Your wedding day is probably the most important day of your adult life, and together, you and your fiancé will be embarking on a journey to last the rest of your life, knowing in your heart that he or she is the right one for you, in heart, body and soul. With such strong emotion surrounding this joyous occasion, it’s only right that you word your wedding invitation in a special way that conveys this most important information to all your guests.
When it comes to wording your wedding invitations, it also important to make sure that correct wedding etiquette and courtesy is observed at all costs. How is your wedding invitations etiquette broken down? Well, it involves certain areas which include the wedding invitation wording, addressing the invitees, including the RSVP details, and of course when the wedding invitations should be sent out. However, in this installment, we shall look into how a wedding invitation should be worded.
When it comes to wording wedding invitations, DreamDay Invitations know a thing or two on this subject. Since a wedding is a formal event, especially if you are hosting in a hall or a ballroom, then the due respect must be paid to this momentous occasion and that can be implied via the wording of the invite.

The above examples of invitation wording for your wedding include that of the bride’s and groom’s parents inviting, the bride and groom inviting, the bride’s parents inviting and the groom’s parents inviting respectively. These are also examples of how a wedding invitation should be worded, in an elegant manner adhering to etiquette standards. Things like spelling out numbers which are lower in value to that of twenty, and making sure that when if you are inviting a couple where the wife has kept her maiden name, her name should be mentioned before that of the husband. This also applied if the wife has a title and should be joined with that of the husband with an “and” in the manner “Dr. Jane Smith and Mr. John Smith are cordially invited…” These are some of the ways in which invitation wording etiquette can be used to invite your guests to your wedding.

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, so you deserve to have it look exactly the way you want. Your guests will also like to know how you would like them to dress to make sure they feel comfortable and wear clothes that are appropriate to the occasion and theme.
No bride and groom wants to see anyone wear singlets, shorts and thongs to their special wedding event, and having a guest turn up casually dressed to a formal wedding for example could make them feel very uncomfortable and out of place, and may ruin the event for them entirely, and your photos!
Pictured above are DreamDay Invitations in ‘Enchanted Wave’, ‘Semtimental Moment’, and ‘Frangipani Dream’.
Your dress code is usually included as part of the body of your wedding invitation wording and is generally placed along with the R.S.V.P. information at the bottom of the invitation. Dreamday Invitations has made allowances for dress code to be added easily to the wording of each invitation. Read the rest of this entry →

The wording on your Dreamday Wedding Invitations is a crucial part of your invitation, as this is how you are going to inform your guests of the important information they need to help celebrate your special wedding day with you.

You need, firstly, to establish whose names will appear as hosting the wedding and issuing the invitations. Will it be the Brides parents alone hosting and paying for the wedding, or are both the bride’s parents and the groom’s parents sharing the costs equally?

Would you like to mention a deceased parent or step parent? Other examples are available for viewing in other articles on our website. Read the rest of this entry →
