Invitations are an essential part of party planning. However, your average invitation can get a bit stale after a while, so we’ve compiled some fun and quirky ideas to really spruce up your own invitations.
1. Thematic Invitations
If your party has a specific theme to it, a great way to incorporate it further is to use it in the invites. For example, if you’re throwing a pirate-themed party for your little one, an invite in the shape of a captain’s tricorn or a pirate ship would be perfect.
2. Balloon Invitations
If you’d like something a bit more unconventional, why not try a balloon invite? There are a variety of websites that allow you to purchase custom balloons with whatever text you like on them. Sending one out to your guests to inflate on their own, along with a small tag with more details, is sure to leave a lasting impression.
3. Custom Portrait Invitations
To really personalise a party invite, you could have a stylised portrait of the person celebrating printed onto it. There’s a wide variety of custom portraits to choose from, so you’re sure to find something to your liking.
4. Jigsaw Puzzle Invitations
Sending out pieces of your invitations to potential guests for them to reassemble would definitely leave a lasting impression. There are a few different styles you can get, either in wooden or card forms, and all are customisable.
5. Retro Style Invitations
Another stand-out idea for party invites is to give them a retro bent. It can be especially effective if you use some old photos of the person celebrating, to really give it that old-school touch.
Hopefully, these are enough to give you some exciting ideas to keep in mind next time you’re planning a party.
