Hello, I'm struggling with how to word our wedding invitations. We're having a smaller ceremony, and then a larger reception following it, so we'll need 2 separate invitations, 1 for ceremony + reception and 1 for reception only. Also, we would like to indicate that it is an adults only event (even though the reception is at a pub, we'd still like to be clear) and we would also like to indicate that it's hors d'oeuvres only... how can we accomplish all that in a nicely worded invitation? We are hosting it ourselves, so we'd like to start with "Bride and Groom, Together with their families, invite you to celebrate..." Help!

my fiance and I are getting married next spring - he has a large family his mother is one of 8 kids - with a number of kids of their own (nearly all despite all living in a small town he isn't close with at all). I come from a split family - my father (Who has passed away) came from a family of 8 - however i was only close to one of his sisters and her children. my mother is one of only 4 - i grew up with my cousins closely - adding cousins we both hardly know brings the count up an additional 30-50 people depending on recent engagements in the next year- is there a way to just invite cousins we're close to but not all of them?

I am getting married in June. I sent out our save-the-dates in September and after we sent them out, my fiancé’s father and stepmother are getting divorced. It will be finalized in two months. Her family is on the guest list and received save-the-date cards. I have never met them and my fiancé is not close to them. Are we obligated to send them invitations or because of the circumstances will they understand if they are no longer invited to the wedding?

HELP! Long story, I'll try to stick with the short version...My boyfriend and I have been involved in a serious relationship for 1.5 years (living together 7 months) and his brother didn't invite me to his out of state wedding over valentines day weekend. I have never met his family, since they are spread throughout the country and i work in the medical profession (very hard to take time off), but they certainly know of me, know my whole name, are very aware that we live together, and have no reason to dislike me whatsoever. His mother even asks everytime she calls if she'll finally get to meet me at the wedding. The invitation was addressed to our home with only his name on it. The inner envelope was left blank with only one space for his dinner request. I am seriously confused and hurt about this. Is this common? Should i be upset with my boyfriend, or just accept the fact that his family has some obvious issues? At this point, even if it was an oversight, i feel that i wouldn't attend if they personally invited me with a strip-o-gram. He called his brother and he stated that they sent all invitations, even to married couples, addressed in the same fashion. Am i crazy for being offended? Should i attend even tho i feel as if i wasn't truely invited?

I have a problem. I am assisting my brother with preparing and sending wedding invitations to guests for his upcoming wedding. The problem is that the wedding was previously postponed due to a death in our immediate family. The invitiations were sent out to all the guest for the original date. We informed the guests of the postponement and once a new date was chosen, invitations would be forthcoming. Now my brother's fiance wants to send invitations to some of the guest inviting them to the wedding and reception to follow and other guests to the dance itself. I explained to my brother that this is a tremendous breach in ettiquette. You cannot invite some guests to attend the ceremony and reception/dance and others just to the dance when you previously invited all of them to the wedding/reception initially. His explaination would be that the invite for the dance only would include Hors' Dourves. I am paying for the reception as a gift to my brother. I am greatly upset as this does not seem proper. I have provided more than enough money to cover all the expenses for the original number of guests and am at a cross-roads with this new revelation. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

we are having a destination wedding (of sorts) about 2 hours from our home. we are only inviting immediate family (along with grandparents) and a few close friends (2 for each of us). i am not sure what to do about extended family, such as aunts and uncles, who will not be invited (and will probably wonder why). should we send out an announcement that we are getting married, explain that it will be a very small ceremony and reception, and ask for their prayers on that day? we don't want to leave them in the dark about the wedding, but we don't want to invite them either...thus resulting in a large wedding. how do we approach this?

What is the proper way to write up a response card to include meal choices. There are 3 of them. Also under 2 yrs. old, no charge, children between 2-12 yrs. one menu only and those 12 and up are adults and should make a meal selection. The card is the standard size and I would appreciate knowing the correct way to include all this information. Thanks.

I have been invited to the large formal wedding of the daughter of a close friend. The invitation states "and Guest"; may I assume I may bring whomever I wish, that I am not limited to a "date" per se? I would like to bring a same-sex friend as I do not have a man in my life right now.

