Wedding invite wording and design go hand-in-hand; together, they communicate everything a guest needs to know about and can expect from your upcoming wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, wedding invitations are sent six to eight weeks before a wedding, but this time frame can vary depending on the length of the engagement and whether the wedding will take place locally or in a far-off destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There can be some pressure to abide by tradition and etiquette in the wording of the invitation, which can make it challenging to get the invite just right so that your personalities still shine through. We\u2019ve put together this guide to help you perfect any wedding invitation&#8217;s wording, whether formal, casual or unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table of contents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#Line-by-line-wording-of-a-wedding-invite\">Line-by-line wording of a wedding invite<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blogadmin.merch.vpsvc.com\/hub\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=15047&amp;action=edit#Match-your-invitation-design-to-the-wording\">Match your invitation design to the wording<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Formal-invitation-wording-and-examples\">Formal invitation wording and examples<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Casual-invitation-wording-and-examples\">Casual invitation wording and examples<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Line-by-line-wording-of-a-wedding-invite\">Line-by-line wording of a wedding invitation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A wedding invitation has a few jobs. The most important is to give guests all the details they need to prepare for your wedding, like the time, location and dress code. It also includes other information that could factor into whether a recipient attends, like whether children are invited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wedding invitations can look very different from each other, but for the most part, they include the same information. Wording can be formal or casual, depending on the type of wedding the couple has chosen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at these two wedding invitation wording examples, one more formal and the other quite casual:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow

You can keep this simple and list the time numerically, like 5 pm or 3:30 pm, as is used in more casual invite wording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, the time is often spelled on out more formal invitations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At three o\u2019clock in the afternoon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At half-past five in the evening<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key piece of information to include is where the ceremony will be held. Here are a few wording examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At the Sunrise Resort in Palm Springs, CA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>St. Mary\u2019s Episcopal Church, Bethlehem, PA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At our home [include address]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If the reception will be at another venue, make sure to mention this below or in an enclosure card. List all venues so guests can look them up\u2014knowing where to go is part of preparing to attend a wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Address and map<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>After naming the venue, including its address, you might also include a map of the venue (this information can go on the back of the invitation), depending on the invitation&#8217;s design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img width=\"1533\" height=\"1063\" data-public-id=\"ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_1533,h_1063,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA\" alt=\"crossword puzzle wedding invitation design\" class=\"wp-post-15047 wp-image-15063\" data-format=\"jpeg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1713212264\" data-seo=\"1\" data-responsive=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_1533,h_1063,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 1533w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_1448,h_1004,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 1448w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_1248,h_865,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 1248w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_1048,h_726,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 1048w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_848,h_588,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 848w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_648,h_449,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 648w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_448,h_310,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 448w, https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/vistaprint\/images\/w_248,h_171,c_scale\/f_auto,q_auto\/v1713212264\/ideas-and-advice-prod\/blogadmin\/WeddingInvite-Illia\/WeddingInvite-Illia.jpeg?_i=AA 248w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1533px) 100vw, 1533px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Source: Wedding invitation design by <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/99designs.com\/profiles\/lliiaa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><em>lliiaa<\/em><\/a><em> via 99 designs by Vista<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Point guests in the direction of your wedding website by including the URL on the invitation.

You might choose to use a quote to grab the recipient\u2019s attention at the top of the page or to wrap the invitation up nicely in the final line. The quote can be romantic, funny, inspirational, or taken from a favorite song, poem or book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Match-your-invitation-design-to-the-wording\">Match the wording to your wedding invitation design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An invitation\u2019s second-most important job is to set the tone for the wedding. Typically, a wedding invitation incorporates design elements that communicate the couple\u2019s chosen wedding aesthetic, like a monochrome invitation with a serif font for a sophisticated minimalist wedding or a light-colored invite with botanical imagery for a relaxed wedding in natural surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Determining your theme and formality level for the wedding ceremony and reception are decisions you\u2019ll make early on in the planning process. These decisions, such as whether your wedding will be a formal banquet hall dinner or a casual rooftop party, inevitably inform your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/stationery\/wedding-invitations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/stationery\/wedding-invitations\"> invitation<\/a> design and wording.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Familiarizing yourself with the concept of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/hub\/brand-copy\">brand copy<\/a> can help your wedding invitation wording strike the right tone. Reading examples of marketing emails from different brands, you\u2019ll notice that luxury brands use more formal language in their communications, while startups and tech brands tend to use more conversational language to express a more casual image. Think about this as you write your wedding invitation\u2014what image are you aiming to convey?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of the same concepts that apply to brand identity can be applied to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistaprint.com\/stationery\/wedding\">wedding planning<\/a>.
