Wedding invitations are very important to
inform family, companion, and friends about the wedding. Wedding invitations
should be made with interesting and unique thus giving the impression to the
recipient. For that you should pay attention to the beauty of your invitation
card. But there is something more important that the look, namely the words on wedding invitation.
Sometimes people are confused how to write
everything in the wedding invitations. From the past until now, there are still
some things that will be retained to be written on the invitation. But the
manner of writing and the diction may change. Even so, some important etiquette
of writing wedding
invitations you should not miss. Among them are:
Writing of the name; you must write the full
name of all the people on the invitation. That is the name of the bride and
groom, their parent’s names also as hosts. It's better if you also include the
title, especially for the doctor and the military people. Write clearly without
the use of abbreviations, except for Mr.., Mrs.., Or Ms. Consider the following
example:
Mr. and Mrs. Steven Adams
Request the honor of your
presence
At the marriage of Their
daughter
Esther Nancy Adams
To
Justin Taylor
Son of Mr.. William Taylor
and Mr.
and Mrs. Oscar Wright
If you invite a family, make sure the oldest
son got the invitation in his own name. The names of the other children could
be written after their parents names. Example:
Mr. and Mrs. Smith
David, Albert, Maggie, and
Anne
Writing
as above is more polite than you write "... and family" on your
invitation.
Request line; it is important to request the
presence of the guests at your wedding. For formal occasions, usually using the
words, "request the honor of your presence". But for semi-formal
event, a lot of options other words, such as: "invite you to share Their
Joy", and many more. Especially if the wedding was held outside the place
of worship, then the words commonly used request is, "the pleasure of your
company".
The last thing you should pay attention is the
wedding details. Such as the time of wedding, date, and location of the
wedding. Make sure you write these details with complete and clear so as not to
confuse the guests. Street name, city or district should have written
completely, do not use any abbreviations.