My fiance and I are getting married in March (just a small civil ceremony at the courthouse) and we're inviting about 10 people (very close friends and parents) and afterwards we're having a small party at our home (more a party but in celebration of our nuptuals) and then in August we'll be having a more formal reception with more people but again at our home and I'm wondering if I should send out invitations for the March wedding and also for the August reception? If so, how would I word them? Thanks!

i'm italian and i'm getting married with a vietnamese guy, with british cityzenship. we both live in Lonon and our common friends are uk. our wedding will be in Italy and most of the guests will be italian, then a few Vietnamese english seaker anyway, and about 50 English people. the problem is how to find a proper wording for the invitations. i would love to have one in the two languages, italian and english. it is not a problem for the invitation card to the reception as i can do the two languages on the two opposite sides. the problem is the invitation for the church. in italian we use a folded invitation where on one side there are mentioned the bride's parents who announce the wedding of the daughter with the XX men and on the other side, mirrored, the groom's parents etcc... one of the problem is that the italian use the wording "aanounce" the wedding while the English say is "request the pleasure tec..". would it make sense to use the same sentence in italian and english, one above the other, on one side of the invitation for the bride's parents, mirrored for the groom's parents. but i would like to use a wording that refer to announcements for both languages. would it make sense in English. or is it better to use two different invitations?

We are trying to figure out the proper wording for the invitations. My fiance would like his parents to be named on it, which is fine. The dilemma is that his mom and dad are divorced and have been for about 10 years. From the sounds of it, it was an ugly divorce. She is now happily remarried and has been for 2 years which made my fiance 21 when they got married. They don't call him dad.
My parents think that we should just put son of... and then his mom's name and dad's name. His mom would like her new husbands name on it. They are helping pay for alcohol and transportation. I have been going back and forth on this. Technically he is not the father of my fiance but obviously will be around for a very long time. Do I put Mr. and Mrs... and then underneath put his biological dad? Is this proper etiquette?

My finace and I are planning to have our wedding in the Twin Cities August of 2010, however both of our families are from out of town (Wisconsin and Maryland), therefore we are assuming a lot of people will not be able to attend. The reception hall we want has a min of 125 and max of 240. Is there a recommended way to send out save the date cards and invitations in stages in reaction to how many people do or don't RSVP?

We'd like to know if it is appropriate to request that guests make an entree selection when they RSVP by phone (the luncheon is in 3 weeks). I'd like to include a separate RSVP card in the invitation, but I am not sure how to state the request properly. Thank you very much for your help.

I am a 21 year old going to be married in 2 months. My fiance and I are having a small dessert and punch reception afterward and the space is limited. The problem I am having is how to address the invitations for a set of parents. I am including 13 year olds and up. Mostly because a few girls were invited to the shower. However one family has four children including two toddlers, their oldest is 13 years old. How do I deal with addressing the invitation to them and their oldest, I have no clue what to do?

My mother and step father are paying for the majority of the wedding but my father and his girlfriend are paying for part of the reception. I would also like to include the grooms parents (they are paying for the rehearsal) so there are no hurt feelings. How do I include my dad's girlfriend on the invitation (it is her tax return check that they are using to pay for part of the reception)? They have been together for years and she has stuck with him through some really tough times so I would like her included on the invitation. Is that weird to include her since they are not married and neither plan on ever getting married again?

My husband and I received an invitation to a wedding in November. My daughter and her husband also received their invitation.
My son still lives and home and I am sure he was to be included; however, his name did not appear on our invitation.
How do I address this ~ how do I ask the couple if my son was an oversight. I am in an awkward situation.

Tried Miss Manners with no response, so now I'll try you! Second marriage for both of us. We'd like immediate family only. How do we inform those family and friends we didn't invite that we are getting married without appearing rude that they weren't invited? Should we send them something before the wedding, or just a card later on saying, 'We got married!'
|

My dad is paying for the majority of my wedding. He and my mom are separated and both remarried. I don't know how to word the invite. My dad is paying not my step mom. But I don't want to mention her without mentioning my real mom. Then if one step parent is mentioned I need to mention the other. The ceremony is going to be about 6 miles from the reception. And it is a church wedding. What is a propper way to word my invitation?

WHAT IS THE PROPER WAY TO WORD INVITATIONS FOR A 25TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY RECEPTION, CONCERNING GIFTS? DO YOU JUST NOT MENTION ANYTHING, DO YOU PUT "NO GIFTS PLEASE", I HAVE SEEN IN STORES WHAT THEY CALL A "WISH BOX" WHERE GUEST CAN WRITE A MESSAGE AND GIVE MONEY IF THEY WISH. I FEEL LIKE THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANYTHING MENTIONED. IF GUEST WANT TO BRING A GIFT THAT IS FINE, IF THEY DON'T THAT IS FINE TOO. WHAT DO YOU SAY?
|

My fiance and I have been together for 10 years. We've lived with each other over 6 of those years. We have EVERYTHING we could possible want and would like to politely decline any gifts. We just want our closest friends and family to enjoy the wedding and the evening. How do we do this and phrase it? Should we include some phrasing on the invitation, a separate card included in the invitation, or something else? Thanks for your advise!

