Fun and Silly Wedding Ideas: Witty invitations, photos, and more!

Wedding News: Humorous invitation goes viral, even passes royal baby!

A Chicago couple held a memorable and fun ceremony, by jesting with their guests. Doing something a bit “out there” can be a memorable experience for everyone; this couple took full advantage of their collective wit and charm. They did it by teasing their guests with a bit of humor before the ceremony.

Attendees of the Kerr/Sabina wedding received a rather unique invitation in the mail. When asked for their RSVP guests were encouraged to select from a few witty and creative responses. Attending guests could select comical options like “I’m in your wedding party, idiot! Wait, is this optional?” or “Two Words: Free Booze”. Guests who were unable to attend the ceremony were prompted by a playful guilt trip stating, “I’m lame, on a scale of 1-10, my lameness would be in the 9.5 to 9.8 range”.

Don’t be afraid to have a little fun with your wedding invitations, photography, music, and stationary!

Katie Kerr, bride, told abcnews that she just wanted to have some fun with her invitations, and so she did. It all depends on the couple, but if you’re the type that likes to tease and banter, you may want to take a page out of the Kerr/Sabina book of wit.

Obviously, with the invitation gone viral, copying these exact options would put your invitations at about a 9.9 on the lame scale, but mimicking the idea in your own way could be a lot of fun! Even if your invitations don’t suddenly go more viral than the birth of the royal baby, you’ll still make your guests chuckle and smile for your special day.

A few ideas you can use to make your own include…

I will attend:

_I plan to object

_My presence is your present

_It depends on the bridesmaid dress you picked

_I’m only going for the cake/booze/pretty bridesmaids (circle one)

_I’m too polite to say no

I cannot make it because:

_A slight jab at the guest for not coming, but nothing overly mean

_Joke about a well-known fact about the bride or groom

_Celebrating alone (for those who live far and can’t make it)

_Other:__________________________________________
