Couples looking to tie the knot would do well to check out a few of these creative save-the-date designs. Planning an original wedding can cost a lot of money, but you can cut costs and still ensure a dose of originality by creating a cool and quirky set of wedding invitations.
Who needs a themed wedding when you can create a set of 8-bit wedding invitations or a wedding invitation that invites you to hang yourself? While some of these designs are deceptively expensive (I'm talking to you View Master wedding invitations) most are affordable and can be made at home or purchased for a small fee. If you are planning a wedding anytime soon, then you are definitely going to want to check out all of these creative save-the-date designs.
