The wedding invitation is like the opening act to your wedding event. Your choices are endless. It could be handmade, theme related, color related, story related or just so over the top it will be talked about right untill the wedding day.

Some of the newest trends are boxed invitations, meaning they are placed in a box instead of a traditional envelope. Usually this type of invitation has a 3d look or a gift inside, like a brooch, fancy ribbions, flower seeds, seasonal ornaments ect..

Another trend is the wine bottle invitation. The actual wording of the invitation is done on a label on the bottle of wine, with a response card attached separately on ribbon around the bottle neck. I have also seen the bottle invitation singlely created and hand delivered. This is very dramatic.  The delivery can also incorparate your theme.  Have the delivery person dressed in chacater related to the wedding theme. 

There are many artist now who are making the lovelyest wedding invitations and you would be surprised how comparible in price they are to traditional printed invitations.

Let your invitation be as thought out as your venue for it is the debut of your event.
