Beach Theme Wedding Invitation Ideas

Here are a few ideas to help inspire you.

Beach theme wedding invitations using real seashells

First up is one of my favorite invites, because it literally brings the beach to life! These unique beach theme invitations are accented with a beautiful pearlized embossed paper, seashells and pearls.

Sandal Beach Theme Wedding Invitations

This is another really fun and unique idea! The invitation is made with rustic hessian burlap and starfish! But my favorite part is the RSVP card cut in the shape of a flip flop sandal. These are printed on heavy cardstock and available in any color! This is a fun and unique beach wedding invitation that none of your guests will expect.

Simple Designs

Does the idea of using contemporary shapes for your beach theme wedding invitations seem too radical for your taste? Wanna stay a little on the traditional side, while still weaving in some seaside element into the theme?

You can have the best of both worlds with some traditionally square white card stock that incorporates imagery such as seashells, seahorses, or starfish. This is a great DIY project or if you’d rather let a pro handle it, you can find some great options like the one pictured here on Etsy.

Elegant Pocket Fold

Who said beach theme wedding invitations couldn’t be glamorous too? I love, love, love the texture of these handcrafted gatefold invites. There’s no doubt these invites will show how classy, unique, and modern of a destination or beach theme ceremony you’re planning!
