Guides for Wedding Invitation Wording
- by Yvonnechock
Wedding ceremony is one of the significant days in one’s life. It’s time to make two souls together with love and invite their best friends to share with their happiness and joys. The wedding invitation plays an important role to let others know this happy thing. However, before you send your wedding invite, you should consider the wording on it.
If the wedding is more traditional, a more formal tone is appropriate to set. For example, if your wedding ceremony will be held at a church, you should make sure that the invitation wording matches the theme. It must look more formal. In other cases, casual wedding invitation can be worded in a relaxed way. Take beach wedding invitation for example, you can write a poem on the invitation in a way that follows the rules of etiquette but reflects your personality..
Avoid abbreviations as wedding invites are not sent out via instant. Make sure that the spellings of names, location or other specific information are correct. At the same time, the wordings have to mention the name of people who’s paying for the wedding. Even if there is no sponsorship from the parents, it is still befitting to include their names in the invitation. But if there are too many assorted sets of parents to fit on one invitation, the bride and groom are the hosts, or it is the bride’s second wedding, the names of the hosts can be omitted.
Short and simple is the recommended way to go for the wedding invitation wording. It is important to ensure all details of information are clearly printed on the invitations, because when people receive an invite, they usually make a quick browse to get the general information. Choose suitable forts for easy reading and avoid using curlicues. Meanwhile, do not use ambiguities. If you want to write more details, such as directions, you can write on the opposite side of the invitation. Remember to send a RSVP on a separate card for a formal invitation.
No matter which style of wedding you are planning to hold, try to write appropriate wordings on your wedding invitations.
