Formal, classic, timeless.  You cannot go wrong with a black and white wedding, as black has forever been a favorite in clothing and design.

Black has a lot of advantages for weddings too - it creates beautiful photographs, is instantly slimming, and goes perfectly with just about any accent color.

The best thing about going with black is that you can find some unbelievably elegant and stunning wedding invitations.

Wood carved swirls give this wedding invitation a touch of vintage, while still remaining classic and elegant.  Charcoal colored text makes the black script font really stand out for the couple’s names.  The Filigree wedding invitation is available at our store, Modern Girl Invitations.  It’s really stunning in black, but is customizable in any color shown on our color chart.

Another invitation that looks amazing in black is our Vintage Monogram wedding invitation.

Your wedding invitations definitely set the tone of your event, so if you’re doing a beach, summer, or destination wedding, it’s important to choose an invitation that conveys the feel and formality of your wedding.  Beach & destination weddings are likely to be more casual events, so setting the tone with a bright, colorful and playful invitation like our tropical flowers design can be important so that guests know what to expect.

A stylized three toned tropical flower adorns this invitation suite giving it a pretty and playful feel.  The flower is slightly reminiscent of a Hawaiian plumeria flower or a hibiscus.  The great thing about the flower being several layers is that you can customize this design in up to four colors so that it matches your wedding colors perfectly.

The perfect wedding invitation package for your beach wedding.

The full suite includes the invitation, response card, two enclosures, and flat thank you notes.  The enclosures in the photograph are used as reception and directions cards, but you can customize these as you’d like.  You can include flight, hotel, and other travel information, as well as activities schedules, dress code, and a registry or honeyfund if you have one.

The tropical flowers wedding invitations are available from our store, Modern Girl Invitations, and as always can be customized in your colors at no additional charge.  Below the invite is shown in Fuschia, Tangerine, and Lime - another bright, bold, and stunning combination!

Wedding season is now in full swing and it’s time to start thinking about your wedding invitations!  This spring some popular trends will continue to grow, such as damask wedding invitations and wedding invitations with scrolls and swirls.  This lovely scroll wedding invitation from our site is quite a bit different from the typical scroll invitations you’ll find around the web.

A unique take on an invitation with scrolls

You might remember this wedding invitation from a few months back when we were working with a bride who used this invite in a Moroccan themed wedding.  That particular bride customized this invite in grape, mulberry, caribbean blue, and apple green for a bold and stunning result.  Our classic version in orange is just as pretty though, creating an elegant yet edgy look.