How do I invite my future brother-in-law and his girlfriend? Here are the facts:
They've been dating for a number of years.
They aren't engaged or living together.
It doesn't seem like he is all that interested.
I sense a lot of pressure from the family for them to get engaged.
The gf and I are civil but she is manipulative and I dislike her immensely.
She already had the audacity to yell at me for only making her a question mark on my own (rough draft) guest list (which she found after going through my personal docs).
I don't want to address the invite to him and her because I am of view that it should be his decision who to invite to join him at our wedding.
I want to address it to him personally plus a guest.
Can I do this? Or will it be really rude to not address it to both of them?

Is there a way the grooms parents names can be mentioned in the wedding invitation without implying they are hosting the wedding and reception if they aren't. Can they be mentioned further down in the body of the invitation under future husbands name as "Mr. and Mrs. Grooms Parents" ? Is this a major etiquette mistake? Thanks

My daughter is getting married in October - she wants to invite some cousins from her home town area that she would recognize on sight. Her grandmother is upset because she does not want to invite cousins from a neighboring town that she would not recognize on sight. Most cousins she wants to invite are from her grandfather's side of the family. Venue will not allow a lot of people and she is already about at her limit. Is it proper to invite some relatives and not others in the same family?

My fiance and I are planning to get married in Jamaica June 2009. We are planning on having his mother, brother and sister accompany us along with our children (we have 2 young sons). When we return we are planning on having a barbeque to celebrate with friends on the July 4 weekend.
I have a 4 part question.
1) How soon should we send announcements/invitations (since the barbeque is so soon after our return)?
2) How should they be worded?
3) Is it appropriate to register for gifts? and 4) If so should the registry info be included with the announcement/invite?
Thank you so very much for your help.

She's divorced with a new boyfried and she also has 2 children that live at home with her. Would I address the invite to Ms. Smith, Amy, Chad, and guest? How do I word it so it's clear her boyfriend is welcome but we don't want the kids bringing dates?

My finance is deployed in the middle east right now, due to come home in February for Mid-leave. We are planning just a family court house wedding at that time and planning a formal ceremony the same day the following year when he is home for good! I am planning on sending out an announcement, but not sure if I should state in that announcement that we are planning a formal vow-renewal the following year. It is our first marriage for the both of us and really would like to make a big deal about it the following year, but don't want to wait until that time for the actual marriage. Also dont have the time nor finances to do that is February. Any advice on how to approach this in a tactful manner, also one that people will understand?

I will be having the wedding at the family home of my father. My father and his siblings (4 brothers and 2 sisters in total) grew up in this house. Only 2 of the uncles live there now. Since my 2 uncles live there, then my father wants the wedding invitations to be worded such that those 2 uncles invite everyone to the house for the wedding, to show respect. I think it should be my parents who invite everyone to the wedding.
What do you think? The family home belongs to all of the siblings, not just the 2 uncles. Wouldn't the other uncle feel left out? Shouldn't it be my parents who invite everyone?

A friend of many years recently announced her oldest child was getting married. At the time, we were with a few of our mutual friends. I said, "Congratulations, I want to come to the wedding!" I was shocked by her response. She said, "You don't know my child personally, why should you be invited?" I was both embarrassed and hurt by her response. Was I out of line for asking if I would be included as a guest? We do a lot of things together on a social basis and I thought we were close friends. To say the least, it was awkward. My family always included friends of the family in their invitations.

I am getting married in May in St. Thomas. When we return we are having a very casual reception with a tropical/beach theme. It is on a Saturday evening starting at 7:00pm. Is it okay to serve heavy hors d'oeuvres, dessert, beer/wine & soda? If so, how should the invite be addressed? Lite reception? Hors d'oeuvres reception? My future husband says that sounds cheap....

My son is getting married in December. We live in a small town and he is getting married in another city. We are sending formal invitations. The wife of the Governor of our state is hosting a bridal tea at the Governor's Mansion. Would it be wrong to invite some people that are not getting a wedding invitation? I always thought if you did not receive an invitation you were not obligated to send a gift.

