Art Deco geometry, antique gold and ornate, old-world type — vintage invitations suit a Gatsby-era theme, a heritage venue or any couple drawn to glamour with history. Here are editable vintage designs and the wording that fits.

Vintage wedding invitation wording

Vintage designs pair beautifully with formal, period-appropriate wording: third person, spelled-out dates, courtesy titles and traditional request lines.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Whitmore
request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter
Vivian Rose

Theodore Ellis
Saturday, the seventeenth of October
two thousand twenty-six · at seven o'clock in the evening

For the full set of formal phrasings and the "honour vs pleasure" rule, see the formal wording guide and the broader wedding invitation wording examples.

Pair vintage with a dress code

A vintage invitation does extra work when it signals the era to your guests — a "black-tie" or "1920s glamour" line on the invitation or your website helps everyone dress the part. You can add that line to any template in the editor.

Frequently asked questions

What style counts as a vintage wedding invitation?

Designs that reference an era — most often Art Deco (1920s–30s geometry and gold) or the engraved scrollwork of older formal stationery. The Art Deco and Emerald Lux templates capture this directly.

What colours suit a vintage invitation?

Antique gold, deep emerald, midnight blue, ivory and oxblood — rich, slightly dramatic tones that feel period-appropriate. The editor lets you recolour any design to match.

Are these vintage templates free to download?

Yes — free to edit and download as a high-resolution PNG or JPG, with no watermark and no sign-up. Ads keep the tool free.

What wording goes with a vintage invitation?

Formal, period-appropriate wording: a parental host line, 'request the pleasure of your company,' spelled-out dates and times, and a dress-code line. See the formal wording guide for copy-ready examples.
