Feel free to get creative, just remember to include all the basics as listed above. If you\u2019re stuck, we have some great wording examples below.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<h3><strong>Somewhere In-Between<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If your wedding style is more of a hybrid, try reading examples of formal and casual invitations to decide which you prefer, and what elements you want to incorporate from each. You could use informal wording but include your parent's names, or use formal wording but with a casual design. As long as the basics are all there, you can mix-and-match to your heart\u2019s content.<\/p>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">That should give you a solid starting point to invitations that fit perfectly with your wedding. Remember the basics, keep an eye on your etiquette, and the rest is up to your creativity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>What should your invitations say?<\/h2>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Most important \u2013 and most obvious \u2013 is that your critical information is all there.

The names of your parents may be included, or a reference to your families, especially if they are contributing financially to the wedding. Typically wording for wedding invitations from the bride and groom (rather than from other hosts) is more casual across the whole invite, but there are no rules!<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>What to include on the invitation? <\/strong>The wedding of course! But you should also specify if the event is a ceremony only, reception, an afternoon tea, or a weekend-long extravaganza. You should also give hints as to the style of the wedding so that guests can dress and behave appropriately.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>When? <\/strong>Dates and times need to be precise and accurate.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Where? List your venues. <\/strong>It\u2019s up to you if the full address is written out or if the name of the place is sufficient, but check how easily your guests can find the correct location with a quick Google search.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>And Also: Don\u2019t forget your RSVP details! <\/strong>You may also include the dress code, although this can also be communicated on your wedding website or just through word of mouth if you prefer to keep it simple.
