THE 'CORRECT' WAY TO WORD YOUR WEDDING INVITATIONS
So there's a correct way to word my wedding invitations? Well actually yes and no. The way you word your wedding invitations is entirely up to you but there are a few things that some people struggle with. Oh really? What kind of things? It mainly comes down to who is paying for the wedding. This can affect how you word your wedding invitation in some cases. Tell me more... Ok, so lets say your parent are paying for the entire wedding. They may want this reflected in the way the invitation is worded. For example they may wish to be seen as doing the inviting. Like this...
Or they may just be very generous and not bothered at all about having their names on your invitation. I see, so are there any other things to note? Yes, this is just one of a number of different scenarios that may affect the way your wedding invitation is worded. For instance both sets of parent may be contributing to the wedding costs, other family members, grandparents etc., may be involved or the couple may be forking out for the whole shebang themselves... or a combination of all of the above might be the case. Sheesh! Sounds complicated! Well families can be complicated but luckily wording your wedding invitation needn't be. There are a number of well established openings to your wording that will help you cover the bases. Great, any examples? Sure, you're in luck. I've created a handy little infographic covering the openings used in the various situations. It's almost like you planned this! Hah, yes it is. It's worth bearing in mind that these are purely guidelines and only cover the traditional ways of opening the wording of your wedding invitation. As long as you have covered the essential information the rest is really style and tone. So what are the essentials and which bits are style and tone? Well the essential things are..
As long as you've covered the who, when and where the rest can be as formal or as relaxed as you wish. Excellent, do you have any examples of formal v's informal? I'm glad you asked! I have prepared a guide to wording your wedding invitations. It covers some examples of the more formal ways of wording through to some of the more relaxed and informal. Great how do I see that?

It’s a celebration of your love not an event you’re planning. I think this is the most important thing to remember when you are in the midst of planning your wedding. It’s all to easy to get caught up in pinterest, amazing real wedding, instagram induced madness. (Main image by The Hendrys. My cousin Jenni and her husband Mo. So much love in this image!) Yes you’ll want your wedding to be just how you want it and you may have been planning it in your head for years but sometimes you need to take a step back and realise what it is you are doing and why. You’ve found ‘the one’, the love of your life and the person you want to spend the rest of it with. You love each other so much you want the most important people in your life to gather together and witness you declaring your commitment to one another. It’s a beautiful thing. (Image by Caro Weiss. This couple epitomise what it means to celebrate your love for each other!) In my line of work I meet a lot of couples. Quite often they describe the 'stress’ of planning their wedding. How there’s 'so much to do’ and 'so much to think about’. Having been there myself I empathise and sympathise and it is true, planning a wedding can be quite a daunting task. I often look at it like a huge box of chocolates (another beautiful thing). If you think about eating the whole lot it would make you sick (yet I keep giving it a go) but one or two (maybe three) at a time is a real pleasure. Take the same approach to your wedding planning. Small steps at a time and breaking things down to manageable chunks will help keep the stress levels down. (Image by Eric-Rene Penroy. These guys sharing a moment of peace together is utterly stunning!) There will be setbacks and disappointments. There may be tears. Yes, you won’t get everything you want, it’s unavoidable. That amazing photographer whose images you’ve lusted over is already booked, the band you imagined yourself dancing the night away to are unavailable. It would be easy to get upset over these things and lose a bit of perspective. At these times just remember, the most important person in your world will be there saying 'I do’ in front of your closest friends and family. That’s the only thing that really matters. (Image by Jo Donaldson Photography. A serene moment of tenderness really defines what marriage is all about.) So I wish you all the luck in the world with your wedding planning journey and I sincerely hope that your wedding day turns out to be everything you dreamed it would be and more. But more than that I wish you all the happiness in the world in your married life and future together. from Com Bossa, Luxury Wedding Stationery - Com Bossa Blog https://www.combossaweddinginvitations.co.uk/blogs/news/the-single-best-piece-of-wedding-advice-youll-ever-read via IFTTT

