How do I word wedding invitations when the couple is hosting?

When the couple hosts, use: 'Together with their families, [Bride Name] and [Groom Name] request the pleasure of your company at their wedding.' Or simply: '[Bride] and [Groom] invite you to celebrate their marriage.' Our AI offers multiple couple-hosted wording options.

What is the traditional wording for wedding invitations?

Traditional wording when the bride's parents host: 'Mr. and Mrs. [Parent Names] request the honour of your presence at the marriage of their daughter [Bride Name] to [Groom Name].' Note 'honour' with a 'u' for formal religious ceremonies. Our AI generates both traditional and modern options.

How do I word invitations for a casual wedding?

Casual wording examples: 'Join us as we say I do!' or '[Names] are getting married and want you there!' or 'We are tying the knot and throwing a party!' Our AI generates wording that matches your wedding vibe, from black-tie formal to backyard casual.

How do I word invitations for a destination wedding?

Destination wedding invitations need extra details: travel information, accommodation suggestions, and a longer RSVP timeline. Example: 'Join us in Cabo San Lucas as we celebrate our wedding.' Our AI includes all destination-specific wording needs.

What is the correct name order on wedding invitations?

Traditionally, the bride's name comes first since her parents are hosting. For modern invitations, alphabetical order or personal preference works. Same-sex couples can use alphabetical order or decide together. Our AI lets you specify your preference.

How do I indicate dress code on wedding invitations?

Dress code goes in the bottom right corner or on an enclosure card. Options: 'Black Tie,' 'Formal Attire,' 'Cocktail Attire,' 'Garden Party Attire,' 'Casual.' Our AI includes appropriate dress code wording for your style.

Should I include registry information on wedding invitations?

Registry information should NOT go on the formal invitation - it is considered impolite. Include it on your wedding website, in a separate enclosure card, or have family spread the word. Our AI can generate wedding website card wording that mentions the registry tastefully.
