Wedding Invitation Wording

Has it finally come to the time that you must fill out your wedding invitations to send to all of your family and friends?  Wedding invitation wording is very important and must fit the type of wedding that you are planning to have.  Do you want yours and your parents names placed together?  Whose name goes first?  The parents’ names will precede the brides followed by the groom’s name if the bride’s parents are the ones funding the event.

You don’t have to be formal but you can if you wish to be with your wedding invitation wording.  You can be informal and state both of your names and that you are welcoming each guest to welcome in your marriage.  If you want to have both of your parents names on the invitation, normally the bride’s parents name will come first that will announce the marriage of their daughter.  The brides name will then be placed along with the fiancés name; after this, the groom’s parent’s names.

If there are step parents involved, then the wording can get a bit difficult and must be well thought out.  If you place one set of parents, they all need to go on the invitation.  However, too many names on the invitation may confuse a lot of the guests that receive the wedding invitation, but leaving someone off could hurt their feelings.

Another aspect of wedding invitation wording is not the names.  Some couples like to put their favorite quote or poem on the invitation.  Many actually write their own little notes that come straight from their heart.  Wedding invitation wording can also come from where the wedding will be located – such as on the beach, in the mountain, or maybe you are having a fairytale wedding…you may add the words Prince and Princess or something similar to that in your wedding invitation wording.

If you choose to keep the British tradition alive, provided that you are having your wedding in a church or synagogue, the wedding invitation wording asks for a request of the “honour” of your presence. 

This has been used for years with the British, however, if you having a more informal wedding, you may just ask for the pleasure of your company or an invitation to join us to celebrate our wonderful day.

Your wedding day is very important and your wedding invitation wedding wording is important as well.  You and your fiancé have the decision of what to put on the wedding invitations and what not to…it’s your day, so it’s up to you.
