I need help!! ASAP?

Question

OK ..... i am planning a wedding! The date is March 31st of this year! Dont ask why its so close! Anyway i want to make my own invites and i need help with the wording!! I dont know what it is supposed to say on the inside! Please Help!! I am going crazy!

Answer 1

It depends on who is paying. Check out the knot.com they have details on this stuff.

Example: ( if you and your fiance are paying)

Together with their parents
your name
and
his name
request the honor of your presence
as they begin their new lives together
where
when
r.s.v.p info

There are many different ways to go about this, check out the website and see what you like best.

Answer 2

It says nothing on the inside. All of the information goes on the outside. Who is requesting their presence, the date, where it is happening, what time..etc. Then inside you place a piece of tissue, and a reception invite, along with a reception response card. It is sooooo confusing. I would go and order them if I were you. And you are supposed to send them out, 6 weeks before the wedding and have all responses back 3 weeks from the wedding. Good Luck!! You are wayyyyy braver than I was:)

Answer 3

You can go to a local card shop that sells wedding invitations and ask to see a wedding invite book (i.e. Carlson Craft) and it should have samples of everything from the frnt of the card to the inside. Also, you might search Carlson Craft or wedding invitations in general and just take from what you see in the examples. Good luck!

Answer 4

Thats so funny that I found this question because I ordered my invatations today. Go to the website and they have different sample if its the bride and groom doing the wedding or the grooms parents or the brides parents or both. Look at these theyre helpful. Just remember to make extra copies for mistakes. ALso if you go to Office Max or Wal-Mart they have invatation packages that come with the invatation and response cards and such. THey have samples of how to do the wording also

Answer 5

Head over to the library and check out a book on wedding planning and etiquette. You're going to have a lot more questions like this, and a book will be helpful.

Answer 6

There are a lot of ways to word your invitation. You can go basic & traditional, or make it more of a poem or something fun. Just keep in mind that your invitation sets the tone of your wedding & gives your gets an idea of how formal the wedding is.

Answer 8

Um. Why do you need to get married so quickly? Shotgun? Iraq? Whatever the reason, getting married is susposed to be a happy time, not a "I'm going pull out my hair and pass out" time. Holy. No one will care if you move it up a few months. Then go and do some bridal shops and read some magazines to get some ideas.

Answer 9

I can write the wording for you if you tell me info about the wedding and its hosts, whether it is in a house of worship, whther the parents are alive or deceased and whther the paent are divorced, etc.

Also you can try this guide (see left column on page):
