I let you all know how much I love invitation inspiration, and I started off with sharing traditional invitations (that were way more well received than expected, thanks guys).
I don’t think that Mr. Giraffe and I really want floral themed invitations, just because we’re not really having a floral-y wedding. Who knows though, as I love floral invitations and everything about them. They can be super classy, or super modern, or really, both. Originally, I was kind of against floral invites because I thought they were kind of cheesy and predictable, but I was soooo wrong!
See, I can admit when I’m wrong (sometimes), so get ready for some amazing inspiration. First, here are some more traditional (but surprisingly hip) floral invitations.
Still traditional, but I loooove the modern image
I always thought I was more modern person, but that third invite really appeals to me. I love the mix of modern and traditional.
Anyways, here are some modern floral invitations for you all to drool over.
Talk about a pop of color!
Every single thing here is perfect. Just perfect. I love it.
Once again, just lovely. Believe it or not, the backs here are fabric covered and those big flowers are fabric too. Amazing.
Kate Spade: more than just purses and fancy China!
A big ampersand?! Love it! You know I love those!
Love the gray and yellow.
So, hive, are you in love? Yeah, me too. I can see why so many people lean towards floral wedding invitations. Classy, hip, and all around awesome.
What do you say team: floral traditional or floral modern?
Isn’t it funny what we learn about ourselves in the process of planning? I thought I’d be a more traditional gal. But as it turns out, I really love the more modern invitations. So modern floral for me, please and thank you. 
I’m confused, this is showing up as Miss Lioness’ post, but it says Mr. Giraffe and links to a post Miss Giraffe wrote 
So much better than the traditional invites previously posted! Love the water color example same with the letterpress ones too. I swoon over anything letterpressed that is done well!
I actually made the fabric flower invitations from merriment design. I heart them big time. There’s something magical about the feel of fabric and paper together.
Floral modern! The first modern one is sweet without being saccharine.
Floral modern. You can have the traditional wording and fonts, but still make it current with the graphic florals.
Thanks for saying my invitations scream classy! The fourth ones down (from Invitations by Ajalon) are actually the ones I designed with them - they left my name in there (Laura Emilie > username lemilie) but changed everything else around. How funny to see them pop up in a post!
I absolutely love both sets of yellow and grey invitations. Fun but still classy!
@lemilie, your invitations are beautiful!
I’m gonna be old school and say floral traditional! I absolutely looooove the invites in the 2nd photo.
Our wedding is not floral at all, I never thought I would ever want floral invites, but now that I’m gathering inspiration I find myself leaning toward them. Who knew?!
I love these posts! Anyway you can stretch out the series until I hunker down and pick invitations??
I die over the 3rd one down - those flowers at the bottom?? So rad.
I think floral designed cards help makes your invitations more charming and presentable. I can see that the designs are well-made and designed good.

Mrs. Giraffe, Chicago Age and Occupation: 23, Graphic Designer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Music Student Teacher Engagement Date: October 23, 2008 Wedding Date: May 2011 Venue: Trinity Lutheran Church & Idlewild Country Club About Me: Coming from the suburbs of the Windy City, you'll often find me with my foot in my mouth while laughing for no reason or telling bad knock knock jokes. I've been crafty for as long as I can remember, and will DIY something twice over before I have someone do it for me. I'm a semi-awkward, typeface obsessed, design junkie and have been know to break out my dance moves for no reason as well as try my best to be ridiculous at all times. My love of pop culture, wordplay, and graph paper almost rivals my love of Mr. Giraffe (who is just the bee's knees). After a 2.5 year engagement, we're planning a modern-in-disguise traditional wedding, and cannot wait!
