How to on a wedding invitation
How to choose the right wedding invitation?
Choosing the right wedding invitation can be a surprisingly challenging task for a fiancé. There are many options and variations, but not all invitations are suitable for every wedding. When choosing, it is important to focus on several factors, such as the wedding style, the personality of the fiancé and the target group of guests. The wedding invitation should be tasteful and stylishly matched to the overall appearance of the wedding day. However, there is no need to stick to traditional rules if you do not like them. The personality of the fiancé should be reflected in the invitation and therefore should be such that it represents you both. The location of the wedding is also an important factor in the choice. For example, if you hold a traditional wedding ceremony in a church, classic, elegant invitations will be preferable to modern or extravagant ones. Remember that the wedding invitation is the first impression your guests will make of you and your wedding, so it should be carefully selected and created with love and care.
Text on the wedding invitation
The most frequently asked question when ordering a wedding invitation is whether the text can be changed. Of course, changing the text is possible and it is up to you what text you put in the invitation. Choosing the most appropriate text may not be easy at all - we try to convey basic information such as who is getting married, when and where the wedding will take place, but at the same time we want to be original. If you are not sure about the text, you can be inspired by the following samples or by the whole range of our texts directly in the templates next to the invitation. Choosing the appropriate text is very subjective and depends on personal preferences. In the end, however, the option that catches your heart the most always wins.

What is the most used text on a wedding invitation?
If you are looking for a universal text for a wedding invitation that will appear formal and dignified, regardless of the circumstances, then it is best to reach for the most widely used text. This traditional text for a wedding invitation is concise and simple, yet it contains all the important information, such as the date, place and time of the ceremony.
They are pleased to announce that they will be married

If you are planning a secret wedding without guests, it is better not to specify a specific date or place of the ceremony. However, such wedding invitations are rather exceptional. More often than not, invitations about a wedding already performed are sent out and sent out after the ceremony. In such cases, it is not necessary to specify the time of the ceremony.

What information should the wedding invitation contain?
When making a wedding invitation, it is important to remember that the address at the bottom is not the address of the ceremonial venue. You should only give the address of the ceremonial venue if it is new or unknown, right after the name of the venue in the text itself. If you give the address at the bottom, guests might take it as your home address and send congratulations to you in the wrong place. In fact, the address of the betrothed's domicile is usually given at the bottom, for example, precisely for the possibility of sending congratulations. In addition to basic information about the date, place and time of the wedding, you can also include a verse or a website with details about the wedding day on the invitation. A link to a website is most often provided by the betrothed's address if they do not wish to include it on the invitation or there is not enough space for both.
What to pay attention to when writing?
When writing wedding invitations, it is important to be sure to use proper spelling. For example, the words church, castle or chapel should be written with a small initial. Another important principle is to write the month when the wedding will take place in words rather than just a number, in order to minimise any misunderstanding on the part of guests when counting the months. In addition, the full name should also be given with the surname of the bride and groom. If the layout of the invitation does not allow this or you want to include only your names first, we recommend listing the names, including the surname, at the end of the invitation. For example, above the address of the common residence. If there are any special instructions, such as a dress code or where to hand over wedding gifts, we recommend listing these rather on separate table invitations or gift cards that can be found in the related products of the invitation.
How does an wedding information cards differ from an wedding invitation?
These terms are often confused, even though they have different functions. Wedding invitations are used to announce a planned wedding and usually contain basic information about the date, place and time of the ceremony. On the other hand, the wedding information cards to the table is a separate printed document, which is used when not all those who receive the wedding invitation are invited to the wedding table. The cards to the table is therefore a special type of card, which is used to invite only those who receive it together with the wedding invitation. It therefore lets guests know that they are also invited to the wedding table, celebration or banquet. Thanks cards to the table, you also have the possibility to invite each guest to another part of the day. Very close friends and family already to the wedding table and other friends up to a later evening celebration from a certain hour. This custom is very popular and respected in the Czech Republic and Slovakia because it facilitates the organization and planning of the wedding table and the host team.
The following texts are most often found on cards to the wedding table:
We cordially invite you
to the wedding table.
We cordially invite you
at a wedding reception.
The cards can also be used for an invitation to a wedding banquet or evening celebration:
We cordially invite you
to the wedding banquet.
We cordially invite you
to the evening celebration.
The text can also be supplemented with the time and place of the event.
How to avoid embarrassments
Some fiancés are willing to spend a lot of time and energy creating wedding invitation themselves. Unfortunately, they often underestimate that it is not enough to achieve an aesthetically good look just a special font, the shape of a notice or the picture used. So many of the results of amateur designs often seem juvenile to tragicomic. If you want to present your invitations in the best possible light, please consider advice from friends or even professionals in the field of wedding prints. The recipients of the invitations cannot experience the same emotions as the creators, and the only way to get them on the right wavelength is through the resulting design and quality of execution. However, achieving this goal is not easy and requires many years of experience. So if you don't want to complicate your wedding preparations, it's better to leave the printing of wedding invitations to professionals who guarantee you a good result. If you really care about making your own invitations, it may be a better choice to choose a catalogue invitation and add a personal element to it, instead of trying to invent something completely new and original.