We are on a very limited budget for our daughters wedding. We have done the invitations ourselves but I'm unsure (now tht they are done) how bad this really is going to look. I failed to but on the bottom of the response card that the reception follows but there are response cards included. Will it be assumed that they are invited to the entire evenings events. Also we printed the address as opposed to hand writing is that to tacky.
One last thing, my daughter in trying to help put everyones first names on the inner envelopes instead of Mr. & Mrs.
So have we really messed this up?

I just got engaged and we are planning for a Fall 2008 wedding.

My husband and I just received the printed wedding invitation to our son's wedding taking place on September 29. His biological father is deceased and I remarried 17 years ago. My current husband has pretty much raised my son. Our names were left off the wedding invitation. The friends we have invited to the wedding do not know my son's last name is different than my husband and mine, hence they will not have a clue who the bride and groom are and now won't be coming to the wedding. Is there anything we can do at this late date to fix this situation? Isn't it most common to have both the bride and the groom's parents on an invitation?
|

My mother and father have been divorced for about 6 years now. But on September 14th they are getting remarried. I need to know what the best wording would be for the invatations.

My fiance and I moved in together a few months ago and we are getting married in August. We sent out invitations to everyone in the bridal party as well as the parents of the groom and individually to the parents of the bride who are divorced. We even sent one to ourselves and we did this because we thought everyone would like a stamped invitation as a keepsake.
The father of the bride is paying for the wedding. Did we do anything wrong or socially incorrect?
|
| |
|
My son is getting married, 28 years old. His father and I divorced 18 years ago, his father is deceased 10 years ago. Father was not part of sons life after divorce. I recently remarried. It doesn't seem appropriate to have MR. & MRs John Doe on the invitation since Mr. is new to my sons life. Should it be Mrs. John Doe or Mrs. Jane Doe on the invitation. I am assuming MR. & Mrs. is definitely not right.
|
| |
|
Could you provide better & more formal wording for the "step-mother" on the invitations we will be sending out?

My husband and I decided that we wanted to become members of a church and be baptized. So, since we didn’t have the money at the time to have a large wedding, we were married by a judge in September of 2006. We have only told people at the church and our immediate family that we are married. However, we are starting to feel guilty that the rest of our family and friends do not know that we’re married. We have already began booking vendors for our “official” wedding ceremony and reception scheduled for May of 2008. Is there some “untacky” way to let all of our guests know that we’re legally married? We want to have a full wedding ceremony and reception with all the details, but I don’t want only ¼ of the guests to know that we’re already married. Would it be terribly tacky to send out save the date invitations right now that casually inform our guests that we had a civil marriage at the courthouse. I’ve always wanted a dream wedding, but I’m afraid of the ettiquette problems that I’m encountering. I would appreciate any advice that you could give. Thank you!

I need to know what all should be included in the envelopes for the invitations i.e. maps, response cards, etc. I am having a pretty standard wedding, outdoor ceremony with a reception to follow. Thank you

My finance and I are officially getting married with only a few family members attending. This will be the second marriage for both of us. We are then going to have a party to celebrate our marriage (nothing fancy). What would be the appropriate way to put "no gifts" on the invatation?

The bride's parents are hosting the wedding and reception. When making the invitation is it necessary to include the groom's parents names?
|

If the Groom's Father is deceased and his Mother did not remarry how should the invitation be worded??
Mrs. James Smith or Mrs. Judy Smith????

Hello,
My husband and I have been married for 21 years. He has two children from a previous marriage. His ex-wife never remarried. Now, their son is getting married.
His fiancee's parents are divorced, neither is remarried yet but the mom is engaged, not sure if she will be married before this marriage happens or not.
Contributing to the wedding are:
The bride's divorced parents, my husband and I, his ex-wife, and the bride and groom.
How do we write the wedding invitations?
Can you give us a couple examples just in case the brides mom gets married before the invitations are done?
Also, the bride to be has asked me to make her a small 2-tiered cake that the groom and her can cut. They are having cheesecake for dessert. Can I just frost it white with their monograms on the cake??? I am not artistic but honored that she asked me. I don't know what to do.
I NEED YOUR ADVICE ASAP!
Thanks!

I have a question for invitation address wording. I am inviting a family, where the wife did not take her husbands name. The husband had a PHD but no one ever calls him doctor or anything professional. They also have a daughter that has the husbands last name. I'm not sure how to address them without using too many "ands". Please help! Thank you!

My husband and I are doing all the work in hosting for my parents, a 50th Wedding Anniversary party combined with an 80th Birthday party for my dad. My brother, who has been difficult to work with, is contributing a small amount financially. How do I handle the wording on the invitations?
