Epic Modern Art Deco Wedding Invitations

Rustic, whimsical, romantic – words oftentimes associated with weddings. And of course they are because those styles all make for a gorgeous wedding day filled with the décor to match. But there are endless styles and themes that couples can opt for like an upscale modern art deco wedding for instance. 

When you think modern art deco think a wedding ceremony held in a cathedral with a reception at the art museum downtown or even an outdoor venue at the club adorned with a black and white color scheme and a black tie dress code to match. Weddings like this don’t have to be exclusive to the above average budget because the savvy brides of 2018 know how to make it work!

If that sounds right up your ally or maybe you’re just now going to consider it. Either way, before you take that glamorous walk down the aisle first things first – wedding invitations. Wedding invitations are one of the first pieces of your wedding that guests will get to see so for a fancy affair like this modern art deco wedding invitations are a standout choice! But what does modern art deco mean in regards to invitation designs? Well, the invitation guru’s over at Basic Invite are here to share the inside scoop on just that.

What does a modern art deco style invitation look like?

Modern and art deco go hand in hand. Essentially, you’ll see designs that have sharp lines, intricate patterns, and simple typeface. 

 How can you take a modern invitation design to the next level?

Customize your modern design using colors that match that style. Choose a bright white cardstock or a creamy neutral tone and pair it with crisp black font or a deep charcoal hue. Another way to fancy up an already elaborate design is by adding foil. Basic Invite offer three foil colors in two types – gold, silver, and rose gold in both flat or raised. This is a total trick of the trade to make the most simplistic invitations totally epic!

Is a black and white color scheme the only art deco appropriate palette?

Heck no! Black and white are certainly classic choices that can easily be modernized. But if color is more your thing, Basic Invite lets customers choose from over 180 colors to customize with. So, if you want an art deco inspired invite using your wedding colors that totally works!

Basic Invite is such a great resource for brides searching for the perfect invitations.
