Formal 25th Wedding Anniversary Invitation Wording

To issue an anniversary invitation you can use the formal wording and as you might probably know the wording etiquette for the wedding invitations is basically similar with the one for the wedding anniversary invitations; an alternative is to use an informal language and add some verses or favorite quotes or simply express in you own words the feelings you have for your partner after all these years spent together.




The invitations to a wedding anniversary are issued by the married couple or their children and there are some similarities with the simple invitations for a wedding ceremony or reception.

The design of the invitation card is very important and the patterns, colors, sizes and shapes come in a wide variety so it would be better to select something more appropriate for such an event; you can also personalize the anniversary invitations by adding a picture from your wedding day.

Far more important than the design of a wedding anniversary card is the wording used to make the inviting. The wedding anniversary invitations should contain pertinent information about the anniversary reception such as the name of the hosts and the name of the celebrated couple, the name of the location with an address and sometimes with details like a printed map or directional signs, the time and date, and some other details you might find necessary for your guests. You can even ask for a memory present or give a hint about the theme for the wedding anniversary reception.

Thermography still remains the cheapest modality to print de text of an invitation and can create a beautiful effect with its raised letters; for the silver or golden wedding anniversary I suggest choosing the hand written invitations because of their classical appearance, with an intricate calligraphy style or old fonts.

For the formal 25^th wedding anniversary invitation the traditional language is probably the most popular one but, as I’ve stated above, you can always be creative with words and use a personal addressing form.

Below you may find some of the most common formal wording examples used for the twenty fifth anniversary invitations.
