More Invitation Inspiration

This Cheetah is on the hunt. My prey: awesome and unique invitation inspiration.

As much as I adore all things paper, I’m digging the idea of putting wedding invitations on a different material, such as fabric or even wood.

This wedding invite is looking pretty on a vintage handkerchief! Wouldn’t it be awesome if your guests brought the invitation to the wedding and used it to dry their misty eyes during the ceremony?

I love how this invitation is the expected shape and size, but the fact that it’s printed onto fabric really adds a wow factor.

This invitation is printed on real wood veneer!

I do still love paper, though, and lately I have been gravitating toward booklet invites.

This one is simple and sweet. Plus, check out the awesome wood-grain paper!

I’m a huge fan the clean, modern design of this booklet:

I’m in love with the book-like layout of this invitation. Each page says “Our Story Begins” along the top.

Did you pick an unusual material or layout for your invitations?

I was totally into the booklets too, and when I saw Bear Cub’s, I was like, OMG YES!

I am doing handkerchief save the dates! I am gonna attempt to DIY- but we will see how it goes

It seems fairly easy from what I have researched so far. I purchased some hankies from etsy and I am going to design it on my computer and iron it on…This is all in theory, of course. heh.

Love the idea of a wedding invite on a handkerchief to bring to the wedding. We ladies for sure fill up at such special occassions.

Really liking the handkerchief idea! It’s a nice alternative to expensive paper invitations that most people are just going to throw out after awhile.
