Wedding Invitations: What to Write
January 29, 2021
What should you include on your wedding invitations? It’s more complicated than it sounds. Your invitations must convey all the essential logistical details while reflecting the style you want for your big day. In other words, you need Save-the-Date cards that feel original and engaging—capable of grabbing attention and piquing recipients’ curiosity. It’s not a trivial choice: you’ll also want to think about the design and even the envelope.
Choosing the Right Wording
The wording of a wedding invitation is more important than most couples realize. While you know what information must be shared, finding the best tone and format isn’t always easy. A good starting point is to cover the mandatory details first, so you don’t risk forgetting anything important. Of course, you’ll need the full names of the couple and the wedding date—be sure to include the day of the week so guests don’t have to check a calendar to see if it’s a weekday or weekend affair.
Other Essential Details
Don’t forget to list the venue for the ceremony and the location of the reception—complete with full addresses in both cases.
Keeping It Simple
Simplicity is key when writing your invitations: it’s you, the couple, announcing your own union. Until recently, parents often handled this task, but these days couples tend to do it themselves—partly because people marry later in life than they used to.

How the Bride Should Enter
You can include the ceremony and reception details on the same page or, if space is tight, on a separate insert. As for phrasing, a straightforward line such as “We are delighted to invite you to our wedding on [date] at [time], to be held at [venue],” works perfectly. Alternatively, you can choose a joyful announcement of your upcoming nuptials.
Formal vs. Informal Invitations
The tone of your invitations should match the formality of your event. If you’re inviting someone you don’t know well—say, your company’s CEO—a more formal style is appropriate. For family and close friends, a friendly, personal tone adds warmth. To make your invitation even more memorable, you could include a riddle or a favorite photo.
Next Steps
Once your invitations are settled, you can focus on the rest of your planning—selecting music, arranging flowers, and, of course, booking the car that will whisk the bride to the altar. Have you had a chance to browse the Ghisu Car Rental fleet yet?
