So much planning goes into the wedding day that it can be easy to forget everything that comes before it. There’s so much to organize, arrange and plan for that small yet necessary steps can be forgotten; steps like actually inviting all the guests!

Wedding invitations tell guests a lot about what to expect at the wedding, not just where and when, but important wedding details like what the theme will be. A well-chosen wedding invitation design will let the guests know exactly what to expect and how to dress, act, and prepare accordingly.

Picking the wedding invitations must be done so far in advance of the wedding that it can feel overwhelming to try and coordinate the cards with the theme. What if you are undecided?

A clever way to go about choosing the perfect cards is to settle on a broad theme first. In this case, we will be looking at some of the most lovely rustic wedding invitations.

Birch and Eucalyptus Cards

Wooden cards, who would have guessed? These unique invitations display nature at its most elegant.

Each custom-engraved card has a bit of nature added via a sprig of thermal-shocked eucalyptus tied on with twine. These cards are durable and travel well but also present a truly organic look.

These cards are the perfect fit for a rustic outback wedding.

Printed White Birch Heart Cards

If real wood is just a little too rustic for your tastes, why not try these printed white birch cards?

Each card is double-sided with the bride and groom’s initials “carved” into a heart. It’s the ultimate romantic gesture, but in card format, so all your guests can share in the love.

Natural Rustic Wedding Invitation

If you are looking for a slightly more environmentally friendly wedding invitation option, these cards are the ticket.

Each card contains an invitation, a ready-to-go RSVP letter, and a burlap band that holds it all together with a wooden “we do.” Each card comes in a recycled envelope.

These cream and brown cards suit any fall wedding.

Ivory Lace Wedding Invitations

If you’re looking for something a little more Arsenic and Old Lace, pardon me, I mean lacy, then these ivory cards are the ideal choice.

The laser-cut lace envelope is delicate and intricate like filigree. It looks organic and natural yet classy.

Each card contains an invitation, an RSVP note, and a custom wood heart tie.

Botanical Vellum Greenery Wedding Invitations

For those who like the cottage-core aesthetic, these invitations will be perfect for your wedding.

Each card includes a raw cut paper invitation and RSVP note, a botanical-themed vellum envelope, and a wax seal to hold it all together.

These cards are perfect for lowkey cottage-core weddings with close friends and family.

Wood Wedding Invitations with lavender

Another engraved wooden card, but these come with nature accents of lavender sprigs rather than eucalyptus. For those looking for a rustic wedding style with a fantastical feeling, these are the cards for you.

The wooden base gives a unique tangibility to the invitation, while the lavender produces a pleasant aroma.

These cards activate every sense and are sure to be remembered.

Country Wedding Invitations

You can fully customize these printed cards to suit any wedding. The invite and RSVP note come bound in a burlap ribbon and fastened with a laser-cut wooden “we do.”
