Our wedding was a "destination" wedding. I say it that way because everybody had to travel but it wasn't to a sandy beach. We had a lot of information to get to our guests so we sent with a fold out with a pocket that held RSVP, reception card, and directions/accomadations.

Start the invitation off with a short, cute, catchy poem/song that relates to the theme of your wedding.

We used a cute little invite to send out to our guest on designed paper. We included brochures, and an informative letter about the area as well. This went out a year in advance. The cost was less than 50 cents an invite got most of my stuff donated by my travel agent. Then 4 months out we sent (homemade) formal invites, but to only the people that were coming on the cruise and close family and friends. The cost was about $30 for everything for the formal invites (saved money with a smaller list).

Sending out invitations to males in the shape of tuxes (ornate 3 dimensional paper if possible) and to females in the shape of weddings dresses (or regular dresses). If there are both genders for each address, they will receive both!
