Once the style of the invitation has been chosen, there is still the matter of what to say on the invitations and how to word it.
Below is a guide that applies to both your Traditional and White Wedding.
Who's hosting the wedding
With both families involved in paying for and hosting the White Wedding, the invitations are worded with the names of both families. When it comes to the Traditional Wedding, the Bride’s family who host would be named on the invitation.
The request to come to the wedding
Traditional and religious ceremonies call for formal wording e.g. ‘request the pleasure of your company…’.
The names of the couple
Usually, the bride’s name comes before the groom’s. The location of the wedding Formal invitations tend to list the entire address, including postcode.
The date and times
Stick to standard time and date formatting for a traditional feel or be a little more creative by writing out your dates in full, e.g. First of August Two Thousand and Eighteen.
Reception information
Let your guests know where the reception will be held and what time they can expect it to finish.
RSVP details
You can include instructions on how and when to RSVP at the bottom of your invitation, your info card or a separate RSVP card. Keep the RSVP cut-off of 4 weeks before the wedding.
