subject: Personal Wedding Invitation Things To Consider [print this page] Leave sufficient time to consider the invitations when you are planning your wedding. All sending a message to the recipients to the recipients and setting the tone for the wedding itself is the look of them, the wording of them, as well as the intent behind their presentation.
For a traditional wording for your wedding invitations, it can go something like this:
Mr. & Mrs. John White
Would like to request the honor of your presence
For you to witness the bonding together
Of their daughter Evelyn Linda White
And
Mr. Michael Warren Jess op
Son of Mr. And Mrs. Winston Jess op
This would, of course, be followed by the particulars.
A less formal approach might read something like this
Evelyn Linda White
And
Michael Warren Jess op
Invite you to witness
Their vows of love
On their wedding day.
And so on
When it comes to a formal versus a casual approach to your wedding invitations, there is nothing inherently right or wrong about it. The scale of the event is where that decision would simply depend on.
As a matter of fact, it would even be appropriate to include the invitation to the wedding reception with the wedding invitation in some situations. At other times, creating a separate invitation for both events would be more prudent.
When it comes to a separate invitation to the reception, it might look like this
Evelyn Linda White
And
Mr. Michael Warren Jess op
Is requesting the pleasure of your company
At their wedding reception,
Sunday, the tenth of June
3:00 P.M.
St. Andrew's Church
3268 Sixth Avenue
The requested attire is black tie
RSVP
888 376-9882
Take note. Email RSVPs will only be acceptable if it is an informal event. If ever, there is also rarely a time when it would be appropriate to invite a guest to your wedding but not to your reception.
To the wedding and reception invitations, the reply card is a fairly new accessory. This is considered as a separate card which is included inside the invitation with lines to be filled out. Etiquette requires you to provide a stamp on the reply card's envelope.
But unlike your intention, the rules are not as important. As long as you put a little conscious energy into every phase of your wedding, including your invitations, then you will be able to manifest a clear and ringing expression of your love and commitment, and a beautiful memory for a lifetime.
