When it comes to modern wedding invitations, don’t confuse modern with minimalist! You, my dear, can have it all… whether it’s black and white, colorful, or intricately abstract, you can achieve a modern look with little effort!
Wedding criteria and aesthetics change all the time, so if you’re worried your invites won’t be trendy, don’t! Contemporary styles may now include abstract design, fun fonts, and typography, but they will always continue to evolve. What matters most is that you make your invitations your own!
If you’re on the hunt for some inspiration, you’ve come to the right place. Emphasize what you want, toss out what you don’t, and just have fun designing the invitation of your dreams! Here are some of our favorite modern wedding invitation designs…
What Makes a Wedding Invitation Modern?
There are quite a few elements that make wedding stationery “modern,” and lucky for you, it isn’t difficult to align your personality with them either!
Consider incorporating monograms or lowercase letters of your initials. Explore patterns, shapes, and silhouettes to bring that extra WOW factor to your invitation. Peruse the numerous trendy themes including geometric lines, arch shapes, and textured paper patterns!
Depending on the level of formality you desire for your big day, you can even make subtle changes to help your guests understand the vibe. Consider changing the paper’s weight, opting for colored edges, and switching up the envelope style or even the physical shape of the invite.

Modern doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be minimalistic! We love this one because of the abstract, punchy botanical printed leaves and florals.
If you don’t utilize white and black at all, the overall effect is still breezy and fun. We love how the darkest colors on the invite are still in the burgundy family- and you can safely bet this wedding will feature tons of tropical, boho-inspired floral arrangements.
Black and White Lined Arch Wedding Invitation

The arch theme is here to stay and this is a great example of why! You don’t always have to have the arch shape incorporated as the physical invitation itself, you can simply add it as a border to achieve a similar effect.
We like how this set includes one card in the opposite color; it adds an element of contrast and fun!

Hip Black and White Retro Wedding Invite
All items on this template are completely editable. You are free to change the text, add text boxes, change the colors, and so much more.
This wedding invite is a great example of how much weight font actually pulls when it comes to wedding invitation design.
This funky font is retro, which sounds somewhat counterintuitive when we’re talking about modern styled invites, but we beg to differ.
Retro font, when paired with a simple sans serif font (for the information) instantly lifts this invitation and gives it some fun personality. You don’t even need to go crazy with the colors (but you can- and we definitely won’t judge you!)
Modern Elegant Gold Wedding Invitation
This elegant gold wedding invitation template is easy to customize, saving you time and money without sacrificing style.
The gold edges on this refined wedding invitation are so delicate and help to give it a little bit of “rawness.”
We think this would be a great choice for a modern wedding taking place in the late summer or early fall.
You can have both elegant and modern in the same invitation, and this is proof! We’re forecasting beautiful yellow flowers everywhere, bud vases full of sprigs, and lots of love.
