Keep It Simple with 9 Understated Invitation Suites

While some current wedding trends emphasize brightly colored décor and larger-than-life details, there are many contemporary couples that would rather host a timeless soirée. If this is something that appeals to you and your sweetheart, there is likely more “classic” wedding inspiration out there than you might believe. Perhaps you’re more of a traditional pair, or maybe you find beauty in the understated details – either way, selecting your wedding elements with this motif in mind is important throughout the planning process.
If you’re organizing a more traditional vow exchange, one of the most pertinent aspects in conveying your concept to friends and family is your invitation suite. Guests oftentimes look to the invites for the level of formality of the wedding – rather than the save the dates, as they are typically more playful and casual. You’ll want your mailed paper goods to embody your motif so that attendees know what to expect and, most importantly, what to wear. For an understated event, see some of our favorite simplistic invitations below from real weddings.
