8 Creative Wedding Invite Ideas to Make it Official

We’re smack in the middle of the spring wedding season and loving the overload of fancy clothes, family reunions, endless mithai and diet-ruining buffet spreads! Weddings are evolving with time – with couples choosing to skip many of the long traditional rituals and instead do a more fun and festive version, that appeals to both family and friends. Much like the wedding invite too, which has evolved from a staid, paper card to fancy innovative offerings which are sure to leave your guests amazed!

1. The audio card

Karnataka minister, Janardhan Reddy left everyone dumbstruck with an LCD invite for his daughter’s wedding. Sure, it got a lot of flak for looking tacky and mimicking a Sooraj Barjatya production – but with a little help from Urbanclap’s partners we can help you come up with an audio-video format that’s tasteful, creative and bound to impress your guests

2. The puzzle card

 

Baffle your guests just a wee bit when a puzzle box lands up at their doorstep. The instructions are simple, put the pieces together and they get to the full layout of the invite to your special day. You can up the games quotient with different mini puzzles for the other functions like the sangeet, cocktails etc.

3. The mystery card

 

Create a scratch-to-discover-details card for your wedding guests. The Who, When, Where questions can all be under scratch-to-reveal boxes, so your guests have to work just a little bit harder to find out what they should be looking forward to!

Create a card with the bride and groom depicted in comic form – you can have so much fun with colours and font in this version. It’s bright, fun and sure to bring a smile on the invitees’ faces.

5. Message in a bottle

Go old school with your invites by writing or printing them out on a scroll and then fitting it inside a glass bottle. Add some sparkle with glitter stars and confetti or even pot pourri for a nice fragrance.
