper and becomes a stun­ning, dif­fer­ent wed­ding invi­ta­tion via the magic of origami. A tag attached to the flower has all the infor­ma­tion a guest could need!

Alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion 2: for book lovers

For paper– and book-lovers every­where: these alter­na­tive invi­ta­tions styled from books are divine. A dis­cov­ery from one of my favorite wed­ding blogs at Oh So Beau­ti­ful Paper.

Alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion 2: invites in a tin!

Wed­ding invi­ta­tion in a tin! How cute is this — shiny, retro, thrifty-looking (but not, thanks to Royal Mail!) — worth it if you love to make a splash with your invites! Dis­cov­ered at Lovely Pack­age.
Beau­ti­fully nat­ural: alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion num­ber 3

A cre­ative and nat­ural alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion — care­fully designed and styled from two cir­cles of untreated, recy­cled chip­board — die-cut and then letter-pressed to look like an old plant­ing wheel. This invi­ta­tion is really dif­fer­ent! Another find on With­out A Hitch.

Alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion 4: cam­era film invites

For your inner pho­tog­ra­pher — these retro alter­na­tive invites were cre­ated by wed­ding pho­tog­ra­phers to be eye-catching and fun. They’re inter­ac­tive: pull the thingy to ‘reel’ the infor­ma­tion out. I saw this on the fab­u­lous Invi­ta­tion Crush website.

If you have an alter­na­tive wed­ding invi­ta­tion idea please share it here with every­one! Images can be uploaded with the com­ments options below –but please keep the size to 600 pix­els wide, no more (magazine-quality huge images make my blog run really slowly).

Happy Mon­day everyone!
