I'm looking for some fun wording for our invites. We got dirt cheap DIY invites, but they don't really fit the tone of our wedding or our personalities, but who cares, they were $11 for 75. I do want to infuse some fun/personality into the wording to help set the tone for the wedding. I've been looking around but haven't found anything I really love yet. We aren't mentioning family. We don't want to offend anyone or make people think we aren't taking the ceremony seriously, but we want to let people know that this is going to be fun, not really formal and stiff. Help please!

How about a fun word spacing?

or something like this? I don't care for all of it, but it is a more relaxed kinda invite.

Kali, I can't read that! What does it say?

So far I kind of like this one, it's not so "funny" but kind of cute without making me want to vomit. Some of the Offbeat Bride ones I might be able to re-work, I had seen that before. I really like the RSVP with the bells... but we are just doing online/phone rsvp, so I don't know how that will work.

At Invitations by Dawn, we see all kinds of wording come through. We love how creative couples can get! My recent favorite is in paragraph form. The wording is very casual and even funny at times. It made me want to rethink my own wedding invitations!

Check out this collection of custom invitation wording at Invitations by Dawn. There are lots of examples that might help you decide on a verse to use or they might inspire you to write your own.
