After choosing the design for your wedding invitations
you can explore ways to express your relationship and wedding plans through
creative wording. Some couples select a special quotation or poem; others write
personal thoughts from the heart, while those planning a fun and casual wedding
play around with wording even using rhymes.
Creative wording for wedding invitations can also be
inspired by the couple's common interest, the exotic or unusual location of the
wedding, the invitation design, or wedding themes including Disney and
fairytale.
Traditional wedding invitation wording often extends
a gracious request for the "honour" of your presence. Honour, the British
spelling, is reserved for wedding services held in a church or a synagogue.
Less formal wording ranges from a request for the pleasure of your company or
presence to an invitation to celebrate the couple's joyous occasion.
Whether you seek to follow expert wedding invitation
etiquette or relax and follow your own personal style depends on whether the
wedding is formal or casual. Regardless, there are a few tried and true
traditions worth examining.
A traditional mailing includes a wedding invitation,
a response card, and a reception card. Optional inserts include a map/direction
card, registry information, and at-home card informing guests of your new
residence if you will also be relocating.
