There are no strict rules with wedding invitations, however you should try to match the style and wording of your invitation to the style of your  wedding.

For an informal style wedding any of the wide variety of handwritten notes available from newsagents and department stores would be appropriate. For more formal weddings, consider using a stationer to assist with wedding invitation design, wording and delivery. Remember to order/buy more invitations than you initially need, as you do not want to find yourself short when those last minute invitations need to be sent.

Invitations should be sent out at least 8 weeks before the wedding, and if possible much earlier for interstate and overseas guests.

Your wedding invitation should include the following:

• Date and time of the Wedding

• Addresses of ceremony and reception venues

• Dress Code guidance. ie. formal, casual, fancy dress theme.....

• Include a map if your wedding locations will be difficult for certain guests to find.

• RSVP date

Sample Wording

Here is an example of how a traditional wedding invitation is worded.

Mr and Mrs John Smith
request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter
Jane Louise
with
John Gregory Jones
at St Mary's Church, Smithtown
on Saturday, 25 Nov 2000 at 2 pm
and afterwards at
The Grand Mariner Function Centre
22 Swordfish Pde, Smithtown

There are many variations to this standard format depending on who is hosting the wedding and how formal it will be, so please adjust accordingly.
