There are certain rules of wedding invitation etiquette that must be followed when planning a formal event. While we include several guidelines below, local wedding invitation vendors are usually happy to share their extensive knowledge about all things related to wedding invitation etiquette, and can be extremely valuable to first time couples who want their weddings to be perfect.  

Wedding Invitation Etiquette Tip #1

The family that hosts or pays for the wedding normally sends the invitations.

Wedding Invitation Etiquette Tip #2

When writing your invitations, be sure to write out the recipient's name in full. If you are not certain about the spelling of a middle name, leave it out entirely rather than writing a middle initial.

Wedding Invitation Etiquette Tip #3

When writing your invitations, be sure to completely spell out all words, including date, year, hour, and address.  

Wedding Invitation Etiquette Tip #4

Use "...request the honour of your presence" for ceremonies taking place in a religious setting and "...request the pleasure of your company" for ceremonies taking place at a non religious location.

Wedding Invitation Etiquette Tip #5

Invitations should be sent to both members of a couple, even if the bride knows only one of them or if only one of them is expected to attend.
