Use this guide to find the right words and begin crafting a dreamy invitation that will take you from <\/span>wedding ceremony<\/span> to <\/span>wedding reception.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

How to Assemble Your <\/b>Romantic Wedding Invitation Wording<\/b>\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

Before you can add romantic touches to your <\/span>wedding invite wording<\/span>, you first need to know what to include. Here\u2019s everything you\u2019ll want to feature as part of your <\/span>romantic wedding invitation wording<\/span> \u2014 from the hosts to the <\/span>RSVPs<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Introduce the Hosts<\/b><\/h3>\n

In the past, it was tradition for a <\/span>bride\u2019s parents<\/span> to host the <\/span>wedding celebration<\/span>, so they\u2019d be listed on the <\/span>host line<\/span>. Now, it could be the two of you, or with one or both <\/span>sets of parents<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tailor your <\/span>host line<\/span> to honor who\u2019s hosting. A simple \u201c<\/span>Together with our families<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u201d is perfect if you\u2019re hosting together. If you\u2019re hosting solo, you can even skip this altogether and jump straight into something like \u201cWe\u2019d love to invite you to our wedding.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Make Your Request<\/b><\/h3>\n

After you\u2019ve noted the hosts, it\u2019s time to make your \u201cask\u201d and invite everyone on your<\/span> wedding guest list<\/a><\/strong> to your <\/span>big day<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lines like \u201cjoin us to celebrate the <\/span>marriage of their daughter<\/span>\/son\u201d work great if a <\/span>set of parents<\/span> is hosting. For a more <\/span>formal invitation<\/span>, \u201cWe request the <\/span>pleasure of your company<\/span>\u201d is a solid request line while \u201cPlease celebrate with us as we say our <\/span>I do<\/span>\u2019s\u201d is perfect for a more <\/span>casual wedding<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Share Your Names<\/b><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s time to celebrate the key people in all of this \u2014 you and your betrothed. Add both of your <\/span>full names<\/span> to the invite.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re following <\/span>traditional<\/span> wedding invitation etiquette<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, the suggestion is to put a <\/span>bride\u2019s name<\/span> before a groom\u2019s \u2014 mirroring who was hosting the celebration. However, you don\u2019t have to follow tradition. Alphabetical order works just fine or simply whichever order feels most natural to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Confirm the Date and Time<\/b><\/h3>\n

Next, share the <\/span>wedding date<\/span> and time with your guests. Be clear with how you write out the date and time. Include the year if it\u2019s not obvious, and spell out the month of the year if you have any international visits where dates are displayed the other way around. For the time, include an \u201c<\/span>o\u2019clock<\/span>\u201d or \u201ca.m.\u201d or \u201cp.m.\u201d if there\u2019s likely to be any confusion around the exact timing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Introduce the Venue<\/b><\/h3>\n

Be clear with your wedding venue location. Share the venue\u2019s name along with the city and state. For <\/span>destination weddings<\/a><\/strong>, include the country too. If you haven\u2019t settled on a venue yet, it\u2019s OK to simply list the general area.<\/span><\/p>\n

Avoid adding the full address and ZIP code here, as it can make your <\/span>wedding invitations<\/span> feel too cluttered. Instead, use our<\/span> details panel<\/a><\/strong> or your <\/span>wedding website<\/span> to share more details about your venue as well as travel tips, gift registries, and useful information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mention the <\/b>Dress Code<\/b><\/h3>\n

Include your <\/span>dress code <\/span>as part of your <\/span>wedding invitation<\/span>. This way, guests won\u2019t show up overdressed at a <\/span>casual wedding<\/span> or underdressed at a <\/span>formal wedding<\/span>. There are so many different<\/span> wedding <\/strong>dress codes<\/strong><\/span><\/a> \u2014 from white tie to relaxed casual \u2014 and most will work for a romantic wedding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ask Your Wedding Guests to <\/b>RSVP<\/b><\/h3>\n

Be sure to request an <\/span>RSVP<\/span> so you can plan ahead and get an accurate head count. For formal paper invites, include an <\/span>RSVP card<\/span> and stamped envelope so they can mail back their response. For a more contemporary ceremony, an email address or phone number works fine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make managing <\/span>RSVPs<\/span> even easier by sending<\/span> digital invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a> with Greenvelope. Your guests can respond in moments to <\/span>RSVP<\/span> and you can easily track them without waiting for the mail to arrive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Romantic Wedding Invitation Wording Examples<\/b><\/h2>\n

You know which details to include on your invitations, but pulling it all together can take some mastery \u2014 especially if you\u2019re going for a romantic theme across your invites and entire <\/span>wedding celebration<\/span>. Take a look at these wording <\/span>templates<\/span> and use them to inspire your own invites.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
