There are some important considerations that go into a wedding invitation, including etiquette. Choosing the right wording for the moment, making clear who&#8217;s invited, and ensuring essential details make it into the invite all require attention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since it&#8217;s your big day, you can choose how much you want to follow traditional wedding invitation etiquette, but however you choose to celebrate, there are a few things to keep in mind when crafting your invite. Whether you&#8217;re hosting a traditional wedding or throwing a more modern event, this guide will help you create the perfect wedding invitation.<\/span><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><b>Wedding Invitation Etiquette<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11335\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bride-and-groom-dancing-with-gold-confetti.jpeg\" alt=\"Bride and groom dancing while gold confetti falls around them\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bride-and-groom-dancing-with-gold-confetti.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bride-and-groom-dancing-with-gold-confetti-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/bride-and-groom-dancing-with-gold-confetti-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following wedding invitation etiquette means different things to different couples. For some couples who love tradition, sticking to wedding etiquette rules can make the day more special. For other couples, loosely following the rules allows them to make the day more flexible and personal. You get to choose how you want to celebrate, so understand that these &#8220;rules&#8221; are more of a guide and you decide how they fit into your big day. Below, you&#8217;ll find tips on what to include in your invite, how to word them, and basic wedding invitation etiquette.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What to Include<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your wedding invitation should include all the information wedding guests need to know, such as where and when to show up and how to dress. Start with a line inviting guests to the wedding and include the names of the happy couple.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Per wedding invitation etiquette, the invite should be sent no later than <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bustle.com\/wellness\/when-should-you-send-wedding-invitations-save-the-dates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">8\u201312 weeks<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before the wedding ceremony. You should send them earlier if you&#8217;re having a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/destination-wedding-ideas\">destination wedding<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so guests have enough time to make travel arrangements. The RSVP date should be at least two weeks before the wedding. This gives you time to let vendors like the caterer know your final guest count.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some things to include when writing your wedding invitation:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Name of the couple and anyone else hosting the event (for example, the bride&#8217;s parents or the parents of the couple)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Date, time, and location of the ceremony\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reception card or a line indicating the time and location of the reception, if different from the ceremony<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who&#8217;s invited (the whole family, just the adults, or a plus one)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Response card or an RSVP card and an inner envelope and RSVP date<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dress code<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wedding website (Note: Don&#8217;t link directly to the registry information. Guests can find the details on the wedding website or your wedding party members can spread the word)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Wording Tips for Formal and Informal Weddings<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to wedding invitation etiquette and names on invitations, the formality should match the wedding. If you&#8217;re hosting a formal wedding, make sure to write out full names and titles, such as Doctor Jordan Lueder or Colonel John Smith. You can also use your middle name as well as the middle name of your future spouse to make the invite more formal. The groom&#8217;s name or male host name is traditionally listed first.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid using abbreviations on formal invitations. For a small casual wedding, elopement, or <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/minimony\">minimony<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> where you&#8217;re inviting only your best friend or close family member, you can use first names or nicknames, if desired.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same rules apply to the wedding date, time, and location. Write out the full date and time \u2014 December ninth two thousand twenty-three at four o&#8217;clock \u2014 for a formal wedding. For a casual wedding, you can say something like \u201cJune 10th, 2023\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If someone besides the couple is hosting or paying for the wedding, it&#8217;s good etiquette to include their names on the invite. This can include one set of parents hosting or both parents hosting. Again, use full names for formal invitations. If the couple hosting is married, use the word \u201cand\u201d in between their names. If they are unmarried, list their names on two separate lines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choosing the right wording also makes a difference when creating a stunning wedding invitation. Read on to learn more about wedding invitation wording, and find some inspiration for your invite.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Wedding Invitation Wording Ideas<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wedding invitation etiquette dictates that the way you word your invitations should reflect the type of event you\u2019re hosting. If you&#8217;re having a black-tie affair, the wording should be formal and professional. If you&#8217;re hosting a laid-back elopement, you can use more casual language in the invitation.
