Wording On Wedding Invitations

Wording on wedding invitations is one aspect from many that require a lot of attention. Once you’ve figured out the theme, design and the colors you need to start thinking about what wording to integrate. It’s important to say things right, it’s important to make sure that your guest understand exactly what you want to tell them. The message must be clear and personal, and combine basic information with personal touches.




A wording is made up from two parts. This is the basic structure: two parts coming together are making a statement. The first part is all about the following questions: who is getting married? Where is the ceremony taking place? What about the reception? What hour will the event begin? Factual data once being listed, it’s time to go to chapter two of “wording on wedding invitations”.

This chapter comprises the couple’s favorite quote. Now, this quote can mean random phrases the bride and groom wrote or it can mean some lines from their favorite poem. In other cases the quote is made up from lyrics from a favorite song.  In a growing industry there are more and more wedding retailers and specialists that give you a hand when it comes to details such as wording.

For example, Invites Galore.com provides brides and grooms a wide collection of sample wedding invitation wording.

There are a number of variables that you must take into consideration. For example, if the bride’s parents are organizing the wedding, their name should appear in the wording. The same thing happens if the both the bride and groom parents are hosting the event. Then the wording is much influenced by the style of the invite cards. For example, if the wedding invitations are classic then the wording should respect etiquette.  If the wedding invitations are hip, trendy you can be as creative as you want.
