Bride or Groom's name on Invite??!!!

Posted in Etiquette and Advice 22

My bestfriend just got her invitations done and I don't know why but for the first time I noticed that her name was first. I have never seen a bride's name first on invites and programs at weddings...maybe I am just stuck in the days? lol!! What do you think? Is there a "right" way or anything goes...

What do you think? Is there a "right" way or anything goes these days?

    Woman always goes first.

    "...and I didn't want people to also question mine invite as I know my FH will want his name first."

    I have never been invited to a wedding where the groom has his name first. If this something in your FH's culture, or does he just want to be first because he wants to be?

    I don't think people will say anything to you about it (probably), but people might question it. More in a "huh, that's weird" kind of way, though. But yeah, anyone who knows wedding etiquette will pretty much expect the bride to be listed first.
