Sample wedding invitation texts: introduction for names
Every couple has their own communication style , and this is the starting point for figuring out what tone of voice they want to give their event.
There are couples who are more direct and spontaneous, using informal styles in every part of their story, and couples who are more elegant, refined, and care about setting a solemn tone in their lives.
Let us now look at concrete examples of these styles to include in the introduction of your names.
Formal style for your wedding invitations
Example 1: โMario Rossi and Anna Bianchi joyfully announce their wedding to be held on June 20, 2025 at…โ
Example 2: โMario Rossi and Anna Bianchi are pleased to announce their marriage, which will be held on June 20, 2025 at…โ
Example 3: โMario Rossi and Anna Bianchi invite you to attend their wedding, which will be held on June 20, 2025 at…โ
Informal style for your wedding invitations
Example 1: โWe are going to say YES! Sara and Luke are expecting you on June 20, 2025 to celebrate their wedding together, which will be celebrated in the church/location…โ
In this case you could also announce it with the same tone of voice as the theme you have chosen for the wedding.
Example 2: Wedding by the Sea quoting โAmid the waves of the sea and the sand dunes, Sara and Luke will be married on June 15, 2025 at…โ
Example 3: Harry Potter-themed wedding quoting “We are pleased to inform you that you are officially invited to Luca & Sara’s magical wedding. The ๐ป๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐…. Oops, our journey together is about to start and it would not be the same without you! We look forward to an enchanted day on September 13, 2025 at [location].”
Iban in wedding invitations: what to write to include it
If you prefer to receive money instead of physical gifts because perhaps you already have everything, do not hesitate to communicate your banking credentials to guests.
This is a modern solution, which you can adopt by adding a card to the invitations with a nice or touching phrase. Remember to specify the account holder as well, so as not to risk the transfer not going through.
Here are some concrete examples of how you can following a more or less informal style.
- Example 1: “Our greatest gift is your presence, but if you would like to help us realize the journey of our dreams, this is our IBAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX made out to “NAME AND SURNAME”
- Example 2: Memories are more important to us than objects. If you want, you can contribute to our honeymoon. IBAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX made out to “NAME AND SURNAME”
- Example 3: We already feel rich in love! But if you would like to make a contribution to the honeymoon, here is our IBAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX made out to โNAME AND SURNAMEโ
- Example 4: Memories matter to us! If you would like to help us create new ones, you can contribute to our honeymoon IBAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX made out to โNAME AND SURNAMEโ
- Example 5: The best gift we could receive is your presence on this special day, but if you would like to make a small gift to us, you can contribute to our honeymoon IBAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX made out to โNAME AND SURNAMEโ
RSVP: confirmation of attendance at the wedding
As we have already seen, adding an RSVP request-that is, to confirm whether or not you will be present-is critical to your management of the day and to finalizing arrangements with the venue.
It is often attached as a separate card or sentence at the end of the invitation, with a date by which to confirm and following that the contacts to send the response to.
Here are some examples of RSVPs you can take as inspiration for your day.
Example 1: We kindly ask you to notify us of your attendance by DATE.
Example 2: Please give kind confirmation by DATE.
Example 3: Let us know if you will be there by DATE.
Extra tips for original wedding invitations
Choosing the Perfect Design and Font
The style of the invitation should reflect the theme of your wedding, so you will need to think about what feelings you want to convey through your design. A few tips to follow for your wedding invitation graphics:
Classic Wedding
elegant fonts (Didot, Playfair Display, etc.) and high-quality paper in shades of white, ivory or pearl.
Modern Wedding
minimal design, sans serif fonts (Montserrat, Tailway, etc.) with touches of color in the graphics or with already colored cards/envelopes.
Rustic Wedding
more casual fonts (Send Flowers, Sacramento, Satisfy etc.), recycled paper with natural elements, perhaps plantable with flower seeds inside, and neutral natural colors.
