The range of rustic- and country-inspired themes is one of the most enjoyable aspects of modern weddings.
The mason jar has emerged as a predominant detail. Not only is it fun to drink from, but the container is also a natural for wedding decorations. And, as with most wedding decor, it has made its way onto invitation and save the date designs.
Here are ten different mason jar wedding invitation styles you will enjoy. I’ve also included one or two examples of each. Find more mason jar wedding invitation inspiration here.
1. Wooden elements.

Here are two unique takes on the theme.
