I like this simple but cute wedding invitation design by Cristina Moralejo. As you open it, you tie the proverbial knot.

Provided that you’ve got a big budget planned for your wedding, Etsy seller melangerienyc has an original idea for invitations. She’ll make custom View-Master slides and package them with View-Masters in pretty boxes for you to distribute to your wedding guests. Link -via Doobybrain | Photo: Jen Huang
Designer Kelli Anderson made this wedding invitation for her friends, Mike Tarantino and Karen Sandler. Although it’s made of paper, it folds into a semi-functional record player which plays a song composed by the couple. Anderson writes:
The resulting booklet is comprised of a cover, two inner pages, a letterpressed band (with instructions and a tear-off RSVP postcard), and a flexdisc on a screwpost. The recipient bends the second page of the booklet back to create a tented “arm.” With the needle placed, they then carefully spin the flexidisc at 45 RPM (ish) to hear the song. The sewing needle travels the length of the song and produces the sound. Its vibrations are amplified by the thin, snappy paper to which it is adhered. To keep the needle down on the record, we reinforced the back of the “tent” with a spray-mounted half page of heavier cardstock. To reduce friction between the acetate flexidisc and the backing cover, we had the inside of the booklet laminated to be slick and conducive to hand-spinning.
Redditor TheLocoYoko and his fiancée wanted to set the right mood for their wedding, and so commissioned this image for their wedding invitations. When he was asked “Are you inviting people to a wedding, or a massacre?”, TheLocoYoko responded “Depends on how things go with the open bar.”
A young couple named Darino and Niko created a wedding invitation in the form of an 8-bit video game. To get the invitation, one must complete the game. At the link, you can view the groom version of the game and the game-appropriate packaging for the invitations.

Luis Diaz Santis and Magaly Guerrero Ramierz sent out invitations to their wedding depicting themselves as 8-bit characters in a two-player combat video game. Chris Jacob of Gizmodo suggests that this is a subtle social commentary on modern marriage. Either way, it’s cool, and you can view a picture of the groom proposing in binary at the link.
