Wedding Invitation wording

Lauren, on August 29, 2018 at 1:16 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 6
Hello all!
My first time asking for advise o man here. So my fiancé and I are basically paying for everything ourselves. Out of pocket, so how do we word our wedding invitations? There is a lot of advise online, but I figured someone on her has had to do this!
thank you!

    We're in the same boat and we're probably doing something like "you are cordially invited to the wedding of" or "celebrate the wedding of"

    Ours had just our first names in a fancy font at the top and then said "invite you to their wedding" etc. Here is the link for an example.

    We said:

    "With Great Joy you are invited to celebrate the marriage of me and FH"

    Hi Lauren! All of the above comments have great wordings, I would go with something short and sweet like "John Smith And Jane Doe cordially invite you to their wedding..." I found a great article that breaks down the wording even more, I'll link it below!

    The wording will depend on how formal the wedding is as well as if it is in a church or other venue. Usually the phrase "the honor of your presence" is used for church weddings, whereas, "the pleasure of your company" is usually used for non-church weddings. Here was our invitation.
