Last but not least, each invitation has a complimentary wedding invitation set that includes all essential wedding stationery: RSVP, reception card, save dates and more. All with sophisticated calligraphy, minimalist illustrations, vintage monogram and formal inspiration.
Etiquette Rules for Formal Wedding Invitations
While all weddings have an element of etiquette, formal weddings are even more meticulous in this regard. You’ll still want to send them out to everyone on your guest list between 6 and 8 weeks prior to your big date. For formal occasions, there is no exception – traditional wedding invitations must be mailed out the old-fashioned way. All the pertinent details must be present on a formal wedding invitation though the language and wording will be more austere. Using full names, spelling out the dates, and even using Roman numerals are common on formal invitations.
Traditional Wedding Invitation Wording
Gift and registry information should never be included on any wedding invitation, let alone a formal one. From the very start, it should be all about class and sophistication. It’s not every day that you get to dress up, drink champagne all day, and be followed by cameras like a famous celebrity so do keep in line with formalities.
Formal wedding invitations must be properly addressed too so there is no confusion as to who is invited in the household. Generally speaking, formal ceremonies are usually for adults only. You may indicate as such by simply inviting “Mr. and Mrs.” on your invitations. Single guests may be clued into bringing a date by offering “plus guest” on the envelope if you so desire.
Don’t forget that our invitation suites can also match your formal themes and tie in the styles together for an unforgettable event!
