Weddings in India are all about vibrant celebrations and age-old traditions where families and friends gather to celebrate the union of two souls.
Lately, couples have been adding twists to these traditions, including the way they invite guests.
Customised and fancy wedding invitations have become a trend. One such innovative approach was seen in Andhra Pradesh’s Visakhapatnam where a couple designed a wedding card inspired by Apple’s iPhone.
The viral footage, posted by Laxman Wedding Cards on Instagram, shows a wedding invitation designed to look like an iPhone, reported Times Now.
The invitation features a book-style layout with three pages attached together. The cover page displays a photo of the couple as the background – similar to an iPhone’s wallpaper – with the wedding date and time shown above it.
Inside, one of the pages cleverly mimics a WhatsApp chat, sharing all the necessary details about the wedding events, including the reception time.
And for the venue? They have playfully used WhatsApp’s “Send Location” function, revealing the venue location with a unique twist. To top it all, the back cover of the invitation features a realistic camera illustration with a 3D-like effect making it a true standout piece.
The video has amassed a whopping 15 million views. Internet users were amused and intrigued by the unique design and posted a variety of comments in response, reported NDTV.
Some also inquired about the cost of these cards. One user wrote: ‘‘When a designer gets married! I love the idea.’‘ Another joked: ‘‘Very expensive wedding card.’‘ A third said: ‘‘Appreciate your idea.”
In the past, Laxman Wedding Cards has also crafted other innovative designs inspired by everyday items. Alongside the iPhone-style invites, they offer wedding cards that resemble passports and newspapers, adding a fun element to the traditional invitation format.
Last year, a Bangladeshi couple’s wedding invitation captured the Internet’s attention for its quirky and creative concept, reported News 18.
This wasn’t just any ordinary card – it was a playful “research paper” that featured sections like Title, Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion and References. The invitation, belonging to Sanjana and Imon from Dhaka, cleverly used academic terms to share their wedding details.
The Abstract explained the importance of marriage, the Introduction recounted their love story and the Methodology described the wedding plans.
The title of the card included the names of the couple, along with the venue of the wedding.
