nickname on a shower/wedding invite?

We had a casual (beach) wedding. We used Cindy and Dex on the save-the-dates and Cynthia and Dexter on the invitations.

I'm also Jessica, but I never go by that except where legally required. Invitations and even our vows were Jessi.

My shower invitations say "Bethie"! My wedding invites are more formal and have my name as Elizabeth.

My DH is Anthony, but he has always gone by Tony. He was upset by the idea of using his formal name on invites because he never ever uses it. So we had everything say Michelle & Tony. We only used our full first and middle names once in the ceremony, when we were pronounced husband and wife. No one batted an eye.

My shower invites had "Faith" and "Ricky" -our more casual names. Our formal invitations had our full names on them: FirstName MiddleName1 Faith MaidenName and Richard MiddleName LastName.

I would use the nickname on STDs and shower invitations, but full name on invitations.

I would use the nickname on STDs and shower invitations, but full name on invitations.

My wedding invites said blackrock and uber....we use our nicknames for everything its how everyone knows us. you dont have to worry, your nickname will be just fine

Definitely use what you're more comfortable with, especially for a casual wedding! If you were having a formal, ball gown type deal then your full name wouldn't be out of place, but you want this to feel like you! My FH is a Christopher, but I've never once heard anyone call him that. Our invitations will say Chris because that's what he goes by.

Choose whatever feels right for you!

I didn't use my first name on my wedding invitation because most ppl think Markita ( which is actually my middle name) is my NAME.

My real name is Margaret. I decided for shower to be megan and invitations it will say Margaret
