Invite Wording
Your invitation wording and font is very important, as well as letting the guests know details such as date, time and venue your wording will also set the tone of the day. So, whether you are having a formal or informal wedding choose the best wording and font to convey this to your guests.
Remember to include the RSVP details either at the bottom of the invitation or as a separate card to be returned.
Include details such as date to be returned, guests attending, vegetarian option and any dietary requirements.
Below we have some examples that may help but these can be changed to suit your wedding day.