So you’ve made it official, tied the knot, said your ‘I do’s’ and are now officially a married couple. Now that the confetti has landed it’s time to head off for a celebratory meal and a drink or two at your wedding reception. As you’re here I’m going to assume that you are a style savvy individual who appreciates that sometimes it’s the little touches and flourishes that really make something special. As my specialist subject is stationery I'll stick to what I know best and dispense some top tips on using 'on the day stationery’ to lift your reception to another level. All with the help of some luscious images from the wedding of Jennifer and Mark. Let’s go on a little journey together. The same journey your guests will make when joining you to eat, drink and be merry in celebrating your joyous union. So to the table plan… This is the first piece of your wedding reception stationery your guests will encounter. Naturally they’d like to know where to find their seat. As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before I’m not big on bling so Rococo Mirrors adorned with glittery cards will not be featuring here. I think it’s important to remember the function of a table plan. It needs to be clear, well laid out and easy to understand. If it’s too fussy or over stylised it will lead to your guests spending time trying to work out where they are seated, the resulting bottle neck as people queue behind them is not the most auspicious start. Where’s table 9? Now that Auntie Belle knows which table she’s sitting at she’ll be scanning the room for a clue. This is where your table number/name cards come in. Again these should be really easy to spot and read from a distance and ideally should be printed on both sides for viewing from various approaches ( after a couple of glasses guests may well use the facilities and have to make their way back to the table for the speeches). Oh look it’s got my name on it! Next stop on our little voyage to the main event is the humble place card. These take many forms but the function is to let each guest know their position at the table. You can use first names only or both first and surnames. It worth having a look through your guest list to see how many Johns and Jen’s you have before deciding to go first name only. I’m quite hungry, are you? Okay so are we sitting comfortably? Good, it’s time to peruse the menu. As many venues provide a set wedding menu this may simply serve to whet the appetite and allow your guests to marvel at the fabulous feast about to be set out before them. Your wedding reception stationery can really add to the styling of your room and the experience of your guests. Many venues provide some or all of the items but it has to be said that the quality varies and is usually only what the venue can produce in-house. I know you’ll have spent considerable time and effort in putting your individual style into every element of your wedding so let us not overlook the humble menu, place card and table plan.

So to the table plan...This is the first piece of your wedding reception stationery your guests will encounter. Naturally they'd like to know where to find their seat. As I'm sure I've mentioned before I'm not big on bling so Rococo Mirrors adorned with glittery cards will not be featuring here. I think it's important to remember the function of a table plan. It needs to be clear, well laid out and easy to understand. If it's too fussy or over stylised it will lead to your guests spending time trying to work out where they are seated, the resulting bottle neck as people queue behind them is not the most auspicious start. Where's table 9?Now that Auntie Belle knows which table she's sitting at she'll be scanning the room for a clue. This is where your table number/name cards come in. Again these should be really easy to spot and read from a distance and ideally should be printed on both sides for viewing from various approaches ( after a couple of glasses guests may well use the facilities and have to make their way back to the table for the speeches). Oh look it's got my name on it!Next stop on our little voyage to the main event is the humble place card. These take many forms but the function is to let each guest know their position at the table. You can use first names only or both first and surnames. It worth having a look through your guest list to see how many Johns and Jen's you have before deciding to go first name only. I'm quite hungry, are you?Okay so are we sitting comfortably? Good, it's time to peruse the menu. As many venues provide a set wedding menu this may simply serve to whet the appetite and allow your guests to marvel at the fabulous feast about to be set out before them. Your wedding reception stationery can really add to the styling of your room and the experience of your guests. Many venues provide some or all of the items but it has to be said that the quality varies and is usually only what the venue can produce in-house. I know you'll have spent considerable time and effort in putting your individual style into every element of your wedding so let us not overlook the humble menu, place card and table plan.
