MODERN WEDDING INVITATIONS

Modern Wedding Invitation for Chic Couples

If you and your spouse-to-be are intrigued by a trend-forward, chic affair, why not consider more modern invitations? After all, your invitation will set the tone for the big day. If you plan to play with tradition or are holding your ceremony at a venue that features of-the-moment-decor, your invitation and stationery should do the same.

So, forget simple script on cardstock or overly complicated invitation suites: modern wedding invitations are all about putting your personality on full display and having some fun while doing it.

Minted’s independent wedding invitation designers have their fingers on the pulse of the modern aesthetic. From bold typography, playful color blocking, and geometric shapes galore, our modern wedding invitation styles don’t just follow trends, they set them.

Unique Modern Wedding Invitation Designs

Modern wedding invitations take inspiration from forward-thinking graphic design. There is a modern invitation style that can suit any type of wedding, but all of Minted’s modern invitation designs have a few things in common. They are bold, eye-catching, and a little bit playful.

Not sure what type of modern invitation best fits your aesthetic as a couple? Below is a quick guide to some of our favorite modern invitation design elements.

  • Designs with foil: Foil-pressed accents are a timeless element of wedding invitation design. To give foil-pressed design a more modern feel, look for invitations that use it in unexpected (and often more casual) ways. Explore Minted’s foil-pressed invitations which offer various foil colors from gold, silver, bronze, and many more. Foil-pressed linework in sunburst and geometric patterns, bold-foiled shapes, and playful foiled typography are all modern ways to add a bit of shine to your invitation.
  • Geometric Shapes: Bold checkerboard patterns and unexpected ways to use color or texture within the boundaries of geometric patterns are quickly becoming a hallmark of modern graphic design. Choosing a design that plays with geometric shapes is a great alternative to more traditional single-color backgrounds and is a quirky way to nod to a more urban venue.
  • Abstract lines: Abstract lines are another versatile way to add a modern touch to more simplistic invitations. You can go for designs that leverage abstract lines to evoke the shape of rock layers and agate stones for a more natural feel or look for ones that feature single-line illustrations for a more minimal feel.
  • Chic typography: Modern wedding invitation styles tend to skip classic calligraphy in favor of bold and playful typography. Again, there's a version of this that works for every type of couple. If your vibe is chic-but-fun, look for clean typography that flows in unexpected and organic ways — think text that is arched or follows a curved line. More formal couples can opt for invitations that feature a mix of clean-cut typography and hand-lettered script for a refined, dynamic vibe.
  • Sans serif font: Ask any Minted designer and they’ll tell you: San Serif fonts are the epitome of modern typography. This font family uses clean, crisp lines that are the same width throughout — which gives invitations a graphic and fresh feel. A bonus? This font style works particularly well in digital environments, so you’ll be able to create a wedding website that looks just as good as your invitation.
  • Neutral colors: Modern design isn’t only about bold, bright colors. If you prefer a more neutral palette, look for invitation styles that use classic blacks and whites in unexpected ways. You can go for something artistic by picking a style with graphic black accents, playfully nod to a black-tie dress code with bold black bow-tie elements, or keep things simple with a rich black background.
  • Arches: For a softer take on the geometric trend, go for a design that leverages arched accents. These can range from invitations cut into an arch, arched linework, arched typography, or photographs cropped into arch shapes. All look equally modern and are an elegant way to stand out from the crowd.
  • Watercolor: In addition to free-flowing linework, watercolor accents are a firm favorite among Minted’s modern wedding invitation designers. Look for styles that use watercolor in unexpected ways: think graphic single brush strokes, soft splotches in bold and complementary colors, and layered geometric patterns.
  • Unconventional wording: In addition to featuring a fresh take on classic wedding invitation design elements, modern invitations also have some fun with unconventional wording. Some of the best ways to play with wording are to skip formal wording conventions like monograms and hostlines and keep the text as simple as possible. Here are a few modern wording ideas:
    • Minimalist wording: Pair back the wording on your invitation to be as simple as possible. This could look like:

      • Jessica
      &
      Brandon

    • Casual Wording: If your wedding is going to be a casual affair, skip the stuffy language and the cliches and opt for something that gets guests excited for an intimate celebration. This could look like:

      • Jessica
      & Brandon
      Would love you to join their celebration of love

    Modern Touch in Your Whole Wedding Invitation Suites

    There are plenty of ways to put a modern twist on the classic invitation suite. Minted makes it easy to create a cohesive suite that includes exactly what you need to ensure your guests are both prepared and excited about your big day.

    Minted customers have a few ways to build their invitation suite. To keep things as easy as possible, you can choose an invitation style, and leverage the suite of RSVP cards, enclosure cards, envelopes with free addressing, belly bands, and thank you cards created by the designer. This is a great way to let the designer’s eye lead the way and to make sure the colors and shapes that you’re playing with across the suite are all feature design elements that tie them together.

    Or, you can opt to build your suite by mixing and matching elements across multiple designs to get an unconventional take on the shape, sizes, and theme of your suite. The choice is yours!

    Minted’s Matching Stationery

    Minted also makes it easy to carry your modern aesthetic across every element of your wedding — from your save the dates to name tags on your guest favors. Many of our modern wedding invitations designs are a part of a larger family of stationery, signs, and digital assets such as websites, escort cards, bar signs, and more.

    Like with your invitation suite, you can play designer and mix-and-match your stationery across multiple styles to bring your fresh take on ceremony and reception decor to life.
